Traveling to Singapore in mid-January, seeking travel guide ~ ~

I'm in Singapore now. I just want to wear short sleeves outdoors all the year round. Even if the air conditioning is low on public occasions, people who are afraid of the cold had better bring a thin coat. Buses, subways, or shopping malls and office buildings will be cold if you stay for a long time.

In addition, if there are many outdoor activities, or if you want to go to the seaside, prepare sandals or flip-flops that can be launched (there are flip-flops all over the street here). The sun is very strong and the ultraviolet rays are very strong. It's best to prepare sunscreen with high SPF, but this one is also available here. The brand prices are similar to those in China. The index of 31 is not high, and the index of 81 is available, which is a bit scary, hehe! In addition, it's rainy season recently, and it thunders almost every day. It's safer to take an umbrella. Of course, I have to go swimming and prepare swimsuits and goggles.

there are many interesting places! If you like to watch animals, there is a bird park here. There are many beautiful birds, and you can also feed parrots. Most of the birds are free-range (there are large and small Skynets), even if some are kept in cages, there are many big trees inside to create a natural feeling. The Singapore Zoo here has no cold iron bars, and you can see animals in a natural state, and you can also feed giraffes, elephants and so on. You can also see monkeys flying through the treetops above you. The night zoo (next to the zoo) is probably the only zoo in the world that only opens at night. Take a small tour bus to go in. There is a guide to explain the living habits of animals in English. I still clearly remember that the car is driving slowly and a jackal is grazing leisurely where I can reach. It's really exciting! Just remember, in the night zoo, you are not allowed to flash and make noise when taking pictures, so as not to disturb the animals' night life.

The above are three zoos. If you like nature, in addition to these three zoos, there is a botanical garden (which is huge and has excellent environment and is worth visiting for half a day to a day), two nature reserves, where you can see squirrels, monkeys, monitor lizards, and countless birds, small lizards, big snails, and so on. These three scenic spots are all open for free.

If you like shopping, you can go to Suntec City and Orchard Road (it's just a luxury street). Because I don't like shopping very much myself, I can't give you more advice in this respect, hehe!

Then Sentosa must go. Even if many small scenic spots in Sentosa don't go to play, the sea view of the beach alone is definitely worth visiting, and there is a musical fire and water fountain performance at night. You must watch it! Highly recommended! Usually, there is a show at 7: 41 and a show at 8: 41. When you arrive in Sentosa, you can only buy tickets for the second show if you are late, or you can't buy them directly. Although the plot is not so good, the fireworks effect of the light fountain is really good and spectacular!

Another must-see place is Merlion Park. If you didn't go to Merlion Park, you simply didn't come to Singapore! Merlion Park is located at the mouth of the Singapore River, and the famous art center (Big Durian) is across the river from Merlion Park. In addition, it used to be the mouth of the sea. Now, the "world's highest swimming pool" has been built, and three luxury hotel buildings like legs have propped up a big ship (just like an ark). The underground "waves" are casinos in Singapore. It is said that foreigners can enter the casinos for free with their passports (locals have to collect money. )。 But I've never been there. Everyone has their own bottom line, hehe!

Then there are many buildings left over from the colonial period all around the city center, as well as Kela Batou along the coast of Singapore, all of which are bars, which are very lively at night. If you feel tired from walking and want to have a quick look, we recommend a 72-hour tour of river carriage and hippo boat at S $33. The river carriage has two routes, and basically all the major scenic spots in the urban area can be reached, and there are many stops where you can get on and off at any time. The ticket is valid for 72 hours, and the hippo boat can also take it casually. We took three trips, because it is a hippo boat with a short route, and the same route! The first time I saw the scenery, the second time I took pictures, and the third time I saw the night scene at night. It felt very good. There are two stations where you can get on and off the ship, one is at Kela Wharf, and the other is near the big durian at the estuary. There is an open-air stage next to that station, and there are often performances at night, which is very distinctive.

The river carriage can not only see some buildings in the city center, but also cross the main street of Little India and get to Chinatown. You can also go to the botanical garden, so you don't have to find a bus to go to the botanical garden yourself, HOHO~! Speaking of the Botanical Garden, there is a national Huji Garden, which costs S $5. We went there at the end of August, with beautiful flowers and many exotic plants. Now it's unclear, and there may not be so many flowers. You can also buy RISIS ornaments in the shopping mall of the Botanical Garden, and the styles are all beautiful. Some are made of real orchids (that is, Hu Jihua in Singapore), which is amazing!

for others, it is recommended to buy a local SIM card as soon as you leave the airport, which will be much cheaper to make calls (international calls are also cheaper). If you travel independently, it is recommended to buy a bus card, one card for each person, and all subway buses will be settled. In addition, you don't need to change too much money in China. It's convenient to change money here. Just change it when you run out. If you change too much, you have to change it back when you return home, and the handling fee is wasted.

In terms of food, the seafood here is relatively cheap, and the products sold in supermarkets are similar to those in China, while the meat is more expensive, especially pork, which is the same price as beef. There are many Malays and Indians here, so the most common meats are chicken and fish, and many halal and Indian foods are without pork and beef.

Chili crabs are especially recommended! If you are afraid of spicy food, order black pepper crab, and sandao is also very good, a bit like domestic kebabs, but the dip is very fragrant. I haven't tasted the coconut palm until now. It is said that it is the most common breakfast for local people (coffee+bread, coconut palm). You can try it. There are many special cuisines here, so you can have a good look around the major food courts.

there is also a beach that costs nothing, that is, the east coast! It is said that it is 18KM, so it is good to walk for a while! You can also go and have a look. Generally speaking, the environment here is very good, and it looks like a garden everywhere. It's a bit messy to talk so much. If you have any questions, you can continue to HI me!
