Opened in 1994 the Singapore night zoo has proven to be one of the country's top attractions. It is, in fact, one of the world's first nocturnal zoos. The zoo is spread across 40 hectares of land and is home to over 130 various species of animals that amount up to about a thousand in all. The park consists of themed landscapes which make up the homes for animals from across the world. Your nocturnal ride will take you past the enclaves of Himalayan Tahr, wolves, bharal, Asian rhinos, vultures, striped hyenas, sloth bears and other fascinating creatures. The animals can be observed unhindered as they indulge in their nightly rituals. You can opt to take the tram safari across the park or take on a walking trail; the latter is loads of fun for visitors with children. If you are visiting Singapore for the first time check into a hotel near Harbourfront Singapore for access to the best things to do in Singapore at night.
