Built at a cost of over one billion dollars, the gardens opened June 2012 and have already been billed as an unmissable attraction. The gardens house two conservatories, a Cloud Forest and Flower Dome, which are climate-controlled indoor glasshouses. The Flower Dome replicates the cool-dry climate of the Mediterranean and South Africa, while the Cloud Forest replicates a cool-moist climate found in Tropical Montane regions such as Mount Kinabalu in Sabah and high elevation areas in South America. Within the gardens, you'll find 18 impressive Supertrees (tree-like structures), which are vertical gardens up to 150-feet tall, each performing a multitude of functions. Along with providing a bird’s eye view of the entire gardens, they also collect rainwater, generate solar power and act as vending ducts for the park’s conservatory. After a day spent exploring these incredible monuments to botany, you will be returned to your hotel.

Begin a day full of historical insight as you depart for Kranji War Memorial. Dedicated to the Allied servicemen and women who gave their lives defending Singapore, the memorial’s shape reflects the contributions made to the Allied cause by members of the navy, air force and army. The site’s 12 columns are inscribed with the names of over 24,000 servicemen missing in action while the War Cemetery contains the graves of 4,458 of the fallen. You’ll then head to the Old Ford Factory. This quaint art deco building was the site of the British surrender to the Japanese on 15 February 1942, marking the fall of Singapore during World War II. Memories and reflections of the hardships faced by those who lived through the darkest years of Singapore's modern history have been captured befittingly through a permanent exhibition gallery. After lunch, you’ll hop on to the Singapore cable car to catch a bird’s eye view of Singapore’s city skyline, the harbor and Sentosa itself. Fort Siloso was built in the late 19th century during a time when Singapore was an important trading port for the British, so it was imperative that the island was protected from sea invasion. Today, more than 70 years after the war, Fort Siloso stands as a beloved historical site. The only preserved coastal fort in Singapore. Begin your exploration from the Fort Siloso Skywalk, a treetop trail set 11 storeys above ground. Let yourself be transported back in time through the stories of people who lived during the Japanese Occupation and experience the Allied forces’ counterattack and the end of the war through six interactive zones. Before you leave, share a message of peace on the wall of poppies.

Today you’ll be transported back in time to 1960’s Singapore as you explore nearby Pulau Ubin. This charming island is the second largest off the shore of Singapore, after Sentosa. All cares are left behind once you arrive at this island located off the North Eastern end of Singapore. Known for it’s unique geological make up of granite over five smaller islands, interspersed by low-lying mangroves and tidal rivers, Pulau Ubin is truly a feast for the eyes. It has been a forgotten backyard for many years and finally came onto the radar for redevelopment by the government due to the limited landmass on the Singapore Island. Considered to be one of the last kampongs (villages) in Singapore, the island still retains the rustic beauty and simplicity of a bygone era. You’ll wander along the many trails and see how the local residents live a much simpler life than those in the booming metropolis nearby. With no access to the modern and efficient public utilities on mainland Singapore, the villagers rely on wells for water, generators for electricity and depend on traditional farming and fishing for subsistence. Every so often you will come across rustic-looking houses, be greeted by friendly local villagers and may even stumble upon wildlife such as Malayan water monitors, hornbills or one of the many wild boar. Pulau Ubin is a breath of fresh air and the perfect escape from the city.
