Marvel at Gardens by The Bay

While this rip-roaring ‘Garden City’ gorgeously blends pristine nature escapes like the atmospheric fairytale of the Singapore Botanic Gardens and the lush orchards, lakes, and quarries of Pulau Ubin with avant-garde phenomena, such as the futuristic Hendeson Waves of undulating metal bridging verdant tropical panoramas and the vibrant, vintage waterside glamour of Clark Quay, are not to be overlooked, the wondrous horticultural realms of Gardens by the Bay steal the show! This dazzling 101-acre city garden, featuring breath-stealing Cloud Forests, musically crashing waterfalls, poetically flowering superstructures, 4-D Dragonfly Rides, and titanic eco-friendly ‘Super Trees’, presents a spectacular once-in-a-lifetime excursion.

Explore the ArtScience Museum 

Singapore has no shortage of unique museums for unforgettable edutainment, from the Museum of Ice Cream, where you can make your own slime (and eat it), swim in sprinkles, and play with delicious sundae toppings, to the Mint Museum of Toys, which features nostalgic playthings from over 40 countries harking as far back as the 1800s! However, if your tastes run more towards a tech-infused fantasy world beautifully reflecting eye-opening realities, the spine-tinglingly immersive realms of Singapore’s ArtScience Museum, riddled with profound metaphors, will satisfy the mindful wanderer in you. If you’re looking for sophisticated serviced accommodation in Singapore offering exclusive access to its diverse enticements, venture no further than Citadines Raffles Place Singapore.
