Singapore Hotspots: Bras Basah, Clark Quay, Henderson Waves, Changi Beach, and Bishan.

It is a common knowledge to everyone how picture-perfect Singapore is. How excellent there transportation and sewage system. In what manner they made water waste and even toilet waste into potable water. It's simply amazing! During my stay in SG, I happen to visit some places; others are planned while others are not.

My discoveries:

Bras Basah


I got here by accident. I was searching for a church at my convenient time. Luckily there's one, a few steps from Bras Basah MRT Station.

Church of Sts. Peter and Paul
Just a walking distance is the Singapore Art Museum (SAM).

Clark Quay

Clark Quay is a haven for party animals. A one-stop shop plus pubs overlooking a river.



Henderson Waves

Another interesting attraction is the Henderson Waves. Henderson Waves is a wooden - built bridge. Definitely, the place has a calming effect at night. Great place for picnic and photo shoots!

Changi Beach- Changi Point

Who says, Singapore doesn't have a beach? Well, I thought so too. Surprisingly, they do have. The place used to be tragic marker. Way back in time; Changi is used to be the site of one of the most brutal killings in Singapore's history. For more information, read on Changi Beach' History .

Bishan

Bishan is by far the busiest interchange among all the other MRT Stations. But greatly it fails in comparison of what is outside the station. It's so peaceful and calm outside. I like!

Outside Bishan, it looks so spacious!

Singapore was fun. But still it's more fun in the Philippines!. Ha- ha- ha

Tips where to dine, stroll and shop in Singapore

Singapore is a good place for convenient shopping and dining experience as it offers a wide array of choices.  It caters to the extreme! From high - end labels to affordable yet chic fabrics..

Here are my cues:

Orchard Road

A place that never runs out of shoppers. A not so ordinary road for locals and tourists where high - end apparels  are an inch away! The likes of Prada, Louis Vuitton, Channel, Gucci, D & G, and Dior are literally queuing.

Vivo City and Sentosa Island

When visiting Singapore, you shouldn't dare miss going to Sentosa Island via Vivo City. You can get to this place by MRT through Harbour Front or ride a bus.. But before heading out to Sentosa, do check out Vivo Mall in and out!

Singapore and Marina Bay Sands

Singapore is one of my most unforgettable trip to date as it was my first and perhaps the longest trip away from home. Nevertheless, it felt so high and it feels so right that time.

Fast forward to 2.15.12 , I was quite nervous being scrutinized by the immigration officers at the departure area as I have been hearing stories of people not permitted to go. Being it my first, my heart skipped a beat! Ha-ha

Well, the turn out of events favored my side. Ta-dang! Got my tourist pass! Call it shallow but I am so happy and excited to be going around and exploring places!

The next day, I was confronted with problems as I have to meet friends at the other end and have to ride the MRT alone. Taken into consideration that I am very poor at geography and doesn't have a unique liking of reading maps. Ha-ha...Now, spell good luck! lol Well, after several inquiries to locals and frequent calls to my friend, I managed to arrive at their flat! haha

The very first place we visited was Marina Bay. I got wowed again and again! Singapore is really clean, the buildings, (I mean the lucrative ones are everywhere) and the scenery outside Marina Bay is gorgeous!

I have photos to speak!
