If you want something cheaper, consider staying in a youth hostel. Otherwise, as long as you avoid the red light district in Geylang, hotels in Singapore are basically safe. *The Geylang area is not considered a red light district as long as you avoid the even-numbered streets from Lorong 2 to Lorong 34. You have to check the address carefully. .
Because of the Youth Olympics, many hotels are now offering discounts. For example, this hotel has: .sg/rates.htm (130sgd)

The itinerary can include:
1) Zoo and Night Zoo - both are recommended. Since we are basically in the same place, we can spend a whole day there. (If you are interested in this kind of thing, it is also recommended to go to Yulang’s Bird Park... They are all attractions in the west of Singapore)
2) The Integrated Resort opened not long ago in Sentosa. There is a newly opened casino where visitors with foreign passports can enter for free. Basically, you can spend a whole day in Sentosa (it is recommended to see the underwater world, it is quite famous), and in the evening you can go shopping at Vivocity (just outside Sentosa). There is a foreign snack store called Candy Empire, where you can buy many sweets that can only be bought in foreign countries. There is a place called Marina Barrage nearby, which is the fifteenth reservoir in Singapore. I heard that the scenery at night is good. . (I just heard about it, I have never been there T_T)
3) Ferris wheel - just because it is the largest in the world. . It seems that it is about to be surpassed by another country. If you are interested, you can take a ride. If you are nearby, you can go to the raffles hotel area to learn about Mr. Raffles’ contribution to Singapore. By the way, you can go to Thian Hock Kung Temple, a temple with a long history in Singapore and the representative Merlion.
4) Botanical Garden - a very beautiful place, you can go and see it if you are interested. Because it is a tropical country, it has a very different style. Admission is free, only guests who want to enter the Orchid Flower Park need to pay an additional fee, but it seems not expensive. .
5) Orchard Road - Just one day may not be enough for those who love shopping. . Well, it depends on you personally. Even if you just take a quick tour, you should be able to spend a day shopping. If you walk from Far East Plaza to Plaza Singapura, you will also pass by the Presidential Palace. But the focus should still be on the main road of Orchard Ion. It's a beautiful and busy street with many cafes, so it's nice to walk around.
6) National Day is August 9th. If you don’t like crowded places, you can try to avoid going to the suntec/marina city area. If you like, you can go there and join in the fun. By the way, there is a very famous fountain in Suntec, which is related to Feng Shui. You can go and see it.
7) Pulau Ubin - you need to take a boat to get there. It is recommended to rent a bicycle and travel around the island. There shouldn't be many tourists, but it just feels like a break from the city.
8) Shuangxi Tribe - There are swamps and muddy areas, and there are many Komodo dragons. . Quite interesting.
9) War Memorials - Lots of them. I can't really categorize this. . The most worth visiting is the Kranji War Cemetery. There is also Fort Siloso in Sentosa, which is a place related to World War II.
10) Malay Village and Little India, two very fresh places. I prefer Little India. Although you may not be used to the stronger taste, I think the impression of Little India is more significant. .
Hmm, not only the place, but the food is also important! Singapore can be considered a city of gourmet food. . It would be better if you can eat spicy food. . .
Things to eat include:
kuay chap - kuey gravy
Fried Kway Teow
Fried Hokkien Mee
Indian pancake
Jiatung Laksa
Bak Kut Teh
chai tao kuay - vegetable cake
Seafood - especially Sambal seafood is especially delicious (but spicy)
There are also many Malay and Indian dishes that you must try when you go to Singapore. . . You can check online for details. There must be many, but I’m not sure whether they suit your taste. . .
Yeah, that’s it. In fact, there are really a lot of things to do in Singapore. If you get tired of playing, you can go directly to Johor in Malaysia, but the security there may not be as good as Singapore's. Be careful with everything. . .
In addition, the sun in Singapore is very hot, much like the weather in Yunnan, so you need to wear more sunscreen. . Singapore should still have rainy weather in August. . The rain comes and goes quickly, but you still have to take the trouble to remember to bring an umbrella.
Well, that’s it, right? Have a great time!
Well, I personally think it would be safer to book a room first and then go there. . Because it is the National Day period, the Youth Olympic Games, and the F1 event are about to start, anyway, I think there will be a lot of visitors to Singapore during the time you go, so it will be safer to book a room!
