Hidden cultures in neighbourhoods, a tiny bookstore and a beautiful island, Singapore has a mixed bag of secret spaces and lesser known activities.
Besides the mentioned hidden gems, Singapore offers a whole lot more. Art can be found everywhere, not just inside art galleries and museums. The popular Clarke Quay and Boat Quay, has “The People of the River” statues along the bank of Singapore river. For those who’d like a good view, Orchard Road’s ION Sky, situated 218 meters above ground offers a different sight of the city’s retail heart. Very few people know that the Dakota Crescent is a little neighbourhood built in the 1950s with thriving kampong culture. And even locals don’t know about Lim Chu Kang Jetty, a quiet spot leading out into the sea in a corner of Singapore and a look out to the neighbouring Malaysia.
