The 'awe' of Singapore
There are a few things tourist visiting Singapore (pronounced as Sin-ga-pore and not Sin-gaa-pore as many Indians do) must not miss. I will prioritize the list after my 3 weeks now. Though I haven't seen a few places (still in my 'must-visit' list), there have been a bunch of places that really attracted me.
A must see in Singapore:
1) Singapore Flyer - A beautiful view of the City and the ocean. Best time to visit - 6:30pm - 7:30pm. For that, one needs to be in the ticket counter by 5:30pm. During this period of the day, you will get too look at the city with a bit of sun light and also with lights lit just after sunset.
2) Singapore Botanical Garden and National Orchid Garden - If you love to relax, the Botanical Garden is the best place to be in. With so much natural beauty and calmness, you will enjoy peace with a nice breeze. For photography fans, Orchid Garden is the place to spend to fill 1-2GB of your camera memory.
Best day to visit - Weekdays OR, Saturday morning. You will need a whole day to enjoy the Garden. Pack your lunch and spend time in the 'Picnic Ground'.
3) Jurong Bird Park - For kids, the show at Pools Amphitheater will be the most amazing thing. to witness. Apart from this show, the park has lots of other attractions which is worth watching.
Best day to visit - Weekdays OR, Saturday morning. Never visit on Sunday.
4) The Merlion, Symbol of Singapore - This is the spot in Singapore for tourists to take a picture with Merlion in the background and tell their friends and family back home, "I visited Singapore".
Best time - Any day, anytime. You will see a floating population here and is not crowded.
With the above list, a visitor will be able to spend a 3-day vacation here :). I think, that should be a good short vacation to enjoy.
