Singapore...

Post by Vоvan »

Well, I'm here, for two weeks. Staying awake for now (first day).

What is worth seeing (except shopping malls) within walking distance from Fairmont Singapore ? Where it makes sense to go for the weekend (next weekend). From what I know so far - peeps here have a tendency to party through like 4AM (which is not very appealing to me for now, maybe because I'm jetlagged)

Any suggestions welcome!

Spasibo!

Taxis in Singapore are cheap and MRT (metro) is excellent, do not confine yourself to just one area. :-) Things to see:
- Sentosa island
- Botanical Gardens
- The "historical" part of the city is really small

But Singapore is mostly about going out. Try
- Eat chili crab at East Coast Seafood Center
- Try durian (you may go to Geylang to get a best selection of durian and other fruits, just be aware that it is also a red-lights district)
- Go to the Clarke Quay in the evening
- We usually take our friends (who visit SG for the first time) to the "Orchard Towers" - there is a bunch of "shemale" nightclubs there ;-)
