Things to do in Singapore, Singapore: The Best Scenic Walking Areas
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.

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)

During the day this can get very busy, particularly if there are cruise liners in port.trying to get photos by Merlion can be a challenge. Late evening as darkness falls, the crowds thin, and there is plenty of space. Great photo opportunities and around 9pm you get fantastic views of the MBS laser show - the financial district /2Fullertons are also well lit to provide a very attractive area with the river in between complimenting with evening traffic.

Bridging the hills of Mount Faber Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park and Kent Ridge Park, the Southern Ridges combine invigorating exercise with spectacular views across Singapore.

The Southern Ridges connect the following parks: Mount Faber Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, Hort Park, Kent Ridge Park and Labrador Nature Reserve – all of which can delight any walking, photography, and nature enthusiasts. Mount Faber Park is one of the oldest parks in Singapore and probably one of the most popular tourist destination because of the cable car ride. The park is connected to Telok Blangah Hill Park by Henderson Waves Bridge. The park houses the Marina Deck, Palm Plaza, Jewel Box, and Faber Point. The Henderson Waves is my favourite spot. This 899-foot long pedestrian, wooden bridge suspended at 118 feet above Henderson Road, is the highest pedestrian bridge in Singapore. It connects Mount Faber Park and Telok Blangah Hill Park. It is called such because the bridge has a waveform made up of seven undulating curved steel ribs that alternately rise over and under its deck. The bridge also has shelters with seats within. The Southern Ridges of Singapore is a “fresh air and greenery” personified. It’s probably all that and more. There is something about its great outdoors that gives walking, running a little kick. So when you find yourself in the Lion City wanting to commune with nature, and you want to feel more alive, energetic and optimistic – walk your way to the Southern Ridges.

The airport actually offers free guided bus tours for layovers of 5 hours or more. We had 15 hours between flights which was just enough time to explore. There are tickets to the OCBC Walkway which is 60 ft off the ground and connects two of the trees via a 400 ft suspension bridge. We got tickets through @Klook which included the walkway, cloud forest, and flower garden for 22 USD per person. Before going up you must pick a time slot at the ticket booth. We chose to go at night because they offer 15 minute nightly light shows at 8 & 9PM. To see the show from above, we suggest getting your tickets for 7:20 because we weren’t able to go up in time with our 7:40 tickets due to the lines to go up via elevator. This show was amazing considering it’s free and offered each night. Afterwards we crossed the marina walkway to the bay to see the free Spectra light show which also takes place nightly at 8 & 9PM in front of the hotel. Spots fill up quickly but it’s hard to find a bad spot. This show could best be described as the World of Color show from Disneyland. We packed so much into our layover in Singapore and ended it with drinks at the club lounge on top of the Marina Bay Sands. They offer free entry on Thursday and drink vouchers on days that there is a cover! - @wanderingwithustwo
