10 Best Places to visit in Singapore

Tripoto


Singapore an island city. One of my favourite places to visit. Singapore's Changi airport is one of the best airports in the world. The airport has a miniature of the top attractions of this city. Spotted the Merlion (The popular icon of Singapore, depicted as a mythical creature with a lion's head and a fish's body), the gardens by the bay at the airport. You would definitely enjoy your pre departure wait here as a Singapore tourist. And enjoy surplus duty free shopping buying chocolates for friends home.

Before you scroll down to read about my experiences, don't forget to watch 'On My Own in Singapore' on Tripoto's Youtube channel.

MBS Marina Bay Sands - Dip in the infinity pool here and enjoy one of the best places to visit in Singapore known for its mesmerising view of the Singapore's Skyline.A beautiful place one of the most luxurious hotels in Singapore. An infinity pool with an amazing watchers gallery this place is a synonym to the word elegance. With the best amenities an exquisite shopping mall, a MRT Station make this one of the best designed hotels in the world. The wide spread breakfast buffet will definitely help you kick start your day full of energy however the only disappointment for me as a waffle lover was the waffles server for breakfast. Tip: If u pickup rooms with the view to the 'Gardens by the Bay' don't miss the music and light show from your balcony one at 8 repeat at 9 pm. :) Some perks of choosing to stay at the grand MBS :)
