The Singapore cityscape looks like it was ripped from the pages of a science fiction comic book. If you’re hungry for a true Singapore experience, sample the myriad street foods or take a cultural cooking class. The Botanic Gardens and the Gardens By the Bay offer a slice of horticultural heaven, and the observation deck of the Sands SkyPark makes you feel like you’re high above the clouds. The banks and walkways along the Singapore River bustle with local activity.

CHIJMES (pronounced “chimes”) stands for the Convent of the Holy Infant Jesus, a Neo-Classical style building which houses one of Singapore’s most aesthetically-pleasing dining and entertainment venues.
Chijmes with a silent J is a mouthful word to say unless you wanna spell and spread out the whole "Convent of the Holy Infant Jesus Middle Education School Singapore" that its short of. And with that gothic architecture and spire it can only be an European designed Catholic Church. Except it's not. But it did used to be the nun run sister act girls school as well as orphanage where people would leave their unwanted infant girls for nuns to raise. Now this glittering, glamorous shopping and dining complex is serving the community in much more modest way by providing a wedding venue, high end shopping, dining experience and allows leaving only tips and good reviews behind. It's still a national monument and heritage landmark though and very distinctive among all other modern buildings.

I stumbled across this building whilst walking around the Clarke Quay/ Dhouby Ghaut area. (Hill Street) I had to wait for the traffic to clear to get my photo, but definitely worth the wait

Lau Pa Sat has a vast array of food stalls offering cuisines from around the world. The prices are very cheap, and the food was still very tasty. I would recommend seating in the middle of the market, as if you're on the outer ring you may be pestered by people trying to push their stall/dishes.

The Singapore Parliament is just that- the legislative institution for Singapore. It is in a great location (of course) in a slightly unassuming building. It is directly opposite the other branch of government, the judiciary [the quirky Supreme Court]. The SG Parliament is good for photos and makes a nice backdrop. Also, you can enter the Parliament via a side entrance [on the Supreme Court side] and has a gift shop, some historical artefacts and you can view proceedings should they be happening at the time of your visit.
