Mina Singapore-Tips Av Monica Nilsson Februari 2016 Mina Singapore-tips Av Monica Nilsson februari 2016 - Orchard Road – shopping och flanerande. Gå upp mot Scotts Road och till Far East Plaza, det finns många mindre butiker där som inte är lika dyrt att fynda i som de andra mera lyx-shopping mail som t ex Tachashimaya etc. - Gå absolut in på vackra kolonialhotellet Goodwood Park som ligger sidan om, ta en kaffe eller lunch eller bara titta in. - Singapore Botanique garden får ni inte missa. Ta en taxi dit, MRT är inte klart dit ännu. Räkna ca 2-3 timmar där. Det finns en restaurang “The Halia” sidan om Visitor centre och orkidé garden (gå in där också) som är mysig och har god mat. - Raffles Hotel och Long Bar är en klassiker och att ta en Singapore Sling där. - Rekommenderar att äta en kväll på Chijmes – nära Raffles http://chijmes.com.sg/category/restaurants/ - McRitchie reservoir – gå i djungelmiljö (ca 8 km) och missa inte Treetop walk - Chinatown. Dit går MRT så det är väldigt lätt och smidigt. Gå även in på marknaden bakom templet etc. Det finns ett ganska fint museum på gågatan på vä sida Chinatown Heritage Museum. Missa inte de gamla traditionella apoteken. Indiska templet längs stora gatan. Sri Mariamman temple. Om ni sedan går over på andra sidan gatan i Chinatown finns det en massa trevliga små boutiquer och resturanger man inte bör missa. - Arab street – trevligt att gå runt där och även en del mysiga restauranger http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g294265-d324757-Reviews- Arab_Street-Singapore.html - Marina Bay Sands och allt runt omkring där. http://www.yoursingapore.com/see-do-singapore/recreation- leisure/resorts/marina-bay-sands.html - Singapore Flyer - Boat Quay och Clark Quay - Fort Canning park - Night Safari och Singapore Zoo - Fullerton hotel and bar – mysigt på kvällen - Sentosa island (fast för mig/oss har de förstört hela ön…) - The Esplanande och Singapore Indoor stadion för konserter och teater - Äta på Hawker stall – det finns många…!! - 1 st Altitude – roof top bar vid MRT Raffles Place, man köper en biljett nere på markplan och då ingår en drink (25 Singaporedollar) .

And tonight, we’re Welcome to Singapore! It’s my first day going to another zoo—the Night here–well, actually, we got in SUPER Safari! late last night, but after the long flight I went straight to bed. I’m up now and can’t wait to get out and see the sights. So far all I know is that I can’t spit on the street (not that I would) or chew gum– both are against the law! We even had to throw out our gum before leaving the plane! Oh, and it’s really hot here! Too hot for Coconut, who is still asleep, so she's going to stay in the hotel where it's cool. 4:15 p.m. Dear Diary, You’ll never guess who I had afternoon Here’s a picture of me with a stuffed animal version of Nani the orangutan tea with today—an orangutan!
