The most romantic places to visit in singapore

Whether you’re planning your honeymoon or celebrating a special occasion

with your other half in Singapore, you may be on the lookout for romantic

activities to do as a couple while on your travels. The good news is that

despite Singapore being an extremely small island, there is an abundance of day

trips, activities and gardens to do and explore. If you’re looking for some

inspiration for the perfect date, or perhaps even to surprise your partner when

you arrive, you’ve come to the right place. In this guide, we’re going to answer

your question ‘where do

couples go in Singapore?’ and list some of the romantic places in

Singapore to visit.

Visit the Jurong

Lake Gardens

Surround yourself with natural beauty by paying a visit to the Jurong

Lake Gardens. This will make the perfect date day for nature lovers and outdoors

enthusiasts who feel the need to escape the hectic city environment and enjoy a

more relaxed atmosphere. The gardens extend over 90 hectares of impressive,

landscaped lawns and you’ll also find a huge freshwater lake within the

grounds.

Here you can walk hand-in-hand along forest trails and explore and appreciate

the very best of nature with your beau, or perhaps even shut your eyes for a

couple of hours by relaxing in the hammocks next to the pagodas.

A stroll

along the Changi Point Coastal Walk

If you’re asking yourself ‘where can I go for my anniversary in Singapore?’, the Changi

Point Coastal Walk is romantic and unique experience. After a full day

exploring the tourist attractions and being surrounded by noise, traffic, crowds

and concrete buildings, walking hand-in-hand with your lover along the seafront

is the perfect escapism come evening time. The boardwalk spans 2.2KM and has 6

distinct sections for you to explore. You may even spot marine life along the

way – including the likes of starfish and crabs.

The best time to explore the Changi Point Coastal Walk would be just

before dusk. You can catch a glimpse of radiant sunsets at approximately 7.12 pm

– so always aim to arrive earlier so you don’t miss it!

Don’t worry about tripping up in the dark – the pathway is well lit with

twinkling lights that add to the romantic atmosphere. What could be more

romantic than sitting with your loved one and taking in the sunset on the seafront?

Relax on a Singapore

Cruise

A trip to Singapore certainly wouldn’t be complete without a boat ride

along the

Clarke Quay of the Singapore river.  It’s

up to you which type of boat you’d prefer; from the traditional bumboats to modern

mini-cruise boats; in which you can catch a glimpse of some of the city’s most famous

sights, including the Marina Bay Sands, Esplanade Singapore and Asian Civilisation Museum. Boat rides are in operation

both during the daytime and evening, but the latter would be best if you’d

prefer to stay cool instead of being exposed to the intense heat of the sun.

Watch the Marina Bay

Sands lights show

While in Singapore, you simply cannot bypass the opportunity to visit

Marina Bay Sands and its impressive ‘Spectra’ light show. The perfect romantic evening

for couples after dinner, you’re sure to be astounded by the display of water

jets, lasers and fire geysers that fill the night sky with dramatic colours. The

show lasts approximately 13 minutes and the best part – it’s completely free of

charge.

Explore Gardens

by the Bay

Another must for nature lovers, Gardens by the Bay is certainly much

more exciting than any gardens you’re familiar with back home. You’ll first

make your entrance into the Flower Dome, where you can enjoy cooler temperatures

as opposed to the humid outdoor climate.

Here, you’ll find native plants as well as an abundance of tropical flowers

from across the globe. Look upwards, and you’ll spot the towering ‘supertrees’ combined

with spectacular architecture and twinkling lights. If you’re not afraid of

heights, you could finish off the evening with a visit to the on-site restaurant

which sits above one of the tallest ‘trees’ situated within the gardens.

Pay a visit

to the Yueh Hai Ching Temple

This temple located in the central business district is otherwise

known as the ‘love temple’ and has become a hotspot with couples all across the

world. Honeymooners in particular venture here to receive a blessing to start

their married life with luck and good wishes. Inside, you’ll find the moon deity

which according to legend is said to reinforce the bond with loved ones – and in

this case, your significant other. Even if you don’t consider yourself a

religious individual, you’ll certainly appreciate the calm environment of the

temple as a place to unwind and reflect.

Take in the

scenery from Esplanade Roof Garden

Where can I cuddle in

Singapore? Well here’s your answer. This spectacular garden sits at a height overlooking

Marina Bay. Here, you’ll gain first-class panoramic views of the city while

sitting amongst magnificent floral displays and landscaped lawns. There are

plenty of comfortable seating areas so you can snuggle up to your partner and

enjoy an evening away from the crowds.

Walk around

Bukit Batok Town Park

Everyone loves taking a selfie or two while on their travels and the

Bukit Batok Town Park is the perfect place to capture shots of the two of you, amongst

a glorious backdrop of towering rock cliffs and an expansive lake. There is an

abundance of pathways for you to walk along the banks of the lake and enjoy a

picnic or even an hour sunbathing underneath the trees.

This park is extremely popular with photographers who wish to capture

couples shots; so you could consider hiring a professional for the day if you’re

celebrating an engagement or honeymoon and give you lasting memories of your

special trip.

