6 Sights & Landmarks in Victoria That You Shouldn't Miss

July 3, 2021 Leida Jutras

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.

Cathedral of the Good Shepherd

Reviewed By LesterC172 - Singapore, Singapore

Visit the cathedral after 7pm and soak in the beautiful architecture, life sized lighted angels and Nativity Scene. Not to be missed is the huge Christmas Village Mockup at the Annex Building. It is so Christmassy and joyful we did not want to leave. Amazingly, all this was done by Church Volunteers and the parish. Lovely simply love. Worth a trip on its own. 2 thumbs up.

Kuan Yin Thong Hood Cho Temple

Reviewed By CandaceT145 - Singapore, Singapore

This temple is visited by local and tourists and always crowded. It is good to give thank for the good things that happened/ going to happen in our life and pray for good health, career and children etc. There are vendors outside the temple selling flowers, joss sticks for offerings. Some people will also meditate/ Chant prayed in this temple. Highly recommended but the tourists need to be respectful of the people praying there.

Church of Saints Peter and Paul

Reviewed By Food9er

Was in Singapore on business and was looking for a church to go to while staying at the o mandarin orchard. Church is maybe a $10 cab ride away. The parishioner were very welcoming to visitors and I felt very comfortable. Sermon was well done as well. I'd go back in a minute.

I just read a review by POODW who gave a review not worthy of bothering to post.He stated that it was the most unfriendly synagogue he had ever been to Where did this man wake up. He must have gone there looking for a pat on the back because he attended. Well, we have been there twice in the last few years, and each time I was greeted by somebody . And as a tourist, looking for a sense of home away from home, I got what I wanted, a Saturday service. The warm handshakes later , the greeting from others who are regular as well as regular seasonal, was more than welcoming, and I am still in contact with them years later. This was all a bonus and made for a lovely extended morning at least until 2 pm. The best part. Was this time my hotel was actually just behind the building so I did not require transport. The rabbi, is a very genuine fellow, warm and welcoming, and the guest speaker who happened to be there was interesting and informative. Many people at the place were tourists and everybody was interested in each other. A great place, and I / we look forward to coming back.
