Durians

-
Singaporeans love durians a lot. In 2013, Singapore Kindness Movement organized a Durian Mobilization which attracted 300 people which consumed more than 1000kg of durians! In Singapore, durians are usually found in Geylang. D24 durians are simply normal. Musang King is one of the most expensive of them all. It has a sweet taste with only a little bit of bitterness. Trying durians is just like trying what Singaporeans like. After eating durians you'll feel heat so you have to eat mangosteens. Your hand will be dirty after eating durians but don't worry just wash your hands with soap and it will be nice and clean. Even though we cannot bring durians on public transport, Singaporeans still say that durians are our national fruit.

Marina Bay Sands

The Marina Bay Sands is a wonderful hotel. Located at the eastern part of Marina Bay, this 57 floor tall hotel is a wonder. There are three huge towers which look stunning. If you are hungry here, you can go to Shine at level one to enjoy a good breakfast or lunch buffet, you can also go to Shoppers by the Bay which is in another post. Level 57 is the Skypark, where you can enjoy the beautiful bird's eye view of the city; especially at the pool. At night, there is also a chocolate bar at skypark. This hotel is amazing.

National Gallery Singapore

National Gallery Singapore, the 13th stop of the Jubilee Walk, has just been renovated. It holds hundreds of wonderful paintings from still life to portraits. My personal favourite is Still Life - Flowers by Georgette Chen (A local artist) as it really captures the beautiful look of pink roses in a 'rustic' way. If you would like to get an overview of all the artworks in one place, go to the social table where you can view art pieces, combine your favourites to make posters which you can email to yourself, and send pictures to others. Feed your artistic craving at National Gallery Singapore!

Shoppes By The Bay

-
The Shoppes by the bay is the largest shopping mall in the whole of Singapore. It has hundreds of shops and about 65 restaurants with different types of cuisine. And the star attraction is the large waterfall in the centre of the mall. It has so many shops that there will surely be a shop for everyone. If you are tired, you might want to have a boat ride along a 'river' for $10 per person. You can go up to the 2nd floor and exit to the Singapore Flyer via the helix bridge (21st stop on the Jubilee Walk). This is surely paradise if you love shopping so what are you waiting for, take the MRT to Bayfront Station or use other modes of transport and you'll be there in no time!
