FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF SINGAPORE | Is it worth visiting? 🇸🇬
Hello and welcome to Singapore!
We finish off our South East Asia Adventure in Singapore!
We only have two days here, and we want to find out if it's worth visiting or not?! Spoiler alert.. it is!
Today we visiting Gardens by the Bay (during the day and the night), drank iced coffee in a 2D cafe and ate far too much in Little India!
We had the best day, hope you enjoy the video :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this series, we'll be travelling SOUTH EAST ASIA for the very first time!
We've been to 20 countries so far, all in Europe! So we're super excited to spend the next three weeks sampling a part of the world reknowned by travellers and backpackers for its culture, it's people and of course.. it's food!
We've had so much fun in SE Asia, we hope you enjoy the video & series :)
Thank you to..

I second that!
You made the right choice. Rainbow bread with ice-cream is da bomb! The contrast of textures is nice.

Singapore 🇸🇬 is not your typical South East Asia city that you have visited i.e. Thailand🇹🇭, Philippines 🇵🇭, Malaysia 🇲🇾, Indonesia 🇮🇩, Vietnam 🇻🇳, Cambodia 🇰🇭, Myanmar 🇲🇲 or even Brunei 🇧🇳. A combination of Modern Architecture surrounded by old British 🇬🇧 colonial buildings with lush foliage on the skyscrapers. Very westernized and contemporary yet still preserve the old rustic looks of old village settings. The price of accommodation and food tends to be on the pricey side if you dine on a mostly touristy flank. Go to hawker centers for cheaper options in Singapore 🇸🇬. There is plenty of it here and to approximate is beyond comparison. Hope you relish the adventure of staying here in Singapore 🇸🇬. The Gardens by the Bay is a nature park spanning 101 hectares (250 acres) in the Central Region of Singapore 🇸🇬, adjacent to the Marina Reservoir. The park consists of three waterfront gardens: Bay South Garden (in Marina South), Bay East Garden (in Marina East) and Bay Central Garden (in Downtown Core and Kallang). The largest of the gardens is the Bay South Garden at 54 hectares (130 acres) designed by Grant Associates. Its Flower Dome is the largest glass greenhouse in the world. Little India Singapore 🇸🇬:- Little India is truly one of Singapore's most colourful historical districts. Lime pits, brick kilns and a race track once dotted the neighbourhood, and its streets thronged with herdsmen, merchants and garland makers plying their trade. To this day, this enclave of Indian culture retains its unique heritage. •Why is it called Little India in Singapore? Its location along the Serangoon River originally made it attractive for raising cattle, and trade in livestock was once prominent in the area. Eventually, other economic activity developed, and by the turn of the 20th century, the area began to look like an ethnic Indian neighbourhood.
