Reasons You Should Visit Singapore

Treat Our Senses In Singapore

A dream destination, this little island nation and city-state is located in Southeast Asia, right off the southern point of the Malay Peninsula. Imagine famous landmarks expertly arranged to create a breathtaking skyline that blends in perfectly with the surrounding scenery; an elite airport; mouthwatering cuisine; and four official languages that contribute to its rich cultural diversity. There are a lot of activities and attractions here, so choosing which to enjoy first will be your largest choice.

Tour Ang Mo Kio

Wander around the hip Ang Mo Kio neighborhood to get a taste of modern Singaporean living. You'll observe how this progressive nation, where 80% of Singaporeans reside, creatively uses high rises and available space in its HDB (Housing Development Board) homes. The 22-mile (36-kilometer) Park Connector Network bicycle path links all of the nation's main estates and promotes an outdoor lifestyle, both of which are essential to the inhabitants' way of life. Bird-singing is a popular strange hobby here; elderly people will be urging their pets to out-warble the others in anticipation of a tournament that takes place every two weeks and offers a prize pool of S$100,000 (£79K).

Eat At A Hawker Centre

Without having at least one lunch at a hawker center, no vacation to Singapore is complete. Numerous reasonably priced food vendors in these covered complexes provide classic Singaporean fare, including as Chinese, Indian, Malay, and Indonesian cuisine. You'll most likely find that the Hainanese chicken rice is the best rice you've ever had. Hawkers come in many shapes and sizes, and they'll be busy, but once you "chope," or reserve, a table—a tissue will do—it's yours. Any brief wait will be worthwhile visiting the opulent, 19th-century Lau Pa Sat in the CBD, which is arguably the most well-known in the nation. Drink juice produced from fresh calamansi, which are little delicious limes, to go with your preferred dish.

Take A Sidecar Tour

Take a sidecar trip at night for an unforgettable perspective of Singapore. This Vespa trip, which was created by Simon Wong, will take you through several neighborhoods and allow you to choose your route. You may select to go past historical places, famous spots on the island, or particular districts like Kampong Gelam, the lovely Muslim Quarter. It will take you one to three hours and cover a large portion of Singapore. People on the sidewalks will wave to you, and your committed rider will gladly stop for a picture if you see a good one.

Drop By Raffles Hotel

Steeped in history, the renowned Raffles Hotel first opened its doors in 1887 during the colonial era. Among its illustrious guests have been Charlie Chaplin, John Wayne, Michael Jackson, and British aristocracy. It was dubbed after the British diplomat Sir Stamford Raffles, who established modern-day Singapore, and went on to become the most legendary hotel in the Far East. This 115-suite property, which exudes luxury in every detail, is consistently ranked among the top three hotels worldwide. In the Long Bar, where eating monkey nuts and then tossing the shells on the ground is still a centuries-old custom, don't forget to order a Singapore Sling.

Grab A Bite At Satay Street

For those who enjoy satay, Boon Tat Street, which is outside Lau Pa Sat, becomes a unique place after sundown. Cars are prohibited from 7 p.m. until midnight in accordance with a tradition that dates back more than 30 years, and ten satay vendors set up carts along the street in preparation for hundreds of hungry diners to eat al fresco. Order as many of the grilled skewers of mutton, beef, chicken, or prawns as you desire. They are best enjoyed with a couple jugs of Tiger beer or Coke. They come with little rice cakes called ketupat and a mildly flavored peanut sauce. The vibrant environment, unique to Singapore, is created when residents and visitors interact.

Shop At Orchard Road

Known for its numerous restaurants and retail stores, Singapore's version of Oxford Street is a livelier and longer counterpart of London's Oxford Street. A visit here will leave you with a full heart and empty pocketbook. Orchard Road is a busy street with plenty of food courts and hotels to refuel in between retail centers selling anything from inexpensive and colorful souvenirs to pricey haute couture. Even if you're not willing to blow the dough, it's enjoyable to spend a few hours here because it's tree-lined and tidy as a pin (like most locations in Singapore).

Lunch At Coconut Club

Visit the Coconut Club on Beach Road to sample nasi lemak, the national dish, in a classy setting. The aromatic rice cooked with pandan leaves and coconut milk tastes amazing when served with side dishes like fried eggs, roasted almonds, anchovies, cucumbers, and a tablespoon of sambal (chili paste). Additionally, get the Ayam Goreng Berempah, which is fried chicken with a particular fiery sauce. A few doors down is Birds of Paradise Gelato Boutique, where the exclusive botanical flavors are too good to refuse. Make sure to leave space for ice cream.
