Stay : A weekend in Singapore
Most flights from Paris arrive in the late afternoon. As soon as you land, you can immediately return to the top to discover Singapore on the roof of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel or at One-Altitude, the highest open-air bar in Asia, just like that!

Detail of the stay : A weekend in Singapore - 2 days
Day 1: Discovery of Singapore
Steps: Singapore City
The morning can be spent visiting the colonial district of Singapore and why not start at the very place where Sir Stamford Raffles first landed on January 19, 1819. This tour will show you the neo-classical style monuments of the British era. Take advantage of this first day to visit the Asian Civilizations Museum, which allows you to understand the richness of the cultures that make up Singapore's multi-ethnic society. You can also visit the National Museum of Singapore, which offers a fun walk through the city's history.
In the afternoon, head to Fort Canning Park, for a walk through the spice garden, but also for a visit of the former British bunker during World War II.
In the evening you can stroll along the river, dine in the trendy new district of the rehabilitated former customs house with a superb view of Marina Bay, or at the Esplanade and continue to Marina Bay Sands to try your luck at the casino.
Day 2: Botanism and architecture
Steps: Singapore City
You can start the day with the beautiful botanical garden and a visit to its orchid garden. After the calm of the garden, stroll along the famous Orchard Road, with its large hotels and shopping malls that follow each other (and look alike). Don't miss the charming Emerald Hill Street and its beautiful Perenakan houses, ideal for a lunch or coffee break.
The afternoon can be devoted, at your choice, to visiting the Chinatown or Little India districts. Go to Little India preferably on a Sunday. The temples are particularly lively and immigrant workers from India and Bangladesh take advantage of this single day to go out with friends, do their weekly shopping or send money to the family back home.
In the evening, seafood dinner (the must-see black pepper crab) in East Coast facing the sea and the incessant ballet of ships.
