When you go to Singapore you'll definitely upload a photo of you at Sentosa and another of the giant electric trees but everyone who goes there does too. Here's a list of a few great photo opportunities from off the beaten track in Singapore.
This downtown area of Singapore is best known for its concept cafés and charming bookstores. Murals line the walls and photo opportunities are in the plenty, candid or seemingly candid at least.
This street in Chinatown only comes alive after the rest of the city goes to sleep. There are many pubs and drinking joints in this neighbourhood to keep many tourists and locals alike in the locale after-hours. The streets are pedestrianized and the vibe is to die for and at least one picture for Instagram a must.
Contrary to popular belief, Singapore is not just a concrete jungle. And the green, natural kind of tree thrives here just as well as the towering lit-up kind. Bukit Timah is located on the highest hill in Singapore and is rich in bio-diversity. It's a pic that'll add a beautiful touch of green to your home screen as well as give your followers an unexpected surprise.
This gem of a building lies along Clarke's Quay and is essentially a hotel without rooms. Designed with the purpose of hosting events, the colourful and quirky rooms of this venue demand a little attention, especially the Instagram kind.
This artsy neighbourhood is home to Singapore's art galleries and museums and insta-worthy moments and is quite the vibrant street. You won't even need to step inside any of the establishments. There are many fun and eye-catching pieces everywhere; a uniqueness that demands a click.
In this garden created to celebrate the country's national flower, you'll be hard-pressed to keep yourself from snapping away. The garden is divided into 4 sections, one for each season and the plants are organised according to colour; truly an Instagrammer's paradise.
Capture the view of Beach Road from the luxury of a room at ParkRoyal on Beach Road Singapore. Show-off of your room and tell your followers you're at the best hotel in Bugis.
The glam in the name makes perfect sense when you stroll down this street. Your phone will beg for a break when you're only halfway through snapping the vibrant street art that seems to be everywhere. It is a colourful neck-of-the-wood indeed.
There is no place in Singapore more iconic than the Marina Bay Sands and as you venture into this neighbourhood you'll come across the historic shops of Joo Chiat. These buildings have been renovated and restored to the best possible condition over the years and the pastel-coloured facades demand you stop and take a pic or few.