Explore the

beaches of Sentosa

For a relaxing break in Singapore, why not spend a day checking out

the beaches around Sentosa Island? There are three to choose from - Siloso,

Palawan, and Tanjong; all of which cater for different holidaymakers due to

having completely different vibes. Let’s take a look at each in more detail:

Siloso

Perfect for thrill-seekers, the Siloso beach is filled with an array

of activities to enjoy including the likes of zip lining, skimboarding and

kayaking. If you’d prefer to sit back and watch your other half having the time

of their life, you can rent a chair on the sands and enjoy the sunshine.

Come nightfall, Siloso turns into a real party hub in which you can

enjoy bustling bars and restaurants including spots like Mambo Beach Club and

Bikini Bar.

Palawan

If you’re looking for a more casual atmosphere, Palawan is probably

more up your street. Situated just a short drive away is where you’ll find this

laid-back and quieter location, but with a family-friendly nature. On one side

of the beach features playgrounds and parks which is good to know if you happened

to have little ones in tow or wish to experience a little bit of life.

Tanjong

Finally, Tanjong offers the most chilled atmosphere out of the three

beaches and is located in the remote spot of Sentosa. It’s the perfect paradise

you dream about - white sands and a turquoise lagoon for taking a dip, complete

with thatched shelters and palm trees for sheltering from the hot sun.

Visit the National

Gallery

You may not get any pleasure from visiting a museum or gallery alone,

but the National Gallery Singapore would be great to visit while in the area if

you’re looking to share a relaxed, cultural day with your other half. The

benefit of galleries is that they’re calm and quiet and allows you to enjoy

some meaningful conversations between you while inspecting the artefacts. After

checking out the wonderful sculptures and paintings, you can pay a visit to the

rooftop garden to witness panoramic views of the city below.

Cable car

dining experience

How does the idea of eating in the sky sound to you? Well, now you

can do just that with a spot of cable car dining – the ideal activity for

celebrating a special occasion. You’ll be given your own private cabin and

enjoy panoramic views of the city as you indulge in a four-course meal. The

journey starts at Faber Peak and upon arrival, you’ll be served a welcome drink.

Drink champagne

on the Singapore Flyer

If you’re looking for the perfect date night with your other half, nothing

can beat the experience of Singapore Flyer Dining. When booking a capsule on Singapore

Flyer Dining, why not order a bottle of bubbly and toast to your special occasion?

On the journey, the capsule will rotate so you’re able to enjoy 360-degree

views of the city, as well as several other famous locations in the area,

including Marina Bay, Gardens of the Bay and The Central Business District.

You’ll have approximately one hour in your own private capsule which

gives you plenty of time to enjoy the experience and the breath-taking views below.

Enjoy a dining

experience at 1-Altitude

1-Altitude is the highest rooftop bar in the world – so it sure is a

once-in-a-lifetime experience that you cannot overlook while visiting Singapore.

It is home to a combination of three restaurants and bars, so you can take your

pick of where you’d like to dine – or why not try all three?

A day out at Universal Studios

Where should I go for honeymoon in Singapore? Universal Studios is

one of the most popular places to visit. Not only is it perfect for couples on

their honeymoon, but it’s also a dream for many travellers who enjoy movies,

rollercoasters and simply having fun. Spread out over 20 hectares of land, you

can enjoy a whole host of activities. For thrill-seekers, you won’t want to

miss the opportunity to hop onto some of the park’s most popular rides - Battlestar

Galactica: Cyclon, Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure, Transformers the Ride,

Revenge of the Mummy and many others. Release your inner kid and meet some characters

before making a much-needed pit stop at one of the many restaurants in the

park.

Exploring Marine

Park Life aquarium

Marine Park Life is one of the best places to visit in Singapore for

honeymoon couples. It is one of the biggest aquariums in the world and here,

you can get up, close and personal with a whole host of marine life – including

sharks. This experience will make a lasting memory of your trip to Singapore – so

don’t forget to take lots of photos while here.

A night at the

Ritz-Carlton Hotel

If you’re not stuck to a tight budget, a stay at the Ritz-Carlton

hotel should certainly be on your to-do list if you’re celebrating a special

occasion with your partner. You can lounge around and cuddle with your loved

one while taking in the overlooking views of Marina Bay. The rooms are

decorated with works of some of the worlds’ most famous artists, including the

likes of Dale Chihuly, Andy Warhol and Frank Stella. This experience is sure to

add a touch of luxury to your holiday – even if it’s just for one night of your

trip.

Spotting dolphins

at St John's Island

For animal lovers, a visit to St Johns Island and the chance to swim

with dolphins is certainly a must on the to-do list. Just a stone’s throw from

the city (approximately 15 minutes by car) and you’ll be able to enjoy the

laid-back, quiet atmosphere of this mini island. Take a picnic for a relaxed

day on the sands and listen to the crashing waves – if you’re lucky, you may

spot a dolphin or two on the horizon.

If you’re hoping to plan a trip to Singapore for a special occasion with

your loved one, we hope this guide has given you some useful information and suggestions

to help you plan your itinerary. Despite the small scale of the island, there

truly is so much to see and do with your significant other that you’re truly

spoiled for choice. Planning ahead will allow you to make your holiday to Singapore

the very best romantic getaway possible.
