Do not curl up in bed too soon while the night is still young when you are in Singapore. If you have only experienced Singapore during the day, you are only seeing half of the picture. When the sun comes down, Singapore transforms from a business city district into a colorful and hip entertainment hub. There are clubs and pubs scattered along Orchard Road, Clarke Quay and Boat Quay, Mohammed Sultan Road and even at the fringes of the city area. Once you have freshened up from a bath and a quick bite, perhaps it is time to put on those dancing or trekking shoes for a taste of Singapore nightlife. For those who are not fans of clubbing or pubbing, perhaps spending the night sightseeing in the city or taking a trip down to the zoo (you heard me right) and enjoy the company of fellow nocturnal creatures may be more to your taste.

Clubbing and Pubbing

For a city with no natural resources, Singapore depends entirely on its human resources for survival. Little wonder then that Singaporeans lead highly stressful lifestyles and generally look forward to the weekends to unwind and party the night away. You can find a wide variety of pubs, clubs, discos, karaoke bars and nightspots all over the island. For serious party-goers, head down to Clarke Quay and Boat Quay known for their colorful belt of pubs. Situated along the Singapore River, the pubs were originally shop houses or warehouses for traders, and were later given a makeover lending a modern and snappy look while maintaining their old charm.

Sightseeing tours

Hop on the Fun Vee Night Hopper for a trip around Orchard Road, Civic District, Colonial District, Marina Area, Esplanade, the Padang, Chinatown and Riverside. You can hop off at any desired location along the way and hop on back. For a more romantic outing, try the River Cruise Tour that will take you past significant monuments of Singapore whilst basking in the nightly glow of the city lights. If you have tired yourself during the day, perhaps these nightly tours will be more suitable for you since you can relax and drink in the sights and sounds of nightlife in Singapore.

Night Safari

If you have children in tow, perhaps a night trip to the zoo will be most fitting. The Night Safari located beside the Singapore Zoological Gardens is the first wildlife park built for night visits in the world. Enjoy the sights of over a thousand nocturnal creatures of 100 species in their natural habitats. These habitats are adapted to the original surroundings of the creatures carrying varied themes like Himalayan Foothills, Nepalese River Valley, Indian Subcontinent, Equatorial Africa, Indo-Malayan Region, Asian Riverine Forest, South American Pampas and Burmese Hillside. Catch energetic tribal dances, blowpipe demonstrations and fire eating displays as part of an extraordinary Singapore nightlife.

Mustafa Centre

Have you ever wished for a mega store that operates 24 hours a day? Mustafa Centre is the first shopping centre in Singapore that never sleeps. You can drop by after a night of clubbing for a spot of shopping or dine in at its café. The 150,000 square feet shopping area boasts over 75,000 items ranging from electrical appliances, jewelry, food products, books, and literally anything under the sun, with a money changer easily accessible for your convenience.
