[Singapore] Places to visit on a 3-day, 2-night trip

After three nights and four days in Malaysia, I moved to Singapore by bus! It was my first time crossing the border by land, so I was nervous, but I was relieved when I arrived safely in Singapore. I had a few acquaintances who had been to Singapore, and they said it was small so you could see everything quickly, so I thought two nights and three days would be enough, but personally I thought it would be better to stay a little longer. I wanted to experience more of the local atmosphere as well as the famous places. Now, let me introduce the places I was particularly glad to have visited♪ Day 1 "Chinatown/Chinatown Singapore" There was a temple I wanted to go to, so I went through Chinatown. There were many souvenir shops and restaurants lined up. On the way back, I bought a T-shirt and chocolate at a souvenir shop here. "Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, Singapore" I found out later that there is a tooth of Buddha discovered in Myanmar. "Merlion Park" When you think of Singapore, the first thing that comes to mind is the lion. It's famous as one of the world's most disappointing spots, but I was quite moved when I first saw the Merlion. I thought, "Is that the lion I've always seen in photos?" I had heard that it was disappointing, so I thought it would be small and unimpressive, but surprisingly, it wasn't! It may have been because I saw it for the first time that I was impressed, but it was bigger than I normally think, and the water spray coming out of the Merlion's mouth was strong and amazing. I could see Marina Bay Sands in the distance, and I went here at night, so the night view was beautiful, and it became one of my favorite places! Day 2 "Sentosa Island" I came to Singapore with almost no plan, so I went to Sentosa Island on a whim! I thought it would be quite difficult to get to the island, but it was easy to get there by train! I just relaxed on the beach and had a wonderful time! However, it was very hot, so I couldn't survive without shade...I went back to buy water several times to prevent heatstroke. The island itself is not that big, so I think I can get around it in a night or two! "Palawan Beach" As I was walking, I saw a big white bridge. The blue sky and palm trees are beautiful, and it's a very photogenic spot! I tried crossing the bridge and took a little walk. I couldn't help but stare at a very beautiful woman taking photos... It's a beach I want to visit again when I visit Sentosa Island! I didn't stay overnight this time, so I don't know what the atmosphere is like at night on Sentosa Island, but the beach is beautiful, so I guess it must be romantic. I walked around Sentosa Island as if I was just taking a walk, but it was just too hot!! It's essential to take precautions against heatstroke. I was pretty exhausted from the heat, so I had a mysterious drink to refresh myself on the way home. "Clarke Quay" I went back to the hotel and went to the area along the river. I went there to have dinner with a friend in the evening, and it was very romantic. I thought it would be wonderful to walk along the river with my lover. There were many restaurants and cafes, and I ate at a Western restaurant there. On the way back, I walked a little around the river and headed straight to Gardens by the Bay. "Gardens by the Bay" It was already past 10pm when we arrived. There were not many people, but there were a few tourists here and there. Admission is free, and the overall opening hours of Gardens by the Bay are from 5:00 to 2:00. I wanted to see the "Supertree" as much as I wanted to see the Merlion when I was sightseeing in Singapore. It was lit up in blue, and it was a fantastic and relaxing experience. It's one of the places I want to go back to. I could also see Marina Bay Sands, and I thought I'd like to stop by there someday. Day 3: It's finally time to return to Thailand. I wanted to try Singapore's local gourmet food "Bak Kut Teh" at the end, so I decided to go to a famous restaurant! I tried to go to "Song Fa Bak Kut Teh 11 New Bridge Road", but when I arrived, it was super crowded! There was a line. I didn't have much time, so I had no choice but to go to a nearby Bak Kut Teh restaurant. I went to "NG AH SIO Bak Kut Teh (Clarke Quay Central)". The inside was clean. I really wanted to experience a more local feel, but maybe next time. It was my first time to try Bak Kut Teh, and the moment I ate it, I thought, "Wait... it's too delicious," and regretted not having known about this food before (lol). The meat on the bone was soft and easy to eat, and the soup was so delicious. I don't know what to say, but I was impressed with the soup I had never tried before. When I ran out of soup, the waitress gave me more, so I ended up having several bowls. Refills of soup were free, but the charge for the towels was extra. (lol) With my stomach full, I headed to the airport very satisfied. And then I safely arrived at Singapore Changi Airport. There was another place I wanted to go to here too. It was Jewel Changi Airport!! This is a huge complex inside the airport. It's located in Terminal 1. I also wanted to see the Rain Vortex inside. The world's highest indoor waterfall is impressive when you see it in person! I took a shuttle bus to Terminal 4. I used my Trip.com lounge access privileges to go to the Blossom Lounge. I'll share my impressions later. It was a very satisfying trip to Singapore. 2 nights and 3 days was not enough, so I'd like to go to the places I couldn't go this time next time! ! #trip #singapore #singapore #solotravel #singaporetrip2024
