It is a lot of hype. There are 3 places worth visiting- the domed garden(s), the light shows and the night lights at the viewing platform. The heat and the humidity is killing and little India, China town etc are not worth a second glance.
I would recommend you not advised people to get the tourist MRT card oh you have to do is tap your credit card and it pays for the Ride you don't need unlimited rides you're not going to spend that much money
That looks like an expensive destination. Is that really an Asian country?
Poor thing, Singapore is so humid, Ashley soaked in sweats⦠even for locals, is quite unbearable.
In the video, you showed an Indian temple and a Buddhist temple; you can also find a Mosque (one of the oldest in Singapore) along the same stretch of road. Singapore is probably one of the few countries in the world where you can find different religions and places of worship along a single stretch of road, less than 800m long.
Visited a few years ago. The heat was.....intense, even early morning. As a result though I spent quite a bit time of time in the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, sitting upstairs on a bench in the AC, just listening and relaxing.
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=289">4:49</a> that's not a high rise hotel, that's public housing. <a href="UCkszU2WH9gy1mb0dV-11UJg/xsIfY4OqCd2T29sP54iAsAw"></a> Which only proves your point how amazing Singapore is!
i loved my recent trip to Singapore.. but it was humid hottt., but i am glad i didnβt encounter any rainy weather during my trip β¨

The high rise hotel you referred to at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=287">4:47</a> is actually public housing, commonly known as SkyVille@Dawson.
So the unloved hand touched your plate ?
Singapore is one place where many of the locals / permanent residents cannot wait to go back after their 10 days holiday. The safety, orderly manners, food selection, ease of getting around and getting things done right+fast just make life easier. Only issues we have as locals are 1) Prices 2) Weather.
the skywalk is even better at night when the musical show starts

Absolutely itβs an amazing place to visit and so much to do for such a small size country.
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=285">4:45</a> Correction: that was not a high-rise hotel but a HDB flat (the tallest in Singapore in 2026)<br>Hopes this helps
The transport card "EZ link card" which you may keep as a souvenir if you don't return it to get a refund.
Hi hoped u enjoyed ur visit here, now watching ur vid
Actually alighting at Gardens by the Bay station is not very convenient. It would have been better if you alight at Bayfront station
I'm about to go to Singapore next week. This was a great video thank you.
welcome too my homeland SINGAPORE πΈπ¬π¦πΈπ¬ MAJULAH SINGAPURA πΈπ¬π¦πΈπ¬
Behind Maxwell hawker there is an URA building, the ground floor has a permanent exhibit that explainsβ¦.Singapore urban planning. Worth to take a look and soak in the air conditioning on a hot day.
Living in Singapore about 8 years now and what i can say that is so impressive to me is how 6 million people move about so orderly and respectfully to each other and the environment, how clean it is, how safe it is, its efficiency, its transportation, etc. .Shopping and food establishments are plentiful. The vibe is good. What I donβt like is the difficulty finding parking, finding seating as well the line ups at banks and food establishments at certain times of the day. Housing and vehicles are expensive. Its not a exciting place but its definitely worth seeing. Put it on your bucket list.
Actually, Singapore used to be and will always be a Malay country. Our National Anthem is in Malay. Most of the mrt stations and street names are in Malay. Our money has Yusof Bin Ishak face (our first Malay President). Even some of the local Chinese and Indians can speak Malay too..<br><br>But when it comes to business and money making, Chinese are really good at it..<br><br>Ps. Iβm a Malay Singaporean
Welcome to Singapore.
So is your title clickbait, a tactic used by so many YouTubers to get people to watch their videos, because you didn't answer your own question - is Singapore as good as they say?
I'm going to guess you was there in about mid november? I must have just missed you..I spent a week there from nov 27th with my mum and the gardens by the bay trees were cordend off the night we went due to the winter wonderland opening as they then charged to get in..its normally free. Still do the light show but play lot off christmas songs instead off the usual other types off music. A word off advise to anyone ..I thought nov/dec in singapore was without doubt the hottest I have ever known it there...especially at night. Ive been in march before a few times and I do not think it seemed to be quite a hot and humid...saying that though singapore is hot...and humid so be warned !
No visit to Singapore is complete without paying, and entering the Flower Dome and Cloud Forest in Gardens by the Bay. Every first Thursday of the month there is a free guided walk inside the Flower Dome at 2pm and 3.30pm for the Cloud Forest. No need to register. Just turn up.<br>I see that you only went to the Supertrees which is free. That is a real pity. A real pity. Maybe your stay was a layover. So, next time.<br>I am glad you enjoy the rest of the visit. Thank you for the video
The chicken is actually boiled, and then soaked in cold water for a while, and boiled again. Thereafer, they scoop the top layer of the broth (which contains that chicken oil) to cook the rice. I have forgotten the exact details, but that was what was shared from an old hawker stall owner who used to sell chicken rice.
very good angle videos and photos taking ππ
Not bad at least u knew stuff better than most visitors I've seen
Staying at an airport hotel? Awww... You might have missed out on an immersive experience by not staying in Chinatown, or Little India. Anyway, good first impressions, since your video covered my old stomping ground. Best hawker centers? Maxwell and Chinatown Complex get my thumbs ups, but Tian Tian is overrated for chicken rice.
