You’ve probably seen tons of pictures of friends or online personalities posing with flowers at Gardens By The Bay, so you’ve got to admit that it’s an iconic place of interest for locals and tourists alike. Some displays run seasonally, such as Floral Fantasy, a floral attraction which showcases lush blooms, a high level of artistry and attractive installations through four garden landscapes, each featuring a different concept. Admission to Floral Fantasy for adults is at $12 for Singapore residents.

Not that big on flowers? The Cloud Forest also makes for an equally good Instagram shot. Tip: Try to catch the golden hour (the hour shortly before sunset) – that’s when the light hits the dome in the right places, softening sharp angles with warm golden hues.

Gardens By The Bay is at 18 Marina Gardens Drive, Singapore 018953, tel: 6420 6848.

Besides the HSBC Rain Vortex, there are tons of photo spots sprawled all over Jewel Changi, from the highest level all the way down to the basement, namely the Shiseido Forest Valley, Bamboo Forest, Canopy Park and Petal Garden, which is filled with lush greenery and blooms.

Also, thanks to Jewel Changi’s glass dome structure, there are plenty of chances to play with light and shadow, which will enhance your photo composition.

It’s pretty hard to miss the ArtScience Museum within the integrated resort of Marina Bay Sands. Resembling an outstretched hand, there are plenty of photo-taking opportunities inside and outside of the museum.

Encapsulating the intersection of art, science, design, media, architecture and technology, the museum has showcased exciting (and aesthetic) exhibitions, such as Floating Utopias and Future World: Where Art Meets Science exhibitions, the epitome of the new trend of “Instagrammable” art. Admission to the latter is at $12.80 for Singapore residents.

Joo Chiat Road is one of the best places to find some of the oldest Peranakan shophouses remaining in Singapore. The pastel-hued structures date back to the mid-1930s when they were the homes of the wealthy merchants who flaunted their wealth by decorating their homes with ornate facades, intricate motifs and ceramic tiles. With so many beautiful, historic buildings side by side, no wonder the road has earned the reputation of being one of the most Instagrammable places in Singapore. Just look at how the candy colours add so much personality to the pictures!

5. The House of Tan Teng Niah

View this post on Instagram

📌 Former house of Tan Teng Niah, Little India Built in 1900, the former house of Tan Teng Niah is the last surviving Chinese villa in Little India. It embodies an often overlooked story of the days when small Chinese industries operated alongside the cattle and rattan businesses at Little India. Tan Teng Niah was a towkay (Chinese businessman of good standing) who owned several sweet-making factories along Serangoon Road that used sugarcane to produce sweets. Behind the house, Tan had a rubber smoke-house for drying rubber which used the by-products of sugarcane as fuel for its furnace. The former house of Tan Teng Niah has eight rooms. The second storey overhangs the first to create a five-foot way (five feet wide covered pedestrian walkway) where there was once an entrance portico. On both sides of the house, there used to be carriage gates leading into a courtyard. The pintu pagar (Malay for “swinging wooden half doors”) is richly carved and the front room of the house is resplendent with wall scrolls. Over the entrance door is a gilded name plate with the calligraphic inscription Siew Song (“elegant pine” or “refined pine” in Mandarin). To the Chinese, pine denotes endurance and expresses their aspirations. Many believe that Tan built the house for his wife and that the inscription referred to her. The house was restored and conserved in the 1980s for commercial use, and the restoration project was awarded the Singapore Institute of Architects Honourable Mention in 1991. source : root.sg #Singapore #exploreSingapore

Overeasy’s retro American diner vibe and tongue-in-cheek charm is Instagram-worthy from the get-go. Envision this: cherry checkered floorboards, old-school diner booth seats, arcade machines and cheeky neon signs peppered around the store.

Want to make yourself look like you’re in a movie set? Grab a seat by the bar. Or snap a picture in front of their many neon signs for that edgy, peppy look. While you’re at it, check out their washroom signs for some mirror selfies while you’re at it. The neon signage in the female restroom says “99 problems but a man ain’t one” – what a big mood.

Overeasy has several outlets. Visit here for more details.
