5 Things to do in Singapore


Hey there fellow travellers!

Are you looking for a new adventure to embark on? Look no further than the stunning city-state of Singapore. This tiny country is known for its cleanliness, multiculturalism, and breathtaking architecture. Here are 5 things you must do when in Singapore.

First up, if you’re a nature lover, you absolutely must visit the Gardens by the Bay. This outstanding park is essentially a man-made forest that spans 250 acres of land. You can marvel at the over 500,000 plant species, including impressive carnivorous plants and glorious flowers. Take a stroll through the Flower Dome, the largest greenhouse in the world and soak up the sight of various impressive, air-conditioned gardens.

While you’re at Gardens by the Bay, don’t forget to check out the Supertrees. Towering between 25 and 50 meters, these trees are covered in over 162,900 plants, making them look like they’re straight out of a sci-fi movie. Make sure you head there at night to see them come to life through the light and sound show.

Next, if you’re a foodie, be sure to visit one of Singapore’s numerous hawker markets. These markets are where locals go to get their fix of mouth-watering street food. The food is cheap, tasty, and will leave you wanting more. Be sure to try the famous laksa, a spicy noodle soup or the ever-so-popular Hainanese chicken rice.

While you’re in Singapore, you will probably come across rain storms, but that doesn’t mean you need to shy away from enjoying the city’s outdoor attractions. Singapore’s rainstorms are unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Embrace the experience of the refreshing rain while walking through the city’s streets, locals will be carrying on like it’s a normal day, and before you know it, the sunshine is back.

Finally, if you’re looking for some nightlife, head out to Clarke Quay, Singapore’s nightlife hub. This bustling area is filled with restaurants, bars, and nightclubs, perfect for anyone looking for some fun. Whether you fancy a beer by the riverside or hitting the dance floor at one of the nightclubs, you’ll find something to tickle your fancy here.

All in all, Singapore is a must-visit destination for anyone in search of a unique cultural experience. Be sure to make a stop at Gardens by the Bay, enjoy some street food at the hawker markets, take in a light show at the Supertrees, dance the night away at Clarke Quay, and embrace the rainstorms that Singapore has to offer. Happy travels!
