I'm Singaporean Chinese and I'm so impressed that you actually pronounced Thian Hock Keng correctly! It can be loosely translated into Heavenly Blessing Palace in English.
In 2007, I´ve been to Singapore on work. It´s a very glamorous city! It deserves a visit!
I'm singaporean, is not most expensive city in the world, as normal wages, still can travel oversea, lucky to stay in singapore very blessing...🙏❤
I lived and worked there as an expat for 5 years around 2000,, great city, great access to other locations, great food, friendly people,, secure, I learned to not miss the USA at times,, the many golf trips into Thailand, Bintan and other places was easy and enjoyable.. there’s a lot to like
That's because the most expensive things are subsidised for the locals (housing,health, food and public transport). International dollar PPP per capita is 131,426 for Singapore, 84,469 for Switzerland , 75,180 for the US, 55,862 for the UK and 42,067 for Portugal . Tourists can enjoy the fairly priced hawker foods and transport options.
Ahh, Sunday in Singapore - maid's day off. Did you see groups of them everywhere around around town? Doing little dances, having picnics, showing each other photos from back home, and taking group selfies for futures memories. Such a fun part of Singapore life.
We saw many picnic groups in the park but didn't realize it was them :)
@@JumpingPlaces : They are the Fiipina overseas workers, Sunday is their day off they all meet up and have a chat non stop and something to eat .There is over 100,000 overseas filipina maids in Singapore.
Singapore extremely modern mixed with beautiful greenery! Awesomeness. 😊
The 2nd temple you went to (Thian Hock Keng) was used by sailors who landed in Singapore to thank the gods for proving them a safe journey. The temple was by the beach. So the land opposite the temple main door are all reclaimed land.
Lies again? Most Expensive Footballer HDB
Been to Singapore 3x. Western style city. Went to Sentosa Island for the Universal Studios. I like the botanical gardens and the man made waterfall. Its a small country worth visiting.
I used to live in Singapore haha, moved to London 2 years ago. it's a great city - u'll love it. Make sure to check out Merlin park, Singapore botanic gardens and the Singapore zoo
Thanks for the tips :)
@20:47 - Singapore is literally on the equator. It gets really hot when sunny ( + the humidity ). You will notice the covered walk ways all over Singapore ( for the rain too of course).
The modern biz building with the plants in the middle is actually a small sky park which u can visit for free. There r 2 separate levels and have some pretty cool views from the top.
Absolutely fascinating and spectacular, always wanted to visit Singapore and it's beautiful culture/traditions ❤️❤️🙏
Happy New Year, Chris and Carol!
Very neat botanical garden and the river cruise reminded a bit of Chicago as well. I really like the mix of old and modern architecture. Happy New Year travels!!!
My missus used to live in SG so I travelled there frequently for a short period. Cheers for another great vid guys!
Excellent video of a tour of the city state, showing the interesting and beautiful attractions there.
So glad to see your parents, thank you for shooting beautiful video in Singapore! If you like Singapore, you can also visit Taiwan in the future!
Its area is 50.3 times that of Singapore. The east, west, north, and south each have their own characteristics. It is a country that integrates Eastern and Western cultures!
Taiwan can be said to be the condensation of the whole of Asia, and it has also been rated as the World Food Museum by the Wall Street Journal!
In addition to being famous for its culture and food, it is also the hometown of the international director Ang Lee and the country where Bubble tea was invented. 👍🤩🙏🙌
Hopefully we can go there soon :D Sounds great!
@@JumpingPlaces Welcome, There are many temples more than one hundred years old, modern buildings, and beautiful nature in Taiwan,
I believe you will not be disappointed!
I’m traveling in Singapore right now. This video is so helpful for me !
