Things to Do in Singapore
Plan your days in Singapore, your way
Give Singapore three days and it gives you a bit of everything, effortlessly.
One morning at Gardens by the Bay, one evening watching the Supertrees glow.
A hawker centre lunch, chicken rice and lime juice, for the price of a coffee back home.
An afternoon wandering Kampong Glam's painted lanes and fabric shops, no plan required.
The view from the SkyPark at sunset answers why people keep coming back.
Ride the MRT somewhere at random; the city is small enough that nothing goes wrong.
Little India for dinner, banana leaf and all, because it smells too good to pass.
The Botanic Gardens for a slow morning when you need one.
A river cruise at night to tie the whole trip together in lights.
Nothing extreme, nothing missed, everything easy.
