Singapore is also a popular tourist city. Today, I'm going to talk about some relevant tourism strategies about Singapore. The main contents include Singapore's transportation, food, scenic spots and so on. It's a relatively complete strategy. You can have a look at it.
Travel in Singapore
Because there are not many natural resources in Singapore, most of the tourist attractions are man-made, including the whole Sentosa Island, which is mainly built with man-made landscape and recreational facilities. The whole Binhai Bay, that is, the landscape near the Jinsha Hotel, is also built after reclamation. The only natural landscape is the beach on Sentosa Island, which is the southernmost beach in the Asian continent, and many people go to see it.
In fact, we didn't visit too many scenic spots in Singapore because we took the children with us this time. Moreover, many interesting scenic spots can only be missed because of the height restriction for the children. Generally speaking, it sounds that Singapore's landscape is man-made, which is a bit boring. But in fact, these heavily funded landscapes are really worth visiting. Whether they include the zoo area, Binhai Bay Garden, or universal studios, they all have their own unique features.
In other words, when traveling in Singapore, many places can book tickets in advance on Taobao, including family tickets or joint tickets. The price will be much cheaper than buying tickets at the scene, and there is no need to go to the ticket office to queue up, so it's faster to enter the park.
1. Singapore Zoo area
In fact, there are three parks near the Singapore Zoo, one is the regular day zoo, the second is the river zoo, and the third is the night zoo.
It's said that the night zoo is worth visiting, but it doesn't open until after 7 p.m., so it's hard for two or three-year-old children to hold on. The river zoo mainly displays animals in different waters, and the highlight is the experience by boat, which is very interesting. Unfortunately, the height of a boat must be more than 102CM, so we have to give up. In addition, there is also a bird zoo, which is very interesting. Although it's not big, it's very unique. I didn't go to it this time.
As far as the level of day zoo in Singapore is concerned, the viewing atmosphere and species richness are good, and it is quite clean. Basically, you can see all kinds of animals in close range, including elephants, and you can feed them interactively. Although the day zoo in Singapore is small, it is also very convenient, because you are not tired when you walk down, and the family ticket also includes the commuter bus in the park, which saves a lot of physical strength.
However, if compared with the domestic wildlife world of Guangzhou Changlong, there is still a certain gap. There is a completely open-air tourist area in Changlong, and there are more species. Therefore, if you look at the long dragon and then look at the Singapore Zoo, you will be disappointed. If you don't look at the long dragon, it's still worth feeling, and it's enough for children.
Another pity is that when we arrived, a polar bear named inuka, the star animal of the zoo, died just over a month ago. This is the world's first polar bear born in the tropics and has accompanied a real generation of young Singaporeans. Later, the Singapore Zoo closed the entire polar bear hall and put up big mourning slogans to show Singaporeans' Nostalgia and love for it. It is said that Singapore Zoo will not raise polar bears any more. This expensive and expensive low-temperature breeding room will bring a lot of greenhouse gases.
2. Universal Studios
When I come to Universal Studios in Singapore at this time, my biggest feeling is that there is no need to queue up for a single channel, and many projects can enjoy themselves! So I think it would be much faster if we didn't strongly require two people to sit together on the amusement facilities and suggest a single aisle. However, there is no Harry Potter park is a very big meaning, which for some female tourists lost a lot of resonance. In addition, Universal Studios in Singapore does not have a large film and television shooting area in Los Angeles, so it lacks a lot of amusement facilities to experience special effects.
When we went to Universal Studios, we happened to meet Jurassic world 2, so many places in the park are decorated with dinosaurs, which is a colorful egg for friends who like dinosaurs. I had planned to watch the dinosaur parade, but unfortunately I met with a shower, so the parade was cancelled. It would be interesting to see dinosaurs out of the street.
Singapore's transformers project experience is a must for many people, and this project is the same as Los Angeles in the United States, suitable for all ages. The Egyptian mummy project is more exciting. There are various mechanisms on the roller coaster in the dark. However, compared with the Los Angeles project, it seems that there is no fast backward link.
There are several projects in the park of Jurassic Park. There is a pterosaur flying in the air, which can't be compared with Osaka. It's just like pediatrics. It's like the torrent bravely entering the park, which doesn't have to queue up without a single channel. It should be very interesting. There's also a rotary pterosaur project for children.
Madagascar and Shrek are all children's areas. There are some 4D movies, small rafting projects, and some small roller coasters and carousels. You can feel them without queuing up. The most difficult rollover train has no single channel, which I dare not find a good excuse.
On the whole, Singapore's World Park is still very interesting, small is small, but the queue is fast, does not waste time, accompanied by the family is still very worthwhile.
