TOP 10 BEST TOURIST ATTRACTIONS IN SINGAPORE
2
1.MARINA BAY (SINGAPORE)
MARINA BAY IN SINGAPORE HAS UNDERGONE A
TRANSFORMATION OF EPIC PROPORTIONS. ONCE A QUIET
BODY OF WATER AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE SINGAPORE
RIVER, THIS AREA NOW STANDS AS A SPECTACULAR
EXAMPLE OF HOW THIS MINISCULE COUNTRY HAS COME TO
BE ONE OF THE WORLDS MOST LUXURIOUS TRAVEL
DESTINATIONS. OVERLAPPING THE FINANCIAL
DISTRICT, CLARKE QUAY AND THE CENTRAL CIVIC
DISTRICT TOWARDS THE NORTH, MARINA BAY BOATS SOME
OF SINGAPORES MOST ICONIC HOTELS, SKYSCRAPERS,
AND ATTRACTIONS. IT DIFFICULT TO IGNORE THE
ICONIC MARINA BAY SANDS RESORT TOO, WHICH ITSELF
IS HOME TO A SUBSTANTIAL LIST OF GREAT THINGS TO
DO AND SEE. THIS SECTION IS YOUR GUIDE TO MARINA
BAY FROM ALL THE BEST HOTELS TO RESTAURANTS,
SHOPPING, NIGHTLIFE AND ATTRACTIONS WEVE GOT
IT ALL!

2.CLARKE QUAY
  • NIGHTLIFE IN CLARKE QUAY IS WHAT THIS PARTY HUB
    OF SINGAPORE IS REALLY FAMOUS. DAZZLING LIGHTS,
    BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE AND BUZZING NIGHTCLUBS THESE
    ARE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT IMPRINT THEMSELVES ON
    YOUR MIND THE FIRST TIME YOU VISIT CLARKE QUAY,
    BOAT QUAY AND A KALEIDOSCOPE OF CONCEPT BARS AND
    PUBS ALONG THE SINGAPORE RIVER. A MIND-BOGGLING
    SELECTION OF THEMES AND ATTRACTIONS ROUND OUT
    YOUR CHOICE OF AFTER-SUNSET INDULGENCE.
    ORIGINALLY A CENTRE OF COMMERCE ALONG THE
    SINGAPORE RIVER, CLARKE QUAY IS NOWADAYS A
    LABYRINTH OF RESTAURANTS, CONCEPT BARS, RETAIL
    STORES AND RECREATION OUTLETS. TRY BAR COCOON OR
    BAMBOO BAR AT THE FORBIDDEN CITY, LUNAR ASIAN
    FUSION BAR FOR GREAT SHOWS, OR BAR OPIUME AT THE
    EMPRESS PLACE BY THE RIVERSIDE AND THEN ATTICA OR
    CANVAS FOR AN AFTER-HOURS RAVE.

3.UNIVERSAL STUDIOS SINGAPORE
  • UNIVERSAL STUDIOS SINGAPORE WAS THE LATEST
    ADDITION TO SINGAPORES ATTRACTIONS LIST. OPENED
    IN 2010, UNIVERSAL STUDIOS SINGAPORE HAS SEVEN
    THEMED SECTIONS WITH COUNTLESS RIDES AND SHOWS,
    ALL RELATED TO MAJOR HIT MOVIES. THE PARK IS PART
    OF THE US4.5 BILLION RESORTS WORLD SENTOSA
    DEVELOPMENT. START OFF IN HOLLYWOOD. STROLLING
    DOWN HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD WILL MAKE YOU THINK THAT
    YOURE IN THE STATES, NOT IN A TROPICAL ASIAN
    COUNTRY. THIS IS THE MAIN SHOPPING AREA OF THE
    PARK. NEW YORK IS BASED OF COURSE ON THE CITY OF
    NEW YORK AND HERE YOU CAN HAVE YOUR PHOTO SNAPPED
    WITH MOVIE STARS SUCH AS CHARLIE CHAPLIN AND
    MARILYN MONROE. CONTINUE ON TO SCI-FI CITY
    FEATURING A PAIR OF THE WORLDS TALLEST
    INTERTWINING ROLLER COASTERS AMONG OTHER THINGS
    AND THEN TO ANCIENT EGYPT WHERE YOU WILL BE FACED
    WITH TWO MASSIVE GUARD STATUES. THE ATMOSPHERE IS
    TRULY THAT OF ANCIENT EGYPT SO GET IN TO
    EXPERIENCE THE REVENGE OF THE MUMMY RIDE, A
    MUST FOR ADULTS BUT NOT QUITE THE BEST THING FOR
    YOUNG KIDS.

