In addition to its diverse cuisine and culture, the Lion Island is also famous for its eye-catching check-in locations. Below are a few suggestions not to be missed when visiting Singapore. Not only do these areas have beautiful "virtual life" photos, they are also close to entertainment, shopping, and dining venues, making it convenient for tourists to schedule their visit.

Gelam Gallery - Street Art "Paradise"

Originally a waste disposal and delivery area, the grounds around Muscat Street in Kampong Gelam are now transformed into the Gelam Gallery, an open-air museum that celebrates Singaporean art and culture through vibrant murals and mosaics by 30 local and international artists.

Each work is accompanied by a description board, helping visitors understand the meaningful story behind it and its creator. You will admire the bold color blocks with unique designs by JabaOne, who also brought life to Haji Lane.

Mandala motifs, typical of East Asian culture, are also vividly recreated by artist Bianca Goetz. The exhibition also features Cynthia Wang's "magic windows" with fairies engrossed in watching peacocks spread their tails.

Gelam Gallery is located at the intersection of North Bridge Road, Baghdad Street and Muscat Street, and is free to enter all day. After taking photos, visitors can spend time exploring Kampong Gelam - one of the oldest neighborhoods in the island. You can visit the Vintage Camera's Museum, visit Masjid Sultan - Singapore's oldest mosque, or shop for souvenirs at Haji Lane...

Alkaff Bridge - one of the most beautiful bridges in Singapore

Alkaff Bridge is a pedestrian bridge that crosses the Singapore River, connecting the central area with Robertson Quay, near the old Alkaff Quay. The 55-meter-long steel bridge weighs 230 tons and is named after a prominent Arab family in the 1900s in the island nation. The bridge resembles a "tongkang", a light boat used in ancient times to transport goods across rivers.

Construction began in 1997, and after two years, it was repainted in vibrant colors by Filipino artist Pacita Abad in early 2004. She and her team used 900 liters of industrial paint in 55 different colors, transforming Alkaff into Singapore's first "bridge of art."

The Alkaff Bridge is an artistic symbol linking the island nation and the Philippines. The structure was repainted in June 2019 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries. After checking in, visitors can stroll along Robertson Quay, join an art workshop at STPI Creative Workshop & Gallery, or relax at The Book Café...

National Orchid Garden at Singapore Botanic Gardens

Located at 1 Cluny Rd, the National Orchid Garden is one of the largest orchid gardens in the world and is open from 8:30am to 7pm daily. Located within the Singapore Botanic Gardens, the 3-hectare National Orchid Garden is home to over 600 species of orchids from around the world.

One of the garden's "muses" is the Dancing Lady Orchid, which grows in clusters and is arranged in patches, creating a beautiful visual effect. Another equally famous species is the Tiger Orchid, the largest in the world with striped patterns and giant roots.

In addition to orchids, the garden also has plants associated with ancient Egyptian culture such as the Gingerbread Palm (or Silver Flower Vine with leaves as wide as elephant ears). In the garden there is also Burkill Hall - a wartime house with ancient architecture, currently being repaired to organize parties and weddings for guests in need.

One of the most expensive areas of the orchid garden is the VIP area with a collection of orchids named after famous people such as Dendrobium Margaret Thatcher or Mokara Laura Bush. This area also honors the national flower of Singapore - Vanda Miss Joaquim. This orchid symbolizes the beauty and vitality of the island nation's people.

In addition to the orchid garden, visitors can conveniently visit the Rainforest. This place grows many species of plants typical of the hot and humid tropical climate. Nearby is the SBG Heritage Museum, which tells stories about the historical milestones of the Singapore Botanic Gardens. You will learn more about tropical plants or even agricultural economics.

Koon Seng Road - a famous "virtual living" spot for young people

One of Singapore’s most colourful streets, Koon Seng Road in Katong-Joo Chiat is famous for its rows of pastel-coloured houses of the Peranakans, descendants of Chinese traders and the indigenous people of the Malay archipelago. In Singapore, the Peranakan heritage is most evident in this neighbourhood, creating an interesting multicultural picture.

If you want to have beautiful check-in photos at Koon Seng Road, visitors should choose clothes with light pastel colors. Morning or early afternoon is the ideal time to take photos. In addition, it is also important to note not to make noise, maintain public order, and avoid affecting the people living here. Photo: Singapore Tourism Board

After the photo session, if you are interested in Peranakan culture, you can visit The Intan private museum in the neighborhood with more than 5,000 antiques. The nearby Rumah Bebe shop offers a wide range of porcelain, fabrics, and traditional Peranakan costumes for you to buy as gifts. There are also restaurants, beading workshops, and making and selling... to meet the diverse needs of visitors of all ages.

With the above suggestions, visitors will not have to worry about lacking "virtual life" photos for their upcoming visit to the lion island. Near these famous check-in locations are attractive entertainment, shopping, and dining venues. These promise to be options worth considering for visitors looking for a place to entertain, explore cuisine, and culture all day long.