3. Sea Aquarium
The aquarium in Singapore is next to Universal Studios, and there is a maritime museum next to it. For those of us who have just seen the Okinawa Aquarium, Singapore is also very good. Although it is not inferior to the whale shark, there is also a huge aquarium with a large number of manta rays in it, which is very powerful for swimming. On the other hand, there are all kinds of sharks in the aquarium at the entrance, including the hammerhead shark, which is not common. It's worth seeing.
The classification of sea aquarium is also very interesting. According to the classification of each ocean and different sea areas, if you look carefully, you can learn a lot. In addition, the aquarium also introduces some environmental protection knowledge, such as what kind of pollution will be caused by using too many plastic straws, etc., which has a very positive effect on environmental protection for children.
The most important point is that the glass surface of the aquarium in Singapore is very clear, and the water quality is also very clean. Unlike many aquariums, there is always a sense of turbidity, so the photos I took are also very clean.
4. Binhai Bay Garden
I thought that Binhai garden was just a botanical garden, and it was built more for the function of urban green space. However, after a long time, I found that Singapore has built a simple open park into a unique landscape world in the world. There are huge giant trees, which make it a spectacular scene - there are aerial footpaths on it, so people with acrophobia should be careful to enter; there are two huge glass cold rooms, which are made into a very unique gardening landscape; there are also several garden landscapes decorated very well. Of course, to get here, you can cross the overpass of Jinsha Hotel and look up at the famous Jinsha hotel.
Of course, two huge cold chambers are the focus. One is called flower dome, which presents the dry and cold climate of the Mediterranean region. Here, wonderful plants from deserts all over the world are gathered and cultivated; the other is more spectacular, which is called cloud forest, a 35 meter tall plant jungle, and a falling waterfall landscape.
I think it's especially powerful in the cloud forest. A large number of green plants cover a building. The water mist splashed by the waterfall makes the cold room feel more cold. In my opinion, yunwulin is an ideal garden. It reduces a mountain and a waterfall to the scale of a building, that is, it enlarges the human body so that we can intuitively feel the grandeur of nature. This kind of shock can only be understood through personal experience. In fact, you can go down from the seventh floor of the cloud forest. In addition to the corridor surrounding the air, each floor also has a display theme, which enriches the landscape.
When you come out of the Marina Bay Garden, you can see the huge ferris wheel next to you. It's a great place to watch Singapore's brilliant night scene. There is also an art gallery next to Binhai Bay. Originally, I planned to visit Marvel's ten-year exhibition, but as a result, the ticket office has been closed. Fortunately, there is a DC comic superhero coffee shop in Binhai Bay Shopping Mall, which may attract me more. The doll decoration and menu in it have something to do with superheroes.
Go to Singapore
Seeing Air China's promotion of air tickets to and from Singapore, he decided to take the other two friends on a trip. Air China gave a round-trip ticket price of 800 yuan per adult for Chengdu to Singapore in June, which was about 2100 yuan including taxes, while children's tickets were more than 2000 yuan. At that time, we thought that because Singapore is a high consumption country, it is generally suitable for cross-border tourism, which can save money on air tickets. But if the air tickets are very cheap, we can try.
There are not many direct flights from Chengdu to Singapore. Singapore Airlines does not even have official flights. It is only Sheng'an airlines, a subsidiary of the regional airlines, which is responsible for sharing, and it arrives in Singapore at 11:30 in the middle of the night. The flight time is not good. Fortunately, Sichuan Airlines and Air China also have two direct flights. Although the service of Air China is not good, and the plane is also Airbus 320, the time is very appropriate. It is not a morning flight or a red eye flight.
In addition, Singapore Changi Airport is almost the cheapest airport in Asia for cosmetics, so you can earn the tax money saved by buying cosmetics casually. Therefore, the round-trip price of 2000 yuan can't be bought at a loss, and can't be taken in.
Living in Singapore
The cost of accommodation in Singapore is totally beyond my imagination. I feel that it is about twice as expensive as the same hotels in China and 30% more expensive than hotels in Japan. To make a general price range, the average five-star hotel is about 2000 yuan / night, and it's normal for Hotels with top landscape to exceed 3000 yuan / night. Then there are four-star business / resort hotels. At 800 yuan-1200 yuan / night, the lower three-star hotels may also cost 600 yuan-800 yuan. Moreover, you should not think that it will be cheap to stay in Singapore. For example, the house we three families found costs 2500 yuan per night, and no one has made breakfast for you yet.
But another fact is that no matter how good a hotel you stay in, the room is only a little big, it's difficult to put a crib, and it can't be compared with the domestic housing area of the same star. In the final analysis, when traveling in Singapore, you need to be clear about how good a hotel you need to be. My thinking strategy is that most of the time you are playing outside, so it's unnecessary for hotels to spend too much money. We mainly have three priorities: appropriate price, including breakfast and convenient subway travel.
In terms of location, Singapore's accommodation area is mainly divided into three areas: urban central area (Orchard Road, Clarke wharf); Binhai Bay area; Sentosa area
