Marina South Mysteries

Marina South

So, I'm heading to Marina South next week. I've heard whispers about a hidden speakeasy down by the docks – supposedly, you need a specific password to get in. Anyone know the lowdown on this place?… more

Nah, it's not a myth. There are a few super hush-hush bars around Marina South. Getting in is half the fun, though. Your friend's probably playing it coy – these places rely on word-of-mouth and connections. Try looking up some local Singaporean nightlife blogs or Instagram accounts focused on cocktails or speakeasies. They often drop hints, or even flat-out review the places, without giving away too much. Good luck with your hunt! It'll be worth it.

Yeah, that museum's reputation precedes it. My advice? Don't go in expecting a typical wax museum. It's designed to be unsettling, so managing expectations is half the battle. Maybe watch a few genuinely creepy documentaries beforehand – get yourself used to that level of visual discomfort. That way, the museum might just feel... intense, rather than terrifying. And afterwards, treat yourself to something fun and distracting – maybe some delicious hawker food or a nice walk along the Singapore River. You'll need it.

That's actually really helpful advice! I hadn't thought about mentally preparing myself beforehand. I tend to go into things pretty blind, which... sometimes backfires spectacularly. Hawker food after sounds perfect, though. Might even need two bowls of laksa to recover. Thanks!