Lady Gaga was eating at Maxwell food centre when she held her concert here π€
I totally enjoyed your content. it is very natural and i appreciate how you just enjoy the moment when you are in singapore. Welcome and you got my sub. i like it when content creators come in to singapore and just experience it. it's a nice city and there is always something cultural and fun in little corners of this tiny island.
Just wondering if yall filmed this video two years ago hahah because it seemed like the year of the rabbit
Eating rice with spoon is easier than using forkπ
Who dafuq eats rice with a fork??
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=687">11:27</a> actually a little deceiving but reaching the supertrees from the Gardens by the Bay station is a little further than the Bayfront station
Just a quick tip, if you are planning to go to gardens by the bay supertrees, go to bayfront and walk from there. The gardens by the bay mrt station is new and it is pretty far from the main attractions. Everything used to be built with Bayfront (MBS hotel/the infinity pool hotel that has a ship on top) MRT station in mind so alight there, the walk is more entertaining from there anyways.
Arya Stark did not go west, she went south and came to Singapore
Along the strech of the Chinese and Hindu temple in Chinatown there is one of the oldest mosque in Singapore known as Masjid Jamae built ard 1830s and sultan mosque is built in 1820s not 1920s as you mention in your clip. Btw Maxwell hawker centre is overrated, you can just take a train ride and stop at any stop and explore the heartland of Singapore and eat at the coffee shop or hawker center there.
Best country in the world. Safe, clean, easy to get around. Go outside the general tourist spots and see some of the real Singapore, and you will fall in love with the place. Go for a walk around Bedok or MacRitchie Reservoir. Eat in food courts under HDBs. Go places where you have to get a bus, rather than a taxi or MRT. If you have younger children with you there are splash pads and water play parks all over. Even the revamped Chinese and Japanese Gardens, and Lake Side Gardens are normally overlooked by tourists who want to stay on Sentosa or the Downtown Core area.
Ashley, at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=288">4:48</a>, you mentioned there is a high-rise hotel at the back. Actually thatβs one of our first tallest public housing in town, aptly called The Pinnacle of Duxton π
Welcome to Singapore :) And yes, the food is amazing at hawker centres! There are also other types of hawker centres that we call Kopitiam too! Hokkien mee is the best Singaporean food to me, itβs delicious β€ have fun in sg!
The angles when you film are so nice, and it's so nicely edited. As a Singaporean, I love this video!
You guys are such champs for exploring in the heat of the day. Us locals would be spending most of our time in the A/C malls.
Welcome to Singapore
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=75">1:15</a> RIP C151
I love seeing SG through the eyes of visitors, itβs a beautiful country.
Singapore is safe I've never seen a very serious crime before
Greetings from Singapore! I just discovered this channel, subscribed as I'm curious with your travel content. Hope you enjoy your time in Singapore, there are still many places worth checking out!
Come to malaysia and you'll realise how sterile and boring singapore is
come, migrate here, start a new life and build your family here. you will love this place more and more.
Thank you for visiting Singapore! We hope you enjoyed your stay here!
<b>You should have watch the 2nd super tress show...its better. Anyway, looks like you're having a good time</b>
If you get a chance, go to Chestnut Nature park on a week day. It's super quiet and you see amazing wildlife in natural habitat. Better than the zoo. Apart from plenty of macaques (monkeys) I often spot mouse deer and if you're lucky, large sambar deer. Plenty of amazing birds and insects too. It's truly a hidden gem.
The basement (B1) of the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple<br>houses a vegetarian food court<br>Lian Xin Vegetarian Food Court<br>: This air-conditioned food court, also known as the "Five Contemplations Hall<br>," offers a variety of budget-friendly vegetarian dishes, including mixed rice, noodles, laksa, and Western food options. Hot and cold plain water is available for free. The menu changes on a rotational basis. You can find more information about their menu on the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple website.<br>for those who wants a cheap budget option.
When going to hawker centers and kopitiams, it is a good idea to put a packet of tissue paper, your water bottle or any item you have that is not expensive or valuable on an empty table before scouting out the food options. This is known as chopeing here, a local way of reserving a table.<br><br>If you can't find anywhere else to seat and you don't happen to be filming, you can find a person eating alone and ask if you can share the table with them, most of the time, they won't mind some company
Welcome to our beautiful country! β€οΈ
great vlog video! thanks for sharing
Hope that you enjoy your stay here. Do let us know if you need someone to bring you around.<br>Rainy season recently started, do bring umbrella out if possible
Your video is awesome
Now you're so close to my home country(Indonesia)<br><br>Hope you enjoy your time at Singapore! And hopefully explore more of Asia while you're at itβ€
I would rent a bike to ride to and around Gardens by the Bay and along the East Coast and around the Marina Bay area to the Merlion. The HelloRide and Anywheel bike rentals are everywhere.