So glad to see your parents in the vlog Chris! Singapore is on my bucket list of places to travel to for sure! Loving the mix of old and new architecture! Looking forward to the next video.❤
Next one coming soon, thanks for watching :D
The thing to really remark upon apart from the temples itself is that next to Thian Hock Keng is a Durga temple to the right and a Islam mosque to the left, all within 100m of each other. A church is on the next street on Amoy Street. Same for the Buddha Tooth Relic temple where Sri Mariamman temple is about 400m away. Religious tolerance is practiced in an observable form.
Omg you are in town!! Enjoy!!!
Singapore is beautiful. I am a plant lover so thanks for videoing the conservatory and all the tropical plants. Mexican food looked so good. High rises are quite amazing how tall they are.
I live in Singapore❤ and I’m proud to say my country is known for CHANGI AIRPORT.
Congrats,
@@Drankitkumarnehra ty!
Great images!
My first time in Singapore was in 2008 during a 12 hours transit from a flight from Surabaya, Indonesia to Amsterdam.
Changi Airport provided a free bus tour around town and I was able to take it twice and get to know the modern Singapore.
Back then Marina Bay was still under construction.
Oh my, I am getting old!
Managed to go back in 2012 and stay at SEACARE hotel near Clark Quay for a short holiday and three in 2018, when I stayed in FURAMA also near Clark Quay and later near Bugis Street.
In 2019 I visited KL for a week and immediately I recognized it as being an affordable Singapore.
Currently I live in HCMC and hope can go back soon!
Are you from Indonesia Surabaya
Apa kabar
@@Drankitkumarnehra bukan.
Saya alsi orang Brazil, tapi pindah ke Surabaya Pebruari tahun 2008, dan tinggal di sana sampai Juni 2015 dan saya pinda ke Jakarta.
@@cristianlamb5156 Ever thought of working for Vale? They have a large office in Singapore. Many Brazilians work here
@@endi4654 actually no and I wasnt aware of many Brazilians working there for Vale.
My field is Footwear and been working for few major "Global Players" here in SEA.
Love the video. Greetings rom the Caribbean ( Puerto Rico ).
Hope you got a chance to visit the extraordinary orchid garden! Enjoyed your video….how fab to have your parents with you!
Great commentary and video.
You could go up capital spring for a free roof top view of the city. I think the building facade was in your video at around 8:13
My favorite part of your vlog is whenever you order food hahaha love all the travel blogs but I'm such a foodie too so I love it when you guys eat as well
Great to see your parents there with you. Awesome. Have a wonderful time. I hope they love it!
Quite the change from all the beaches! Those blue flowers might be Delphiniums? Thank you for sharing your travels.
love this vid. coming there in 2 months
Fabulous video, enjoyed every minute of it! Well done
Hi,
Great videos you guys making.
Can you please let me know what video editing software you are using for UA-cam videos?
Thanks.
I enjoy your videos so much. Great editing. Please keep them coming. Happy New Year!! 😊
Lovely couple,Congratulations to you guys to heads Singapore this week after you guys moves from the Philippines in 2023.Happy New Year to you guys in great joy 2023❤❤❤
I stayed in a hotel near Clark Quay. It’s not too expensive. Loved the Night Safari and Botanical Gardens. Take the cable car and visit the sea aquarium in Sentosa. 😊
The price for us was probably higher than normal since it was around Christmas time and new years
I hope you tried the hawker food there in SG.
Thank you for visiting Singapore. I wish you guys will enjoy your short stay here. There are many cheaper options here Singapore is the local food at our hawker centres. You can find variety of food you will be able to enjoy. You can also visit the botanical Garden. It's free for all. The Fort canning Park. It's rather raining season now and be prepared to carry an umbrella. Thank you for your vlog. Cheers and Happy New Year !!!
Wow! Wonderful place and tour! Thanks for this upload! 👍❤❤ Greeting from IRAN 🇮🇷
Miss you guys seeing u in the beach... support coming from Philippines
Glad you went up the trees and to know they are sustainable. I think that hotel is a big eyesore (a project gone bad lol) compared to the rest of the modern buildings.
