First Time Traveling to Singapore
🧳 Review of a 4-day, 3-night trip to Singapore 🇸🇬
“A small country, but full of happiness”
Hello~ Today I’m going to share a short trip story that made my heart swell from visiting “Singapore,” a tiny country just a stone’s throw from Thailand, but so charming it’s irresistible. Everything was perfect, fabulous, and enchanting — the city is clean, the people are polite, transportation is easy, the food is delicious, the cafes are beautiful, and the landmarks are cute! It’s perfect for chill travelers, photo lovers, foodies, and cute enthusiasts like us 💕🌿

🌟 DAY 1: Arrived~ Singapore!
As soon as the plane touched down at Changi Airport, we knew this was definitely Disneyland for travelers 🎠💫
We headed straight to Jewel Changi Airport, a must-visit highlight with the world’s most beautiful indoor waterfall, the “HSBC Rain Vortex.”
The first time I saw it, my eyes went wide — it was spectacular. Plus, the surroundings are filled with lush green trees and plenty of shops,
like walking through a fantasy forest with air conditioning at 25 degrees 🌳💧
After being amazed by the airport for a while, we took the MRT into the city in style.
We stayed near Bugis, which is very convenient for getting around and has tons of food options 🍜
In the evening, we strolled around Haji Lane, a super trendy artsy street that photo lovers will definitely adore! The shops are cute, and the walls are covered with colorful graffiti. We kept smiling while snapping photos 📸🌈
At night, we stopped for Hainanese chicken rice at Boon Tong Kee, a famous spot that never disappoints. The rice is fragrant, the chicken tender, and the dipping sauce is incredibly flavorful — so delicious it’s unforgettable 🐔🍚

🏙️ DAY 2: National Landmark Day!
We woke up early and headed to Merlion Park~ The Merlion spouting water might seem ordinary, but seeing it in person is super cute!
With Marina Bay Sands — the three-tower building with a boat on top — as the backdrop, it’s so cool it makes you say wow 🦁🌊
After taking enough photos, we walked to Esplanade, the durian-shaped theater (really!), and relaxed by the riverside, enjoying the beautiful city view and cool breeze — so soothing ☁️🍃
In the afternoon, we crossed over to Marina Bay Sands and went up to the SkyPark Observation Deck on the 57th floor. The view from here is worth a million bucks — you can see the whole city, the river, and the sky. Every photo angle is amazing 🏙️💗
Then we walked to Gardens by the Bay, the ultimate highlight! The Flower Dome is a paradise for nature lovers, with beautifully arranged colorful flowers from around the world. The Cloud Forest has a tall waterfall and is refreshingly cool without needing air conditioning 💐🍀
In the evening, we stayed to watch the Garden Rhapsody light and sound show at Supertree Grove. Wow, as soon as the music started, my heart beat to the rhythm — so romantic, even without a partner, it was pure bliss 🌟🎶

🐼 DAY 3: Panda and Food Day~
Today we slept in a bit, then went to meet the pandas at River Wonders inside Singapore Zoo! I have to say, the pandas Kai Kai and Jia Jia are super adorable, eating bamboo and rolling around while we took photos — my heart melted 🐼🌿
After a leisurely walk, it was time to find food! We took the MRT to Orchard Road, a bustling shopping area. We strolled through malls and stopped for Lady M cake, famous for its mille crepe — soft, melts in your mouth, just the right sweetness. The first bite made me say “wow” 🍰✨
In the evening, we walked around Chinatown, bought cute souvenirs like magnets and keychains, and tried the famous Chili Crab! Big crabs tossed in spicy sauce, eaten with crispy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside fried buns — absolutely amazing 🦀🔥

🎡 DAY 4: Universal Studios Singapore! Cute screams all around
We ended the trip with a bang by visiting Universal Studios on Sentosa Island! From the moment we stepped in, it felt like entering a world of imagination 🎢🦖
We started with the thrilling Transformers Ride, followed by the Mummy Ride — pitch dark and screaming at the top of our lungs! Then we went on the Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure, getting soaked but having nonstop fun! 😆💦
Taking photos with Minions and surprise appearances by Pokémon were moments of pure joy 💛 We finished with a giant turkey leg that two people couldn’t even finish, haha 555
After the park, we took the Sentosa Express to VivoCity for some light shopping before heading to the airport, hearts full and memory cards packed with photos~

💬 Trip Summary
Singapore isn’t just a small country; it’s incredibly charming, like a gift box that surprises you every day 🎁💖
