Hi Raniroo,

Why not secure your valuables, switch on and take a stroll through Little India at night. It's amazing: the bustle, the traffic, the nudging, the barging, the smells, the sounds and the whole atmosphere will all play its part. You'll either love it or you'll hate it.
I loved it..

I had a memorable trip in Singapore last Christmas.. The whole country is decorated gorgeously with Christmas trees and I like the Orchard Road most as it's the most happening street I've ever seen...!

Hmmm. Sentosa's okay, more of a pleasant getaway from Singapore city life than a stunning beach (man-made). Very expensive too, by Asian standards. Singaporean's however (understandably) love it.

I'd agree with Cheli's list for things to do and would definitely add making the most of the hawker centres to the list. The food is to die for, and much better than the restaurants that have been stained with westernisation..

hey! i've just been to singapore and had exactly the same queries as you. i asked a friend who lived here who got me to download this really cool product on to my mobile. it's absolutely free (crazy, right?!) and it's basically like having the yellow pages on your phone. it tells you what's going on in singapore, what restaurants are good, where they are, where the cool bars are, singapore tourist attractions, etc, etc. it also has some really good restaurant promotions (i got 20% off at a very expensive restaurant!) you can get in from getjar, but also directly from their website digitalconcierge2go . com
have fun and enjoy your time there...i can't wait to go back!

I would think the best time to visit Singapore is during the National Day/Fireworks festival during 9th August... we usually have it over at at the esplanade near to our cityhall... the view is awesome!!... but i paid like SGD $18 to view it on teh grandstand last year, DON'T DO IT... totally not worth it.. should hav been amongst the crowd on the ground floor (FOR FREE)... that's where u hear all the appluase woos ahhsss... kekek

why pay for it when you can get the tickets for free?

but i'm not sure if visitors/tourists to Singapore will be able to get these free tickets as there are meant for the citizens...

however, you can still catch a view of the celebration/fireworks if you are willing to crowd out at the Merlion Park

Merlion Park... that's one place visitors/tourists to Singapore may want to have a look... it's a Singaporean icon smile.gif

btw ferniz... your www.sgminsu.com and www.sgminsu.com/singapore/budgethomestay/ totally not working...

cheers!
