Here you will be able to ascend to the summit of this waterfall on the elevator and climb down along the eye-catching ramps.

You will see that Cloud Forest and the adjoining Flower Dome both feature climate control, meaning that you will be comfortable on your visit to these attractions.
Going shopping at Orchard Road is always a good choice on rainy days in Singapore.

You can have a relaxed drink at Clarke Quay at different times of the day but when it is raining you will have an additional excuse to do so.
