Visiting the Lion City of Southeast Asia? Excellent idea! Singapore is a vibrant and colorful city with ultramodern infrastructures and a world class living environment.
Singapore is a shopping Mecca not only to locals but to international tourists as well. There are plenty of shopping areas in this city state, including VivoCity which is considered to be the largest retail and lifestyle destination in Singapore. You should definitely visit Orchard Road with its high concentration of shopping malls. Have fun shopping!
The fun does not end when the sun goes down. It continues well into the night with the presence of local but world class nightclubs and bars. Visitors can also check out the casinos at Marina Bay and Sentosa. Although the casino scene of Singapore pales in comparison to Las Vegas, it is still worth checking out. Tourists enter these casinos for free!
To fully enjoy your Singapore experience, try riding the famous trishaw. This mode of transport is a 3-wheeled bicycle taxi. Trishaw operators and drivers offer sightseeing tours
Another sightseeing vehicle option is the bumboat. Take a sightseeing cruise along Singapore River to check out the beautiful and modern skyline of Singapore. You might also want to check out the Southern Islands, a group of uninhabited islands ideal for swimming and picnics.
Of course, you should definitely check out the many interesting sights. Chinatown and Little India offer a glimpse into the lives and culture of people from China and India. You’ll find shops selling wares, trinkets, and delicacies from these countries.
Also, don’t miss Sentosa Island and its fantasy land, butterfly park, underwater world, beaches, and many others.
