Things to do in Singapore, Singapore: The Best Shopping

March 31, 2022 Toi Mattera

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.

Riverside Point

Reviewed By sowmyam2014 - Chennai (Madras), India

Recently visited Singapore and my brother wanted to show us how Singapore functions in the whole night. So we took a cab and went to Clark quay where we took a walk around Riverside front and many pubs and stalls around. One side in a restaurant Halloween party was on and people were roaming with Halloween party costumes and it was funny to watch. There were music bands performing and in other area there were people dancing inside the night club with so many laser decorated lights. Then we moved on to see so many old heritage buildings on the opposite of the riverside front and there was one stall with German ice cream. Found the guy at the ice cream stall funny, because he was doing so many tricks with the cone ice-cream filled with chocolate ice that I ordered and he did the same tricks on me for at least 10mins and then gave me my chocolate ice cream cone. This is the best riverside restaurant with night clubs and pubs around and is situated on the Singapore River. The walk around Riverside front was so relaxing and after taking some photos we returned back to our restaurant past midnight. The people who will like these activities can go to this place.

The Arts House

Occupying the almost 200-year-old building that was Singapore's first Parliament House, The Arts House has played an active role in the Singapore arts and creative scene for the past decade. As a centre for writing, writers and ideas, The Arts House supports and presents programmes and festivals that aim to develop and promote literary arts in Singapore.

Reviewed By NigelG407 - Singapore, Singapore

The Arts House was the former Parliament Building of Singapore. It is a building steeped in history in its own right and well worth a visit. During the Singapore Art Week the chamber became more colourful than ever it has in its history based on a fabric exhibition entitled Justice for All. The exhibition was organised by the celebrated British-Nigerian artist Yinka Shinabare RA. A truly stunning exhibition which was well worth a visit. The lower floor held Marjorie Doggett’s Singapore photography exhibition. A genius with large frame photography long before the digital era. The exhibition is over now but there are ongoing events here. Even without art events the building is worth looking at alone.

Not a customer of UOB but dropped by the visit the UOB Painting of the Year Exhibition. Stunning works on display of various mediums - including leather - stunning work of faces by Somchai Sidamon. Another entitled wastescape depicts space waste - intriguing and masterfully created by Chaichana Luetralun. Plenty of other art works that are equally attractive. Clearly a lot of talent on display. Opposite on the ground floor is Paris Baguette - I had a nice lunch there. As you exit the building onto UOB Square you will see a massive sculpture by Salvador Dali - an artists delight. Great visit.

Liang Court

Reviewed By WasanW - Singapore, null

I love going to Liang Court as it is just beside Fort Canning MRT and the ambiance is cool and not so crowded. Of course, I am hanging out during weekdays. I am not sure if it is crowded during weekends though. I love the Let's Eat foodcourt's fish noodle and oyster egg fry. It is reasonably priced. Next I shopped at Uniqlo and the tight stretchy pants are going for a steal at $30 a pair. Love the shopping experience at the Basement supermarket as well. Good place to hangout for a afternoon,