Hello Chris and Carol now in Singapore. The great traveler with our parent. Thank you for sharing your wonderful beautiful journey through Singapore.
So nice to watch. I loved the street art and the temples. Lovely to see your parents aswell. Happy New Year btw 🤩💞⛩
Happy New Year, y'all. What did you guys do for Xmas and New Year? Wishing y'all a healthy and adventurous 2023.
My hubby and l are beyond excited for South America trip. We will be hiking the Patagonia in Chile and Argentina. Then we will travel to Brazil for carnival.
We just spent it with Chris parents in Thailand, the Thailand vids will be soon after one more Singapore video :D That's awesome that you are going to south America, we really want to do the Chile side of Patagonia too!
@@JumpingPlaces , awesome! I love Thailand. Can't wait to see your Thailand videos. 😊😊😊😊
did you change the camera/equipment? the quality of this video is amazing!!!!! Singapore is interesting, I have been there 24 years ago with a group of friends!!!! and I remember well the botanical garden, chinatown and Orchad road where I stayed at the mandarin oriental....wow long time ago, really! I have to come back once again with my family ♥
Hiya. Chris and Carol. So lovely your parents joined you both.
Love all street art. And metal sculptures. Always fascinates me the buildings. Especially the famous hotel. Your food looked delicious. The flower dome. I have never seen that. Thank you for the tour around. Lovely video. You two are the best tour guides. Have a wonderful week.
Nice to see your parents Chris in your vlog . You really look like your father and tall also.
Yes he is taller than chris even lol

What I love about Singapore are the trees in the middle of the road and not too much traffic cos most people are underground in their very efficient train system. 😉
Also their vehicles are only operational for 10 yrs, thereafter it must be dispose of to lessen carbon footprint. Their public transportation are very efficient, indeed.
@@elmerfrejoles98 you can renew after 10years but you would have to pay for the Certification of Entitlement again.
Lovely!😊
Thanks for Showing Singapore
Our pleasure!
Traveling SE Asia all winter. Was in Singapore about 4 weeks ago a loved it. I also stayed in Chinatown but I am solo so smaller place. Enjoy
Welcome to Singapore, Chris and Carol!
Great vlog.when were you there.we are there tomorrow.😀
Always exciting to see you guys in a new destination! Awesome so see your parents met up with you. Cheers my friends! All the best,,see you on the next one
Wow nice place enjoy
Thanks for bringing us with you to these places that we may never get to visit.😀😀
Wow another adventure....enjoy..
We will! Cheers
I am living in Singapore. Such a nice video! Hope you and your family have a great time in Singapore 😃
Amazing 😮
Chris, tell you parents we all said hello and Happy New Year!
You guys were wherr I live in club street.
I think you were living next to where construction is going on in club street?
hawkers w good foods at a very good economic prices...if u hv time explore.
But will never forget this safe little lion city thats Roar in your heart ❤...
I thought Singapore was nice in the cleanliness and greenery aspect for such a densely populated city/country but I found it overrated and VERY overpriced. I absolutely didn't hate it, I just didn't love it. I did however LOVE LOVE LOVE the food!!! Absolutely amazing!!! I think there are many things we as Americans could take lessons on from Singapore though, like discipline, cleanliness, all the greenery, ect... I'd go back there again, but mostly for the food. I also wouldn't spend more than a day or two there, max... Enjoy you time and safe travels!
Accommodation is expensive but almost every other thing can be done on a budget. If you love the food, I suggest going out of the city center, there are many hawker centers located near MRT stations which is where the locals dine at. A day or 2 is definitely barely scratching on the surface.
