Singapore may just be a dot on the map but there’s no shortage of insta-worthy spaces in this tiny country. There are always cute cafes, creative murals or colorful shophouses right around the corner. And every now and then, you’ll discover a new one pop into the neighborhood.

Living in Singapore for five years sure led us to a lot of photogenic spots. So I’m sharing with you 12 of the most instagrammable places I loved. Let me know if you’ve been to the same spot or if you have other places in Singapore you loved too.

#1 Singapore Botanic Gardens

Singapore Botanic Gardens is a huge area filled with different species of trees and flowers. And this lovely vine-adorned arches can be found in the Orchid Garden. Admission is free for Singapore residents.

Address: 1 Cluny Rd, Singapore 259569

So much of you have been asking where are we headed next so here's the news. We're moving to…MIDDLE EARTH! ???? (LOTR fans say Hi ????????) – Both Ge and I haven't been in NZ before so we're definitely in for a treat! We're trading high-rise buildings to high mountains, noisy concrete jungle to calm lakeside views, all-year summer days to four seasons, and dine-in dates to weekend road trips. ???????? – In the meantime, a lot of touristing around Singapore is still going on behind the scenes.???? #expatlife

#2 Marina Bay Sands Infinity Pool

The infinity pool of Marina Bay Sands hotel is one for the bucket list. The views of the gorgeous city skyline and Singapore bay from up here is really impressive, and selfie photos make it look like you’re living on the edge. The downside is only guests of the hotel have access to the pool.

Tip: If you want to stay at MBS Hotel, you can find great deals in Carousell for at least 20% off the advertised price.

Address: 10 Bayfront Avenue, Singapore 018956

Take every chance you get in life, because some things only happen once. ✨ #exploresingapore #sginstagram #visitsingapore

#3 Marina Bay Sands Sky Deck

If you don’t fancy a stay in the hotel, the Sky Deck of Marina Bay Sands offers the same bird’s eye view of the city for S$20.

Address: 10 Bayfront Avenue, Singapore 018956

Being given the opportunity to move to Singapore and live a life I've never even dreamed about is a gift, and not one time in the past five years have I forgotten to be grateful for that. – It wasn't always smooth sailing. There were times when I’d feel less confident about myself, think small and doubt my dreams… time when I even question if it was worth it. But the answer I find within me is always a resounding YES. In my heart I knew, I wouldn't change a thing. – Our five years in Singapore is soon coming to a close. Full of experiences, memories, travels, hardships, smiles, tears and growth. I'm taking it all in. What a satisfying journey it has been. ♥️ #expatlife #honestcaptions #exploresingapore #sginstagram #visitsingapore #dametraveler

#4 Marina Barrage

The view of the city skyline from the Green Roof of Marina Barrage is also pretty stunning. It’s not as grand as the first two mentioned above, but it’s free! Come at sunset and watch the buildings slowly lit up and come to life.

Address: 8 Marina Gardens Drive, Singapore 018951

Gorgeous sunset scene in front of us • THIS and all of Singapore's futuristic scene I'll surely miss. #expatlife #exploresingapore #visitsingapore #sginstagram

#5 Chinatown

Filled with rich and vibrant mood, Chinatown isn’t only for souvenir shopping; it’s also a perfect place to capture some color for your Instagram feed. Don’t miss Pagoda Street for its multicolored lanterns and shophouses.

Address: Pagoda Street, Singapore 059207

We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everywhere. ♥️ — Long weekend has officially started! What adventures will you have? I'll be remembering how some of the best days of my life started and happened here in Singapore, while preparing to close down a chapter so we could start a new one. ???????? #exploresingapore #visitsingapore #sginstagram

#6 Singapore Flyer

Towering 165 meters above the city, Singapore Flyer lets you enjoy unobstructed views from every direction. Day or night, you’ll be able to take in breathtaking sights of Singapore, plus, glimpses of Malaysia and Indonesia.

Address: 30 Raffles Ave, Singapore 039803

The Singapore Flyer, second to the world’s tallest observation wheel, measures 165 meters in height. Like 31 male giraffes stacked on top of one another. ???? #SG50 #FunFacts #igsg

#7 Joo Chiat Road

In this eastern neighborhood, you’ll find a line of old Peranakan shophouses in Singapore. Dating back in history, these were actual homes of rich merchants who showed off their wealth through the elaborate design of their houses.

Address: 287 Joo Chiat Rd, Singapore 427540

Joo Chiat, known for its multicultural heritage, is an area in Singapore where significant #Peranakan and Eurasian populations moved to, alongside Chinese, Malay and Indian communities. #SG50 #FunFacts #igsg

#8 Orchard Road

Orchard Road is the retail and entertainment hub of Singapore where you’ll find the most luxurious and upscale boutiques. The boulevard’s decors change alongside festival seasons, so there’s always something new to delight the eye.

Address: 2 Orchard Turn, Singapore 238801

According to a study measuring the pace of life in cities, people were in the greatest hurry in Singapore. We are the fastest walkers on the planet, walking at an average speed of 60 feet in 10:55 seconds, compared to 12:00 seconds for New Yorkers! Ha! Are you caught up in the frenzy of a busy life? ???? #SG50 #LiveTravelChannel #igsg

#9 MICA Building

Previously known as Old Hill Street Police Station, this huge building stands out from the rest with its rainbow-colored windows.

Address: 140 Hill St, Singapore 179369

MICA Building, home to the Ministry of Information, Communications and the Arts (MICA), a colonial landmark and was the largest government building in Singapore during the 1930s. #SG50 #FunFacts #igsg

#10 Haji Lane

A sanctuary for art and culture lovers, Haji Lane is filled with hip bars and quaint shops that beautify and gives life to the length of the street. It’s usually filled with people who are taking photos of their #OOTD.

Address: Haji Lane, Singapore 189244

In Singapore, fines are very high. Fine for spitting on the ground is $500. Fine for smoking in public places is $500. Throwing litter such as scraps of paper is a fine of $500. The penalty for leaving water in the saucer under the pot while watering the plants is $500 (as water could be habited by mosquitoes). #SG50 #FunFacts #igsg

#11 The HDB Houses

HDB houses in Singapore may be an ordinary pick, but each of these residential blocks outlines uniform architecture and well thought-out landscapes. With creativity, these structures are great for capturing the uptown vibe of Singapore.

Address: This one in particular was from Pasir Ris.

Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can. #afterlight #singapore #reflection #wanderlust #blue #sky #nofilter #photography #travel #happyfeet #singapore_insta

#12 Tiong Bahru

If you love street art and murals, then Tiong Bahru is the place to be. It’s the hip space in downtown Singapore known for its heritage and Art Deco architecture, ideal for some retro snaps.

Address: Seng Poh Road, Singapore 168898

Spotted Mama Goat along the streets of Tiong Bahru ☺️ #visitsingapore #exploresingapore #sginstagram
