    Charm the snake @ the Night
    Safari
    by June.b
    World's first night safari at Singaproe Zoo is fun and a different kind of experience. Take the 45-minute tram ride and watch over 1000 animals of various species which are mostly active at night.

    If I only have two attractions to visit in Singapore, it will be the Sentosa and the Night Safari.

    Open from 7:30 til midnight, admission is at S$18 for adults & 9 for kids 3 to 12 years old.

  • Address: 80 Mandai Lake Road
  • Directions: There are pick-up buses from hotel lobbies along Orchard road that will take you to the Night Safari starting at 6:30pm for a very minimal fee. Or take service 171 to Mandai Road from the city, alight @ the first bus stop and transfer to service 927.

    This 500-hectare resort island is a premier one-stop tourist destination in far-east asia. Take the cable car ride from Mt. Faber to reach the attractions and get a bird's eye view of the whole island as well.

    It is one of Singapore's main attractions complete with five star hotel accommodations, it's own pristine beach resort, golf course, theme park with lots of exciting rides, the famous underwater world oceanarium- largest in asia, gardens & nature walk parks, animals and birds encounters, and of course end the day with the amazing musical fountain & laser show when the night falls. So many attractions, so little time.

    Singapore visit would not be complete with the Sentosa experience!

    Located at Suntec City in the Marina Center area, the Fountain Plaza is regarded by Guinness Book of Records (1998) as the largest fountain in the world with 1683 meters in total area. The fountain is being held by four bronze legs of about 14 meters high. The flowing water in the fountain symbolizes essence of life.

    The Suntec City is a huge complex, a city in itself with shopping malls, office towers, entertainment & dining experience, and convention & exhibition halls.

    The most favorite museum in Singapore for me. I think it 's the best museum where I 've ever visited. As the name of museum,Asian Civiliasation ,so it 's a place where you can pass through Asian in a short time. With a lot of artifacts from all Asian countries together with wonderful exbitions,I think it help the visitor to understand Asian in an easy way. Service: Museum guide is available for free. Some related brocures 're available in front of the counter. Also the museum shop is so full of stuffs and books.
    You can buy a ticket for 2 ACM museums both Empress and Armenian.

    Located at the junction of Coleman Street and Armenian Street. This museum took me back to the history through stamps. All exhibits gave me a lot of resources and fun. And if you 're a stamp collector, all souvenirs in the museum shop 'd be the most attractive stuffs. For me,I 've got some postcards of Singapore in the old day.