If you drive in Singapore what you are going to see is every 100m to 200m you can see contractor working or contraction equipment πΉπΊ
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=984">16:24</a> expensive housing, cars, education, fancy stuff<br>Thank goodness tourist stuff is cheaper for citizens and permanent residents
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=289">4:49</a> the big 'hotel' is one of 5he most famous hdb (housing development board so yes public houses) in Singapore. The cool sky bridge also just h9lds 2 world records cuz why not
Lau Pa Sat is a horrible tourist trap. Mediocre food at exorbitant prices
Just a credit card is enough to use the MRT.
So glad you enjoyed your stay here in Singapore. If you ever decide to come back again, do check out Sushi Airways at Baghdad Street. The Japanese food there is awesome. It is pricey but so worth the experience and taste that you get. You can also check out Old Airport Road Hawker Centre too.
A lot of tourists don't seem to know this, but you can pay using your Master or VISA cards, either physical card or with your phone app, when you're using the MRT. I don't actually know if the tourist pass is worth it, but fee is calculated by distrance travelled so unless you're going to be using the card a lot of the day, there really isn't a need for it!<br><br>Also most hawkers in Singapore actually accept payment by QR code or directly with card, though definitely some stalls do only accept cash so its good to have some on hand when travelling around here.
You need to go to the upper floors and roof top garden of the Buddha and Relic temple! The best parts are not on the ground floor. Learn more about the life of the Buddha and see the treasured relics (crystal-like remains of his body after cremation).<br>You also missed a must-see place nearby - URA City Gallery! It's free and it showcases the concepts behind Singapore's city planning. Must, must, must see for all tourists!
Visit food stalls from crowded locations and not from CBD area.. <br><br>Thatβs the better food and lower prices that Tourists can really enjoy
Hope u go JB..more modern more clean more affordable more safe that literally police can sleep in their job.. Kl is even more ultra modern..like Dubai..Singapore is like Malaysiaβs 90s a little catching up
@<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=351">5:51</a> Ah Qing Lor Mee is good. you should try.
you arrived too early to Chinatown.
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=900">15:00</a> Lau Pa Sat translates literally to "old market". One of the oldest extant hawker centres in SG; Also one of the more expensive, since it is located on valuable business district land.
Singapore is a beautiful place, but don't expect a friendly welcome!
If you like city lifestyle Singapore is for you, if you prefer village lifestyle then here is the wrong place. 2 sides to a coin
Singapore is clean, safe. Food no issue. Public transport no issue. But it is expensive. No sugar coating.
So glad you guys enjoyed your Singapore trip and the local food.
Suggest you visit the home gallery at the HDB hub at Toa Payoh central via MRT, where you get to see the showroom of public housing. Meant for locals who want to buy but has become a hotspot for visitors who are curious to know more about the life of locals
Welcome to Singapore!<br>It is nearer to walk from Bay Front MRT station to Gardens by the Bay than from Gardens by the Bay station.<br>If you venture out to the heartlands (where most residential areas are), the hawker centre foods will be even cheaper. Ask the locals, and it is not necessary to follow what most vloggers suggest, as those are very touristy places.
Hi,<br>I just finished your video and it kept me hooked from start to finish.<br>Your explanation style feels natural and builds instant trust with the audience.<br>While reviewing it, I noticed a subtle tweak in the title/description that can dramatically improve reach and impressions.<br>If you want, I can share exactly what to doβitβs simple but powerful.
That tasty and tender chicken was steamed, not boiled, fyi.
Its only expensive in Singapore if you try to live like a multi-millionaire, or if you have pre-conceptions of Singapore being 'asian', so it has to cheap. It's a place with the highest incomes in the world (job-for-job) and so it can't be cheap like some might imagine asian developing countries are.
Who is "they" lol.
If still in Singapore try chicken rice at B1-35 Golden Mile food centre at Beach Road. MUCH BETTER than Tian Tian
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=290">4:50</a> - not a high rise hotel. Its public housing owned by Singaporeans (on 99-year lease). You can get to the roof gardens by paying a small fee (I think $5 or something), just something to limit footfall to not disturb the neighbourhood...but you can head up there and have a bird's eye view. The mid-floor garden I recall is free of charge, just take the lift up. Its a public place.<br><br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=687">11:27</a> - Fun fact, the supertrees are not just decorative, but hide the filtered chimney of underground generators that power the domes and garden.
Singapore is expensive because of real estate, and cars. It is also expensive if you do fine dining, attend international schools, exercise passes, gym memberships, basically very specific stuff.
Hey go to Malaysia π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ
A very nice video! Maybe visit residential areas on top of tourist areas as well, to see the average life here. <br>Also, the original Sultan Mosque was built in 1824, but demolished to make way for the current building, which was completed in 1932.
@<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbBnoEpPDc&t=330">5:30</a> That's the biggest hawker center in Singapore.
I like your calm energies - both of you combine so well:)
Little India, Kampong Glam, Zoo, Bird Park, National Library, Bugis. Many places you can explore around.
Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Museum is completed 2007 no 1990s
Welcome to Singapore, hope you enjoyed your stay here!
Cool !... π
