• Have a Chai Masala or Lassi in
Little India
The Indian neighborhood of Singapore is like a small
Chennai but clean and without large crowds of
people. The main streets in the neighborhood are
Buffalo Road and Serangoon Road. In the latter you
can see the typical temple of southern India, Sri
Veerama Kaliamman.
Little India is the area with the most color in the
entire city. You will know that you have come to the
right place, by the exotic aromas that come out of
restaurants, houses and food stores
How to go to Little India?
By subway going down
to the Little India stop.
• Marvel at the skyline at the
Marina Bay Sands Hotel
Going up to the viewpoint of the
Marina Bay Sands Hotel is almost
mandatory on any visit to the city. I
recommend doing it around 5:30
a.m. And so you will see the city by
day, the sunset and the city
illuminated at night.
Going up to the viewpoint costs $
23 per person, although you can
also go to the Kudetá bar /
restaurant for free and have a
drink.
How to go to the Marina Bay Sands
Hotel?
You can go by metro going down to
the Bay Front stop.
• Spend the day on a Sentosa
Island beach
Sentosa is a small island connected to
Singapore, which they have turned into
an amusement park. In it, in addition to
museums, attractions and 'adventure'
activities, is the famous Universal
Studios Singapore.
How to get to Sentosa Island?
You can go by metro going down to the
HarbourFront Station stop and then
taking the Sentosa Express train ($ 4)
that you will find on the third floor of the
Vivo City Shopping Mall. According to the
Sentosa website, the following buses
also arrive at the Vivo City Shopping Mall:
65, 80, 93, 188, 855, 10, 30, 97, 100, 131, 143,
145, 166. You can also go by cable car ($
29) from near the Harbourfront Station
metro stop..
• Stroll through Marina Bay and the
Museum of Arts and Sciences
Marina Bay is perhaps the most famous part of
the city. This is where the famous statue of the
lion-mermaid is, the emblem of the city, the
most expensive hotels, the casino and it is
where the Singapore Formula 1 urban race
takes place. There is also the Museum of Arts
and Sciences which is in a beautiful building
shaped like a Lotus Flower (8-19h).
Every night (at 8:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.), in front
of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel, they put on an
audiovisual show in which they project, on a
water screen created by powerful fountains, a
story in images, music and fire. It's pretty good.
Similar to Hong Kong.
How to go to Marina Bay?
By subway going down to the Bay Front stop.
• Get to know a park like the
Garden by the Bay
It is a futuristic park, in which there are two
greenhouses with microclimates in which plants
with a Mediterranean climate grow. In the park
there are also the famous artificial trees that
photosynthesize and which you can climb.
Here, in addition to a huge park, the real
protagonists are the Super Trees between 25 and
50 meters high. For $ 5 you can climb the
structure they have built in the form of a bridge to
roast from one tree to another.
Entrance to the park and the entire site is free.
How to go to Garden by the Bay?
By subway going down to the Bayfront stop.
• Eat something and have a Cofi
in Chinatown
Despite being one of the most touristy
neighborhoods in the city, Chinatown is
still a good option to go to eat
something. The small neighborhood is
made up of traditional colored houses,
very well preserved. There, in addition
to good food, you will find a lot of
souvenir shops. Don't forget to have a
Cofi, the traditional Singaporean coffee.
The neighborhood where all the
Chinese immigrants who came to the
city in 1821 settled. Chinatown is the
perfect combination between the
richness of its history and an ancient
culture.
How to go to Chinatown?
By subway going down to the
Chinatown stop.
