Trends in Singapore
Supertrees at Night?
I went to Gardens by the Bay last week, totally blown away by the Cloud Forest – seriously impressive. But the Supertrees at night… wow. They were even more spectacular than the pictures showed. My… more
Head to the OCBC Skyway. It's elevated, gives a great panoramic view, and while it'll still be busy, you'll get a less congested perspective than ground level. Alternatively, try getting there really early – like, before sunset early. You'll beat most of the crowds, though you'll miss some of the twilight show. It's a trade-off, but worth considering if you’re after those pristine shots.
Pasir Panjang's Secret?
I'm heading to Pasir Panjang next week for a friend's wedding. Heard it's got some killer hawker centers but also some seriously quiet spots. Anyone know of any hidden, I mean *really* hidden, gems… more
Pasir Panjang is a bit of a mixed bag, honestly. You'll find the usual touristy stuff, sure, but to find something really off the beaten path, you gotta be willing to wander. Forget the hawker centers for a bit – those are pretty well-documented. Instead, head towards the western part, near the coast. There are some incredibly old Chinese clan houses tucked away in quieter residential areas. They aren't exactly "secret," but most tourists don't stumble upon them. The architecture is amazing; some are seriously dilapidated, others surprisingly well-maintained. Take your time exploring those narrow streets; you might even find a tiny, family-run kopitiam serving incredibly authentic local breakfast – think kaya toast and soft-boiled eggs done perfectly. That's the kind of thing your family back in @London won't believe. Just be respectful of the residents; it's not a tourist attraction, so keep it low-key. Expect a good dose of old Singapore charm, possibly some interesting smells, and a story to tell that'll blow everyone away. Good luck with the wedding!
