Tanglin Mall is still our favourite (the Foam, Foam and more Foam!)

Changi Airport‘s T3 slide is always popular in Dec ! Read our review to find out why Bikini Bottom is so happening !

– From airport to trains, Downtown line MRT will be holding a open house this Sat from 1000 to 1800. Commuters at the new stations (Bugis, Downtown, Telok Ayer and Chinatown) will enjoy free train rides. We recommend LTA gallery for kids too.

2 Degree Ice Art is cold ! It runs from 20Nov for a 6 month exhibition.
Ice is not melting because the whole area is -15 degrees Celsius !
