Things to Do in Singapore
Weather in Singapore
Being close to the equator, Singapore has a tropical climate that is characterised by high temperatures (ranges between 26 - 32 °C) and rainfall throughout the year. November and December see peak precipitation so we’d suggest you visit between January to April since that’s when the climate is relatively dry and pleasant.
Singaporean culture
Over three-fourths of Singapore’s population is of Chinese ethnicity; the next biggest ethnic groups are Malays (15%) and Indians (7.5%).
Geography
This city-state sits on the tip of the Malaysian Peninsula and consists of about 65 islands and islets, the largest of which is Pulao Ujong – also called Singapore Island.
Things to Do in Singapore
Explore the varied neighbourhoods
It can take a while to piece together the vibe of this multicultural city, so we recommend spending as much time in Singapore’s many ethnic enclaves as you can! Start at Chinatown or Little India. Chinatown is famous for not only its street food, souvenir shops and Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, but also the Sri Mariamman Temple, a Hindu place of worship. Little India, on the other hand, feels like a street in Chennai or Mumbai, complete with jewellery stores, shouting vendors and bustling tea stalls.
Learn about Singaporean history
To learn about Singapore’s colonial past, visit the Singapore City Gallery, Arts House (once the city’s parliament!), Changi Museum and Indian National Army Monument. Most of these highlight the city’s role in the Second World War, though they also narrate its medieval origins.
Modern architecture
Modern Singapore expresses itself in the Helix Bridge, a pedestrian bridge modelled to look like a strand of DNA, and Parkview Square, which you could have sworn looks like it belongs in Gotham City.
Spend a day at Sentosa Island
For something dreamier, visit Sentosa Island, a haven of beautiful beaches and old pirate legends. This is also where Universal Studios Singapore is.
Eating Out in Singapore
The streets of Singapore are always thick with the aroma of Asian dishes. Salivate over the country’s national dish, Hainanese chicken rice, or go for a South Indian thaali for a cornucopia of flavours. Don’t miss out on Nasi Lemak, a unique Malay snack consisting of rice and meat cooked together in coconut milk while wrapped in a pandan leaf.
Transport in Singapore
Singapore airport
To enter Singapore, fly to Changi Airport (SIN) – which has flights from over 100 airlines, and is connected to around 400 destinations – or drive in from Western Malaysia.
Public transport
Within the city, buy a Singapore Tourist Pass and use it to travel cheaply in the highly efficient Mass Rapid Transit and bus systems. Metered taxis are available in most areas.
Driving in Singapore
If you’re travelling with family or a large group of friends, consider renting a 7-seater or 9-seater van or minibus to give you the freedom and flexibility to explore Singapore at your own pace.
