VivoCity, also known as VivoCity Mall, is well established on the Harbourfront Walk. The huge shopping precinct is a popular option for shoppers to discover a variety of consumer goods at some of Singapore's top lifestyle stores. Here are some other top reasons for visiting VivoCity Mall.
The eateries located around VivoCity Mall are quite similar to the most popular eateries in Singapore. However, tourists and locals prefer to head to this precinct for the fabulous food coupled with the panoramic views of the area. Enjoy sprawling views of Sentosa Island and its surroundings. Thus, booking a hotel near Harbourfront Singapore is a good choice if you like wandering around at night and enjoying a meal at outdoor restaurants, coupled with gorgeous sights. Popular accommodation options like Park Hotel Alexandra are within easy distance of VivoCity Mall and its many attractions.
Most of the top malls in Singapore offer shoppers a chance to chill on the rooftop. But the rooftop of VivoCity Mall is quite exceptional. The expansive view across the area covering the ocean and Sentosa Island is spectacular and even more magical at night. Couples out on a date will love the romantic vibes as they enjoy the views under a blanket of stars. And if you are lucky, you may see the fireworks display on Sentosa Island – another top reason for choosing Harbourfront hotels in Singapore.
This is one shopping mall where you won't get hassled by tired and bored kids. VivoCity has a lovely dipping pool on its rooftop, to let kids cool off. And on the second floor is a playground for little tykes to let off more energy, allowing parents to shop in peace. Of course, you may have to take turns about who watches the kids at the dipping pool, although it is deemed safe.
Another plus point for parents shopping at VivoCity Mall is the train, which does its rounds on the perimeter of the mall. And since it circles past the sea the views are pretty awesome. The nighttime ride comes highly recommended. The environs are cooler, and the sights are brighter. If your kids are very young, you will be able to accommodate them.
The mall regularly hosts festivals and exhibits. The Mid-Autumn Festival, for example, is very popular. Plus, regular fairs and exhibits offer the perfect opportunities to snag some good deals on perfumes, cosmetics, electronics, and household items.
VivoCity Mall has a boardwalk connecting the complex to Sentosa Island. The lovely stretch is a favoured spot for families and couples to enjoy the fresh sea breezes and expansive views. You can enjoy a stroll along the walk or perch along the rails and wait for the firework displays to start. Check the Sentosa website calendar to determine on what days the firework displays take place.
