The 10 Best Things to do for Honeymoon in Singapore, Singapore
The Singapore cityscape looks like it was ripped from the pages of a science fiction comic book. If you’re hungry for a true Singapore experience, sample the myriad street foods or take a cultural cooking class. The Botanic Gardens and the Gardens By the Bay offer a slice of horticultural heaven, and the observation deck of the Sands SkyPark makes you feel like you’re high above the clouds. The banks and walkways along the Singapore River bustle with local activity.

VISITS ARE STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENTS Founded in 2003, The Intan is a Peranakan heritage home-museum. The brainchild of antique collector and owner Alvin Yapp, The Intan (meaning 'rose-cut diamond' in Malay) enlightens its guests about the multi-facetted aspects of Peranakan culture through a kaleidoscope of rare historical artefacts, intriguing personal stories, and authentic dining experiences. Located in the heart of Joo Chiat, a traditional Peranakan enclave and Singapore's first heritage town (2011), The Intan offers personalised tours conducted by Alvin, which culminate with authentic Peranakan tea sessions and dinners inspired by his mother. The Intan also doubles up as a unique event space, having hosted a variety of activities that included jewellery exhibitions, art shows and violin recitals. Voted Best Overall Experience in Singapore's inaugural Museum Roundtable Awards, The Intan has been featured internationally on CNN Travel, Discovery Channel and National Geographic. Singapore Travelholic lists The Intan as the top 5 Peranakan activities to do in Singapore. With a vision to promote Peranakan culture beyond Singapore, The Intan's collection has been showcased in places such as Croatia, Hawaii, Hong Kong, Moscow, London and Barcelona.

We visited Singapore's smallest and only lived in museum called the Intan in late January. Visits are by appointments only and the live in owner and guide Alvin showed us around and chatted with us over peranakan snacks. Alvin is an avid collector and passionate about the Peranakan Culture, heritage and history. The museum is self funded and the money he collects for admission actually goes to several children's charities. Its a real gem of a place in the historic area of Joo Chiat so please support this wonderful hidden Gem in Singapore.

Wow! …this place is just beautiful. The word ‘gardens’ rather understates what this place is – there are so many different areas illustrating different plant life – evolution garden, rain forest, palms, healing garden, sun garden, fragrant garden, bonsai garden etc ...and there are also beautiful lakes and open spaces. It occupies a vast area and there is so much to see so we advise arriving early to give you enough time to enjoy and fully explore this attraction. Time constraints meant that we didn’t visit here when we were in Singapore last year and so it was on the top of our ‘must do’ list on this visit. It is so beautiful – well laid out and beautifully maintained and cared for. The National Orchid Garden is located in the Botanic Gardens and is a mass of so many different shapes and colours of orchids – you don’t know what to look at first! There are several cafes and restaurants dotted around the site (we had mid-morning tea/coffee and also a delicious salad for a late lunch at Bee’s Knees). A really enjoyable experience.

The breath-taking connection between Faber Peak Singapore and Sentosa Island Established since 1974, Singapore Cable Car is the nation's first and only cableway that links Faber Peak on mainland Singapore to the island resort of Sentosa, before flying you to the Merlion or the sandy beach at Siloso. Today, the cable car rides are enjoyed across a Cable Car Sky Network of more than 100 cabins spanning almost 5 kilometres on the Mount Faber Line and the Sentosa Line. A 'joyride' across the Cable Car Sky Network offers a 360-degree aerial and visual treat of the entire Sentosa-HarbourFront skyline and the resort island. The scenery transforms as the cabins soar above the forest, through a skyscraper, over the harbour and travel across the jungle, sand and sea. Our passionate service ambassadors are on hand to create happy moments for all cable car joyriders. Singapore Cable Car Opening Hours: From 8.45am to 10pm (Last boarding: 9.30pm)

Different colorful varieties of orchids .Takes little more than an hour to go around and look at all the wonderful orchids .Well maintained garden .Entry fee is around 5 SGD.Best to take a GRAB cab directly to the entrance closest to the orchid garden otherwise the walking is a bit too much .Visited the place in October, it was extremely humid and the heat was unbearable .Better to carry an umbrella or check the weather forecast since the weather is unpredictable .The place is worth the visit if you love flowers and greenery , compared to the other expensive tourist sites the entry fee is very reasonable .They have an memento shop with different showpieces and key chains etc with preserved orchids .The counter staff are quite rude.
