Glorious Food!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>One of the greatest things about Singapore is the food scene. From hawker centres to fancy restaurants, Singapore has it all. Singapore\u2019s most celebrated dishes include chicken rice, chilli crab, fish head curry\u2026 and let\u2019s not forget the ice cream sandwiches! Food in Singapore manifests the diverse ethnic groups that inhabit the island but adds a local twist.<\/p>\n<p>The hawker&#8217;s centres will give you a true \u2018taste\u2019 of Singapore. Don\u2019t let appearances put you off. Some of the hawker&#8217;s stalls are established local favourites for over 40 years and long queues form early. Food is very much a favourite pastime of Singaporeans. Consider a stop by Chinatown; Makansutra Gluttons Bay; the Maxwell Food Centre; and Lau Pat Sat, situated in a 19th-century building in the CBD.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2139\" style=\"width: 4510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><noscript><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2139\" class=\"wp-image-2139 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071.jpg\" alt=\"Famous Curry Noodles, Singapore\" width=\"4500\" height=\"3003\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071.jpg 4500w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 4500px) 100vw, 4500px\"><\/noscript><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2139\" class=\"wp-image-2139 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%204500%203003%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"Famous Curry Noodles, Singapore\" width=\"4500\" height=\"3003\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%204500%203003%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 4500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 4500px) 100vw, 4500px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071.jpg 4500w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Singapore-famous-curry-noodle_dreamstime_xxl_31985071.jpg\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-2139\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Famous Curry Noodles, Singapore<\/p><\/div>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Efficient Public Transport<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Getting around Singapore using public transport is simple and efficient. The Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) network of trains is the most time-efficient and cheapest way of navigating Singapore. Taxis in Singapore are metred, air-conditioned, drivers speak English and fares are generally quite reasonable in comparison to taxi-travel in Australia. Taxis are a great way to access parts of Singapore inaccessible by MRT.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Shopping, shopping, shopping!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It&#8217;s a shopper\u2019s paradise and most importantly&nbsp;&#8211; sales are generally year-round. Singapore&#8217;s&nbsp;Great Singapore Sale&nbsp;happens annually between 25 May and 22 July, with huge discounts on offer.<\/p>\n<p>The world-famous Orchard Road has an impressive selection of shopping options. Large malls like ION Orchard and Paragon are home to international luxury brands. At Marina Bay, more high-end brands are in The Shoppes. Bugis Street and Haji Lane have a selection of trendy, eclectic stores. The Mustafa Centre in Little India is open 24 hours a day and you will find anything and everything there!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2143\" style=\"width: 3455px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><noscript><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2143\" class=\"wp-image-2143 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323.jpg\" alt=\"Singapore City Shop Housefronts\" width=\"3445\" height=\"2322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323.jpg 3445w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323-768x518.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323-1024x690.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3445px) 100vw, 3445px\"><\/noscript><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2143\" class=\"wp-image-2143 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%203445%202322%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"Singapore City Shop Housefronts\" width=\"3445\" height=\"2322\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%203445%202322%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 3445w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3445px) 100vw, 3445px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323.jpg 3445w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323-768x518.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323-1024x690.jpg 1024w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Shop-House_Singapore-City_dreamstimeextralarge_39085323.jpg\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-2143\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Singapore City Shop Housefronts<\/p><\/div>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Iconic Singapore Skyline<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The construction of Marina Bay Sands, a multi-billion dollar boat-shaped resort has created a stunning and iconic skyline.

A ticket is required to visit the public Observation Deck or you can enjoy a meal or drink in KU D\u00c9 TA, a multi-sensory experience with incredible views, music and a delicious menu. A popular time to visit is at sunset for cocktails and glistening panoramic views.<\/p>\n<p>The Singapore Flyer also provides magnificent views of the city.
