Best Things to Do

Night view

一起去，更远的地方

Booking tickets on Ctrip is convenient and cost-effective. The night view is very good. You can see the whole night view. The air conditioning is also sufficient. It is quite comfortable to play. The queue is only a few minutes, which is efficient.

There are very few tourists, only locals doing fitness. The orchid house is worth visiting, and the dining and service facilities are also very good. We stayed here for half a day and it was worth it.

Natural scenery

205***26

Sentosa Island is very good, the theme park has more projects, Jurassic Park, Xiaohuangren, etc. On the island, the ecology is mainly good, there are many birds, and I have seen seagulls, peacocks and lizards. The accommodation is more expensive. The hotel does not provide breakfast. Others are OK.

National Museum of Singapore

Museums

M54***65

There are not many people in the museum, probably because of the rain, it is very empty. It should be a good experience for people who like to visit exhibitions. For me, there are almost no exhibits, all text boards, and the cost performance is low compared to domestic museums.
