My boyfriend and I stayed in Singapore for 4 days and 3 nights. Surely , we went to see over 20 sight-seeing spots around and experience the beautiful city. Food Culture is amazing. We had wonderful time in Gardens by the Bay. Not to mention the enormous Supertree Grove which is one of my favorite spots.
Unfortunately ,we missed these 2 scenic places while in Singapore.
We would often say “Ugh, we should’ve been there. How can we missed it?” Well at least we get to see them up close. If we would have any chance to go back to Singapore, we will surely not miss these again and you shouldn’t miss it too.