@Pat my wife worked and lived there for 6 or 7 years and is a tight ass so she knew some great cheap places to eat...haha Also some of the best places to show me. I was there twice for 7-9 days and just didn't love it there. I grew up in a very rural area and just not into the big city life. Don't get me wrong, for a city it was pretty amazing. All of the little wet market foods and hawker stalls were amazing, especially for the cost. The botanical gardens were beautiful. Chinatown is pretty cool (probably my favorite area). The supertree garden, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore flier and some other places I don't remember are pretty cool too. I didn't hate it by any means, I just didn't love it. SOOOOOOOOO many better places in S.E. Asia for me and I haven't seen that many. 2 or 3 days at a time in Singapore is more than enough for me. Fortunately it's a pretty big and amazing world we live in so we can all find what appeals to each of us. Take care and safe travels in wherever life takes you...🛩🌎👍
HAVE A GREAT NEW YEAR ................................
How does it compare to KL ? Which do you like?
I would love to go to Singapore someday it looks amazing 🆒👍😎
It is worth it :)
@@JumpingPlaces 👍🆒
I follow you when your in the Philippines.
happy new year 2023 🌲👍😍🇵🇭
Happy new year!
Love Singapore. Don't forget to check out Arab street. Check out Blu Jaz
The most beautiful country in Asia, certainly for me ... is definitely Malaysia. You should go there sometime. Better than Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia and the rest!
the statue by the river was the merlion. half lion and half mermaid .
Love Singapore , I was there 3 time ❤❤❤❤
It's nice sometimes to travel with your parents. I was living in Israel and my parents came out for a visit and rented a car for a week and we drove from north to south. They also came out to visit my ex and me and my daughter in Switzerland once. Has a lot of fun with them.
FYI! U pay😊 for location in SG not the facilities or size! Club Street is an expensive location!
Did you ride Train from China town to the Merlion ?
you shld go cloud forest... way way better than the flower dome
The building at 8:15 has a nice open air garden and observation deck at the top with a view of Marina Bay! It can be accessed by the public for free in the morning.
U made it to sg at last)))
Well come to Singapore bro nice city nice food should visit jln sultan not far from your stay china town.
Thanks for the tip :)
Love Singapore! Will be there in Apr. My last trip was in 2018. Contrary to an earlier comment I read, there 's actually so much to do and different things to see in Singapore, despite its size. One does not need to travel miles to get from one attraction to another...so convenient, unlike Ontario, where I'm from and live. It may be more expensive than other Asian cities, but it's certainly not more expansive than Canada or any other developed countries. In fact, hotel/motel rares are cheaper than in Canada, and hawker food is so cheap....you can't get cooked food at those prices in Canada, not even in our food courts. Also, Singapore is truly international... a true mix of East and West, with English widely spoken, being one of their official languages and taught as a first language. As such, I find it easy for me to move around and stay in Singapore...signs aplenty in English, which I don't find in other Asian cities. The language barrier has always been a deterrence for me to travel widely in Asia, but not so in Singapore.
Thanks for showing SG is very clean place, hardly saw any rats or trash along the streets. Their roadways has no traffic congestion unlike here in Manila. Their gov is smart is solving traffic problems. But then again cost of living seems to be more expensive there, but if you guys could afford it why not. Enjoy your stay there and thanks again for showing it to us. Btw, is there a beach resort in there?
The beach resorts I think are mainly confined to sentosa, and sentosa cove.
Nice. May I ask question? How did you find an apartment? Are you renting ?
Singapore River used to be so dirty and smell badly.. there is a hawker center there where they dump all rubbish into the river.. took 10 yrs to clean up... the Waterboat house, is there the Merlion used to be..
Btw.. it is called Mer-Lion... mermaid+Lion..
Hello my friend 🙋🤝🙋🇨🇭🇨🇭
Very beautiful video big like 💝💝💝
Welcome to Singapore….
Have fun exploring~
Try Singapore zoo & night Safari…
Sentosa is a good place too.
Not forgetting our famous changi airport & jewel~
Welcome to Singapore 😊
Cheers!
The male lead in the video reminded me of the actor from The Boys