4.GARDENS BY THE BAY
  • GARDENS BY THE BAY IS A HUGE, COLOURFUL,
    FUTURISTIC PARK IN THE BAY AREA OF SINGAPORE. THE
    FAMOUS SUPERTREE STRUCTURES OFFER AN IMPRESSIVE
    SKYWALK OVER THE GARDENS, OVER-SIZED
    SEASHELL-SHAPED GREENHOUSES RECREATE CHILLY
    MOUNTAIN CLIMATES AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF TREES
    AND PLANTS TO DISCOVER, MAKING THIS DESTINATION
    GREAT FUN FOR BOTH KIDS AND ADULTS. THE BEST
    PLACE TO GRASP THE SIZE OF GARDENS BY THE BAY IS
    FROM THE TOP OF MARINA BAY SANDS, WHICH SITS
    DIRECTLY OPPOSITE THE PARK, THE SPACE ENCOMPASS
    250 ACRES OF RECLAIMED LAND ON THE WATERFRONT.
    GETTING HERE IS EASY, EITHER VIA WALKWAYS FROM
    THE HOTEL, GIVING YOU AN ELEVATED VIEW OF THE
    GARDENS, OR TAKING THE SLIGHTLY LONGER RIVERSIDE
    PROMENADE TO ENTER THE PARK NEAR THE TWO DOMES.
    WALKING AROUND THE PARK WONT COST YOU A CENT BUT
    IF YOU WANT TO STEP INSIDE THE CLIMATE-CONTROLLED
    CONSERVATORIES, OR WALK AMONGST THE SUPERTREES,
    THERE IS A FEE. THE MAIN PARK AREA IS OPEN FROM
    900 TO 2100.

5.CHINATOWN
  • CHINATOWN, WITH ITS COLOURFUL PERANAKAN
    SHOP-HOUSES AND HANDFUL OF HISTORICAL
    ATTRACTIONS, MAKES FOR A PLEASANT STROLL. IT IS
    DIVIDED INTO FOUR MAIN DISTRICTS, NAMELY KRETA
    AYER, TELOK AYER, TANJONG PAGAR AND BUKIT PASOH,
    BUT THE CENTRE OF ACTIVITIES REVOLVES AROUND
    SMITH AND PAGODA STREETS. CHINATOWN OFFERS A LOT
    MORE THAN JUST THE RESTORED SHOPS AND ETHNIC
    PLACES OF WORSHIP, SUCH AS THE OLD HOKKIEN TEMPLE
    THIAN HOCK KENG, SRI MARIAMMAN HINDU TEMPLE AND
    JAMES MOSQUE, ITS A HAVEN FOR HAWKER FOOD
    LOVERS. THERES ALSO A GOOD MIX OF HOTELS HERE,
    FROM HERITAGE SHOP-HOUSE HOTELS TO FIVE-STAR
    LUXURY BOUTIQUE ACCOMMODATION. THE CHINATOWN MRT
    STATION BRINGS YOU TO THE DOORSTEP OF PAGODA
    STREET.

