There is an interesting blend of things here that stun the visitors. Some of these things are listed here.
An Incredible Combination Of Hawkers And Modern Dining
The best thing about Singapore is that one is greeted with a number of dining options here. People are, in fact, spoilt for choices since they are able to enjoy as refreshing and mouth-watering food at the hawkers on the street as in the modern restaurants. In fact, one of the hawkers here has managed to earn Michelin stars for providing extremely sumptuous and lip-smacking food. This spot is none other than the popular Tai Hwa Pork Noodle that is located in Hill Street. And then, there is a great spot in Chinatown Complex called ‘Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice & Noodle.’
And, the culinary scene at the restaurants is equally appealing and exhilarating. One gets to taste modern innovative dishes here. For instance, a visit to ‘Mod-Sin’ would enable one taste the perfect delicacies prepared by the experienced and innovative chef Willin Low. Moreover, there is the ‘Corner House’ in world famous Singapore Botanic Gardens, which is known for offering top-class ‘Gastro-Botanica’ cuisine.
Remarkable Modern Skyscrapers And Ever-Appealing Traditional Architecture
Another peculiar blend of things that befuddles the tourists is the perfect harmony and co-existence of various types of buildings exhibiting great traditional architecture along with skills of modern engineers and architects at building amazing skyscrapers. So, a visit to the happening Raffles Palace, along with other locations like Swisssotel The Stamford, which is the tallest hotel in Singapore would leave one wondering at these architectural feats. However, the tourists are going to be equally surprised at discovering the great traditional architectural accomplishments by visiting Joo Chiat, and other areas in the city.
Local Festivities And International Events
Singapore is acknowledged by people all over the world and that is the reason why it has become a hub of various international events. For instance, it is a regular spot now that hosts ‘Grand Prix’. Apart from the international events, the place enjoys great local festivals, thanks to the conglomeration of people from various nationalities here. For instance, due to the heavy population of Indians people celebrate Indian festivals like Deepavali, and the same holds true for Chinese festivals, as people never miss a chance to celebrate these festivals as well.
Great Shopping Scene
Apart from the other things mentioned before, what intrigues the tourists is a dazzling array of options they have while shopping here. People from all sorts of backgrounds can easily find a thing of their choice, and within their budget. This is because there are all sorts of local marketplaces like Bugis Street Village, where haggling over a price is never uncommon. And, then, there are posh and grand shopping complexes where the elite love to part with their money in order to buy the designer brands of their choice.
