A Day in Singapore

In a Day's Trip



To Go

While in Singapore, better known as the Lion City, my uncle who's lived there for ages brought me to....


The Singapore Changi International Airport

If you're on a shoestring budget, this is a place to go.

It may sound like an unconventional way of spending your time as a tourist, but once you enter, you can immediately feel the inviting atmosphere.

Terminal 3 boasts wonderful contemporary architectural designs and it's rather amazing how everything blend in perfectly inside this Terminal.

The airport is absolutely clean, including its washrooms.

This elegantly-dressed Terminal  has so much to offer that it looks (to me) more like a shopping mall than an actual airport, where you just sit down and wait for your departure.

The locals, called Singaporeans, bring their families to this very Terminal for a pleasant family outing - taking a stroll, grabing a bite and watching airplanes touch down and depart at the viewing point.

Students bring along their books and find a nice spot to sit down and study; some teenagers even bring their own games to play with friends.

Why do people hang out in Terminal 3?

Not only does it clad in a contemporary architectural outfit, the terminal's also hugged with trees to balance the whole environment of the airport terminal, and it's absolutely spacious and relaxing.

The architects of Terminal 3 incorporate skylights into their design, as part of their "go green' effort.

Just look at the photos!

Restaurants are everywhere. If you want a more economical meal, head to the Food Court.

It's not just simply an airport, it completes your travelling experience and becomes part of your journey.

We spent absolutely nothing, except $2.50 for the parking fee.

If you're not driving, you can take the MRT train that takes you directly to the airport.





To Dine

For a whole new dining atmosphere, visit Marche at Vivo City (MRT stop at Harbourfront).

It's located at the very top level of Vivo City.

Marche is a Swiss restaurant and you can expect the setting similar to a market's, but cleaner and sweeter.

Oh, this place is for food enthusiasts. It's a food haven! The food are a delight to see.

There are so much to choose from, that you might get lost in your excitement and lose track of how much you've spent using the swipe card system.

Here's how it works at Marche:

1. Wait to be seated.
2. The staff will give a card to you.
3. After ordering food, give your card to the staff in-charged for a swipe.
4. After finishing your food and leaving, pay at the counter at the exit.

Simple steps!

The fresh food and beverages served at Marche will undoubtedly leave you drooling...and asking for more, if you like Swedish cuisine.

They have a fine range of food and beverages, including pasta, vege, sandwiches, muffins, desserts and fresh juices.

I tried their homemade pineapple lemonade and how thirst quenching it was! Absolutely tropical.

                          (The restaurant is so authentic, even the decor are all so Swedish; so cosy and at home)

They have bottles of Oranginas too!

My friend told me there's one Marche in Mid Valley, but not as good as this one in Singapore. I'm not aware of Marche in KL!





To Dine 2


Changi Village


According to my uncle, this is an area where many "Ang Mohs" (westerners) like to chill out because the place is breezy and cool 'cos it's at the beach.

Changi Village is around 20 minutes drive from the airport, depending on the traffic.

This place is AWEsome.

There are many food stalls, including pubs. The food are nice and served in generous portions, at very reasonable prices too!

However, that's the not the key attraction in Changi Village.

It's the beach where an amazing experience awaits.

Take a stroll along the beach after a satisfying dinner and make sure you keep your eyes open all the time.

You wouldn't want to miss out seeing airplanes zooming past your head, would you?

From a distance, you'll see two beaming lights, that will slowly approach the beach and if lucky, right above your head and that's when you'll realised the lights come from an airplane.

You can watch an airplane in the sky, flying, at a close range. Cool? It's better than watching them at the airport, right?



Well, I ended my trip in Singapore at Changi Village, bade my farewell and headed to Skudai, Johor for a one-night stay there.


Note: Always wear comfortable shoes, preferably no heels, for you're gonna walk, walk and walk in this city.