6.ORCHARD ROAD
  • ORCHARD ROAD IS THE EPICENTRE OF SHOPPING IN
    SINGAPORE AND IS SIMILAR TO LONDONS OXFORD
    STREET OR HONG KONGS NATHAN ROAD. THIS BUSTLING
    BOULEVARD GOT ITS NAME AFTER THE NUTMEG AND
    PEPPER PLANTATIONS THAT ONCE LINED IT IN THE
    1800S. FLANKED ON BOTH SIDES BY LOCAL AND
    INTERNATIONAL DEPARTMENT STORES, TINY BOUTIQUES,
    OFFICES, SPAS, BEAUTY SALONS, HOTELS,
    ENTERTAINMENT SPOTS, RESTAURANTS, AND CAFES, ONE
    COULD SPEND A WHOLE DAY TRAWLING THE STRETCH
    STARTING FROM TANGLIN MALL ON TANGLIN ROAD DOWN
    TO PLAZA SINGAPURA AT THE LOWER END OF ORCHARD
    ROAD. SHOPPING MALLS IN ORCHARD ROAD ARE STOCKED
    WITH PRACTICALLY EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN FROM
    APPAREL, CONSUMER ELECTRONIC ITEMS,
    LOCAL/INTERNATIONAL FASHION LABELS AND
    HOUSEWARES. THERE IS ALWAYS SOME KIND OF FAIR OR
    ACTIVITY TAKING PLACE IN THE MALLS AND CENTRES SO
    THERE IS NEVER A DULL MOMENT. AND IF YOU ARE
    WEARY, TAKE A BREATHER AT ONE OF THE MANY
    ALFRESCO SPOTS ALONG THE ROAD AND WATCH THE WORLD
    GO BY. THE CHANGING SKYLINE ON ORCHARD NEVER
    FAILS TO AMAZE. MALLS OR BUILDINGS ARE EITHER
    SPROUTING UP OR BEING SPRUCED UP TO KEEP UP WITH
    COMPETITION. BUSKERS AND PERFORMING ARTISTES DO
    TAKE TO THE SIDEWALKS ON WEEKENDS. ON SATURDAY
    NIGHT, ORCHARD ROAD TAKES ON A VIBRANCY WHEN
    PARTICIPATING OUTLETS EXTEND THEIR SHOPPING HOURS
    TILL 1100.

    AIR-CONDITIONED CAPSULES CAN CARRY UP TO 28
    PASSENGERS AND A COMPLETE ROTATION OF THE WHEEL
    TAKES APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES. IF SHOPPING IS
    YOUR THING, THERE ARE PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITIES
    HERE FROM LUXURY WATCHES TO JEWELLERY BUT ITS
    NOT ALL ABOUT EXTRAVAGANCE YOU CAN SAMPLE
    VARIOUS TYPES OF DELICIOUS FOOD AT MANY OF THE
    CITY-STATES RESTAURANTS AS WELL AS RELAXING AT A
    SPA FACILITY OFFERING SUCH TREATMENTS AS A DR.
    FISH SPA AND FOOT REFLEXOLOGY. AN ACTIVITY NOT

10.LITTLE INDIA AND ARAB STREET
  • ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING ASPECTS OF SINGAPORE IS
    THE DIVERSITY OF ITS NEIGHBORHOODS. YES, THE
    COUNTRY IS A SAVVY SHOPPERS' PARADISE, BUT YOU'LL
    ALSO FIND RICH TRADITIONS, DELICIOUS FOODS AND
    LOCAL CHARACTER IN ITS OLDER QUARTERS. NOWHERE IS
    THIS TRUER THAN IN LITTLE INDIA AND ARAB STREET
    (ALSO KNOWN AS THE ARAB QUARTER). THE INDIAN
    COMMUNITY HAS A RICH HISTORY IN SINGAPORE, AND
    THIS ENCLAVE DATES BACK MORE THAN 200 YEARS.
    SINGAPORE'S NAME ACTUALLY DERIVES FROM THE
    SANSKRIT WORDS FOR LION CITY, ACCORDING TO LITTLE
    INDIA'S OFFICIAL WEBSITE. TODAY, THE NEIGHBORHOOD
    IS A THRIVING, COLORFUL PLACE WHERE TRADITIONAL
    HOLIDAYS ARE CELEBRATED, AND VISITORS CAN OBSERVE
    WORSHIP AND ACTIVITY AT THE SRI VEERAMAKALIAMMAN
    TEMPLE OR PURCHASE SARIS WHILE MINGLING WITH
    LOCAL VENDORS.
