A Taste of Singapore

As my adventure abroad continued, I found myself in Singapore. I relished every opportunity to experience and explore a new place. My time in Singapore was quite short but still incredible. It was not my favourite stop of the trip but I was still amazed by the sights!

A lot of time in Singapore was spent exploring on foot, taking in the stunning architecture and experiencing its multiculturalism. The first day was spent wandering through Chinatown, Little India and the downtown core. I saw some incredible buildings, bridges, places of worship, and landmarks. Enjoy the photos below:

After walking for hours, we made our way to Gardens by the Bay – one of the most famous locations in Singapore. It was incredible! The park is huge so plan accordingly if you want to see everything. We started at the Flower Dome and got to see flowers from all over the world. Plus we were there before Christmas and got to take in all of the decor! We then ventured through the Conservatory Cloud Forest which was unbelievable. The waterfall helped to create the most amazing atmosphere. It was so neat, I had never experienced something so grand inside. Finally, we took a walk through the special Christmas area, complete with fake snow and wintery treats. There’s also a nightly light and sound show that runs at 7:45 p.m. & 8:45 p.m. daily. If you have time I highly recommend checking it out.

There’s a lot to explore in this expensive and modern city. Take in the sights, stop for a drink (although you may have to drop $15-20 CAD for one) and relax. On the plus side the Hawkers Centres offer meals for those with no food allergies at only $2.00 CAD. Singapore is an interesting place and I only scratched the surface.
