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.

1. Chinese New Year (China Town)

4.5 based on 90 reviews
Gong Xi Fa Cai! (May the New Year bring you fortune and good luck!) Be prepared to be immersed into a sea of red and gold hues as Singapore's Chinatown takes the lead in ushering in the traditional Chinese New Year! Discover the street markets coming to life with goodies such as decorative ornaments on sale; and be prepared to queue for hours for the yummy New Year snack 'bah kwa' (barbecued sliced pork). The crowd thickens by the day as the city counts down to the party — and it is the only time of the year the authorities allow the use of firecrackers in Singapore. It's definitely worth the jostle to experience the festive flavor upfront, and the crowd favorite has to be the unique New Year lanterns that represent the animal zodiac of the Chinese New Year.

A lot of great items to buy at a reasonable cost! We went there in the afternoon. The place was a bit crowded. There were some restaurants too. We didn't stay for long since we're leaving in the evening. It was great having to visit such a good place with friendly people.
2. Singapore Food Festival

4.0 based on 11 reviews
Warning — you are going to put on weight at this event! Singaporeans are passionate about food and they even have a festival to celebrate the best of their local cuisine. Lasting for a month, look out for the thematic pop-ups that feature perennial food favorites of this multi-racial city. The highlight has to be how several leading local chefs take the opportunity to create Mod-Sin or modern Singaporean cuisine, giving your taste buds a fresh fusion sensation. Get hands-on as well with live demonstration classes on how to perfect that Laksa Pesto Pasta — there is no better time to be in food heaven than this!

4. Singapore Art Week
5. Affordable Art Fair
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 8 reviews
For those who want a taste of owning artwork, check out the Affordable Art Fair. 'Affordable' here means that art prices are capped at SG$10,000, not quite pocket change but not completely unattainable either if you really want to own some art. It is a great opportunity for those in the know to spot and own upcoming art talent before they hit the big time (and big price tags).
