1. Orchard Road

The iconic Orchard Road is a shoppers’ paradise. With a vast variety of luxurious air-conditioned above ground as well as underground shopping malls, you are sure to make a purchase here! Orchard Road provides access to Singapore’s efficient rail network and bus system.

Enjoy the numerous restaurants and cafes too, and don’t miss out on the renowned ice cream sandwich vendors selling these bargain priced treats from their little refrigerated carts. 🙂

2. Merlion Park

Singapore’s famous half fish, half lion landmark, is a wondrous sight situated at Merlion Park, One Fullerton, close to Singapore’s business precinct. The 8.6 metre sculpture stands before you continuously spouting water from its mouth, creating a photographer’s paradise. Enjoying the evening sunsets at this popular tourist attraction is a must.

3. Singapore Zoo Night Safari

Visiting Singapore’s night Zoo was a completely different and unique experience I would highly recommend. Suitable for all ages, the Zoo houses more than 1,000 nocturnal animals, so you are able to observe these creatures at their most active period of the day. Included is a night show, hop on open sided tram ride and four individual, pedestrian only walking trails. For a Zoo experience like no other make sure you check out the Night Safari!

4. Gardens by the Bay

Discover this award-winning Conservatory, showcasing horticulture, sustainability and unique architectural design. Gardens by the Bay is an unmissable attraction in Singapore. It is quite easy to spend half a day here exploring its beauty, and don’t forget to savour the local authentic dining experience at Satay by the Bay, before watching Garden Rhapsody, a wonderful visual and audio show each night.

5. Sentosa Island Resort World

This large resort complex is the home to world-class Michelin restaurants, exclusive hotels, a Casino and a variety of tourist attractions, such as Universal Studios, Trick Eye Museum and the S.E.A Aquarium. This entertainment precinct is an attraction not to be missed and boasts fun for all ages.

    Wonderful post Lorelle. Must admit when we were in Singapore it was new year and so much was closed. But still a beautiful place.

    Never been to Singapore – hopefully one day – but all of these sound great!! We watched a TV show recently about the Marina Bay Sands Hotel which whetted our appetites to visit even more.

    What a lovely photo of you right there, Lorelle. I was quite young when I went to Singapore and my only memory of the zoo there is watching colourful macaws and the sight of a rake thin man wedged within the wide open jaws of a crocodile. He was relaxing within those jaws, smiling serenely all long. I have never been able to wipe it away from my mind, though the gods know, I want to.
    The idea of nocturnal sightings sound so interesting. I do not think I got to do it with my parents. xx

    Gardens by the Bay is simply stunning. We visited in August and I would love to see it in a different season. I’ve been to the zoo but not at night. I will remember the night tour for our next visit.

    I love seeing Singapore through your eyes, Lorelle! You have captured the scenes of familiar and not-so-familiar places so beautifully!

    My favourite is the one of you in the Renoir painting – was it taken at the Trick Eye Museum?

    Agree with you completely. These are must-see sights in Singapore. Go to Kidzania as well if you are with kids. There is also Pulau Batam and Bintan for those who love the sea.

    We’ve only ever been to Singapore twice on stopovers. Your post shows me how little we saw there. I only remember Clark Quay really. Next time we must stay longer and have a good look. Thank you for sharing Amanda.

        Hi Lorelle, (apologies, I think I called you Amanda – getting my blogs mixed up) – I’ve just counted back, and it’s fifteen years since we went through Singapore. No wonder I can’t remember much…..

        There seems to be a lot of us who visited Singapore at this stage with the same memories as well. It has definitely changed from that “stopover” country it once was.
        Have a great day. 😊

    Lots of fun memories of my (long ago) trip to Singapore coming back – the night safari was fantastic, would love to do that again, and Gardens by the Bay is high on my list as I visited before that opened. I suspect my daughter would love Sentosa too. Thanks for linking up with #citytripping

    Hi
    I know people here like the militant Negro. I toured Asia but I can’t remember if I was in Singapore. I almost became a travel blogger but now I blog about blogging tips.
    I met you at Naya’s blog party. Maybe you can check out my blog if you need blogging tips. I also have blog parties like Naya.

    This needs lots more food! The food there was gorgeous!
