Trends in Singapore
Crazy Rooftop Pool?
So I'm finally here, after years of seeing those iconic photos. The pool is insane, seriously, like something out of a movie. But the crowds... my god. It felt like I was swimming in a sea of people… more
Go super early, like before sunrise early. Or, try a weekday. Weekends are always bonkers at those places. Also, consider the less-Instagrammable rooftop pools; they’re often way quieter. Singapore has a ton of hotels, so there's gotta be a quieter alternative somewhere. Think smaller, boutique hotels instead of the mega-resorts. You might even find a better view.
Singapore Botanic Gardens Mystery
So I spent the whole afternoon at the Singapore Botanic Gardens, just wandering around the National Orchid Garden – amazing stuff! Seriously, those orchids are something else. But I noticed somethin… more
Nah, I've never seen that. The Botanic Gardens are huge though, easy to miss stuff. Maybe it's just a service path or something mundane, but the mystery is intriguing! Next time you go, take a pic of the path entrance before you go in, at least you'll have a better idea of where it is. Good luck with the exploration! Let us know if you find Atlantis or something equally amazing.
That's a good point about the service path – hadn't thought of that. It was so overgrown and tucked away, it really felt…off. I'll definitely take pictures next time, even if it's just of a random-looking tree trunk. Better than nothing! Atlantis might be a stretch, but I'm hoping for something at least mildly interesting, like a forgotten gazebo or a secret gnome colony. Wish me luck!
