We went to relative's house for next 2 days. After having rest and lunch we visited the famous park that was beautifully built and the views were amazing. We also did little shopping from the adjacent mall. We didn't explored much as we were quite tired and we ended our day early after having dinner.

Day 9

The next day we started early and planned for Sentosa Island. We took MRt from our home to our destination and reached at vivocity metro station.

Note- travelling through bus and metro is cheapest option for travel in singapore

From vivocity we went to Sentosa. We opted for board walk to reach Sentosa. Sentosa Island is divided into various attractions with free shuttle to all the attractions.

The casino was quite big. One can have free hot and cold beverages to save some money

This is a must do attraction as it is quite unique. I purchase the deal through klook @ 588 p.p

We also visited this place as it is quite good for photos and one can see whole of Sentosa from height and it is not chargeable. The merlion at Sentosa will cost you approx ₹1000 p.p and I didn't find it worth. Siloso beach is quite beautiful. We took 4d adventure land tickets and it was waste of money as the technology is outdated.

We took tickets from klook and I would recommend it is a must watch museum with amazing combination of extraordinary science. It took around 2 hours to cover the activity. The tickets price was approx ₹600

After this we took tickets from klook for gardens by the bay. The tickets were for the 2 domes otherwise there are no charges for the garden. This is a must see place for Singapore. The tickets price was approx ₹1000. The light and music show at the garden was amazing.

The merlion tower was 1 km walking distance from this place. We went to the tower and spent our time there.

What we saw this day made our eyes shattered. But this things we have seen in movies and it was a dream come true. We went back to the hotel at 12 as no energy is left in us.

Day 11

The next day we had ready to eat meal in breakfast. We started early and we reached the dream destination @ 10:45 am. I got tickets from makemytrip @ ₹3376

As per my views the place is quite hyped. However the tickets price were good as compared to activities. I found 3-4 rides excellent. Other rides were common or not much attractive.

The top rides being transformer 4d, cyclone battlestar Galactica and revenge of the mummy are must do rides. The waterworld show and lights camera action show were value for money with live stunts.

As per my views I found Dubai theme parks more entertaining at such price.

We exited the park @ 8 pm.

I took tickets for sea Aquarium @ 1500 p.p from klook. The aquarium is far more better than the Dubai aquarium when I compare to it. It is a must do activity in Singapore. It took around 4 hours in aquarium.

We went back to our hotel and after some rest we headed to our next destination. The tickets were roughly 1500 p.p. I find the place total waste of money as very less creatures can be seen in night. Even the show was not much interesting. We travelled through the bus.

We took bus for our next destination. We took tickets from makemytrip@1250 per head and I would say it is the best waterpark I have been to. There are 2-3 amazing rides.

The best ride being snorkeling with 20000 fishes and the shark aquarium .The experience was totally worth. We exited the park at 5 pm.

After that we headed to little India and had our dinner @ Anand bhavan @ just ₹ 500. We had dosa and samosa chaat. The taste was really good and it was a vegetarian restaurant.

We than headed to Clarke quay famous for night life. There were many clubs where one can enjoy evening along with river side. The place was crowded as well. I also tried reverse bungee for some adrenaline rush at a price of 35sgd and it is greatest experience. We than went back to our hotel and ended our day.

The place was worth a visit. One can find many souveneirs at good prices. The market has enough things to keep you entertain for 2 hours.

The bugis mall is famous for good branded products at good cost. However in the street market one can find many cheap products. The place is like Sarojini Nagar of Delhi .I found Chinatown to be more better place for shopping. By this time we were so exhausted but again it is our last day in Singapore so we just can't give up.

Even due to time constraint we were able to explore many places within a day. After this at 2 am we took cab for airport as we have morning flight .

Day 15

We reached one of the most beautiful airport in the world and really I would say it was actually worth it. Our flight was 5 hour late so we tried to explore the airport as much as possible. With famous gardens to playstation gamings we explored whole airport. the best being the biggest man made indoor waterfall in the world .

I had breakfast at the lounge with diner's club card. We were served lunch in airindia plane. I did my flights approx 11500₹ p.p.
