10 Places I've Never Heard of Until I Came to Singapore. In this video, I want to share 10 impressive places in Singapore, so let's get started!
Number one is the Art Science Museum at Marina Bay Sands. The Art Science Museum opened in 2011.
It is the world's first art science museum. The Art Science Museum features various exhibitions
throughout the year. One of my favorites is The Future World and in particular Crystal Universe
where they showcase hundreds of thousands of LED lights using 4D vision technology. Number
two. Also at Marina Bay Sands is the world's first floating Apple store appropriately called Apple
Marina Bay Sands. It is a sphere-shaped dome that is completely made of glass that sits
on the water with a connecting dock and walkway. Inside the store, you can get a 360-degree view
of the Singapore skyline. Number three is Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall. Victoria
Theatre and Concert Hall is one of Singapore's oldest performing arts venues. It consists of two
complexes one of which is a theatre and the other is a concert hall joined together by a
large clock tower in the middle. In 2010, Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall underwent a four-year
158 million dollar renovation. There are quite a number of events and concerts you can check out
at Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall throughout the year. Another impressive place in Singapore
is the Fountain of Wealth. It is located at Suntec City. It is among the world's tallest
water fountains. The fountain is made of this large bronze ring that is supported by four columns.
It weighs about 85 tons and covers an area of more than 1,600 square meters.
There are some laser shows and events near the fountain at night that you can check out.
Number five is Esplanade. Esplanade is this huge performing arts center. It is by far one of my favorite places to visit in Singapore. I've been to Esplanade more than 10 times and I
am impressed every time I'm there. The design of Esplanade is really unique. It consists of
two durian-shaped buildings. Esplanade consists of a concert hall, a theater, and several smaller
studios. If you like music (especially classical music) and you want to check out a concert when
you visit Singapore, definitely go to Esplanade. Number six. Another impressive place in Singapore
is Gardens by the Bay. Gardens by the Bay is one of Singapore's top attractions. It, in my opinion, is a
botanical paradise. You can find 18 supertrees at Gardens by the Bay. Supertrees are these really
tall vertical gardens 12 of which you can find at Supertree Grove where you can enjoy a free light
show at night. The trees light up with some music. It's a really calm and relaxing place to visit.
The Rhapsody Light Show is at 7:45 and 8:45 pm every day. Number seven. Another impressive place in
Singapore is Bugis Street. It is a massive market. It consists of many shops occupying three levels
where you can find some delicious food, arcade, cheap clothing, souvenirs, and many other things.
For some reason every time I go to Bugis Street I get these kaya balls. Kaya is this coconut
jam. It's extremely popular in Singapore. These kaya balls are really soft. They have kaya filling
inside that's very sweet. You can also grab a drink at Bugis Street. I got this sugarcane juice
for $1.50 SGD. Another impressive place in Singapore is Hajin Lane. Haji Lane is this really
vibrant spot in Singapore that is full of colorful murals, cafes, and boutiques. You can enjoy the art,
do some shopping. eat some delicious food, and take a stroll all in one place. Fun fact: Haji Lane
is among the narrowest streets in Singapore. Number nine. Another impressive place in Singapore is Yale-NUS.
Yale-NUS was established in 2011. It is the first liberal arts university in Singapore. It
is a collaboration between Yale University and the The National University of Singapore. Not surprising
the acceptance rate at Yale-NUS is extremely low (around 5%). The diversity of the program is
also very impressive with many nationalities represented. Number 10. Another impressive place
in Singapore is Ghim Moh Market and Food Centre. it is one out of 114 market and hawker centers
in Singapore. Opened in 1978, Ghim Moh Market and Food Centre has more than 70 food stalls offering a
wide range of snacks and dishes including chwee kueh, curry rice, and duck rice. Ghim Moh even has a
few food stalls that have won the Michelin Gourmand award. Thank you so much for watching. If you have any
