Enter Singapore and you will feel like the gates of shopping paradise have opened up for you. Too many things to buy and so little time? Here’s a handy shopping guide to refer to.
Electronics: They make it to the top of any shopper’s must-buy list in Singapore. Some tourists even take home large LCD TVs and desktop computers along with them. Peninsula Plaza should be your go-to place for all things gadgets and electronics.
Orchids: The national flower of Singapore, gold-plated orchid (actual orchids plated in 24 Karat real gold) souvenirs are considered a must-takeaway by Singaporeans. These flowers can be bought from Risis stores.
Curios and collectibles: Here’s what you should fill your luggage with on your way back home from Singapore: statues, wall décor, wooden décor, paper kites and parasols, and artwork of every kind that are in abundance here.
Apparel and accessories: The shopping streets of Singapore are your best bet for all things fashion. Orchard Road is the first stop for fashionistas from across the globe to take home branded items at a much cheaper rate. The other places to go to include Bugis Street, The Shoppes and all the malls that are scattered across Singapore’s landscape.
Make the transportation bit easier by booking an express bus to travel to Singapore—faster, cheaper and convenient. Adding to the convenience factor is the fact that you can now try REDBUS to buy tickets as well.
