Singapore Shopping

Looking for a souvenir, that elusive bargain, the latest styles, the newest electronic gizmos? Shopping in Singapore is always an adventure, the shopping experience forever changing to keep the interest of shoppers a little bit on the edge and curious.
The glitzy malls of Orchard Road are always on the ‘must see / visit / do’ list of visitors and locals alike. The ideal place for shopaholics to spend the day going in and out of malls right down the road and visiting spas, restaurants or whatever takes their fancy and reveling in their ‘finds’. The huge choices on offer whether it be apparel, accessories, home ware or electronic gadgets are the very latest and are tantalizingly displayed. The carnival like atmosphere in this shopping district with new malls showcasing the latest fads adds to the total shopping experience which is exhilarating and always exciting.
An area offering a somewhat different experience is Marina Bay with shops, restaurants and entertainment options located on the waterfront with endless retail choices and lifestyle venues now made more famous by one of the largest entertainment and shopping venues of its kind, the Marina Bay Sands.
Chinatown and Little India are where one comes across small shops with knick knacks, trinkets, paintings, jewellery, brassware, rich fabrics and the atmosphere of a bygone era that is heightened at festival times.
Clarke Quay is a charming riverside lifestyle venue with restaurants, wine bars, entertainment spots and retail outlets emanating a colourful festive atmosphere. It’s a lovely place to take it easy particularly in the evenings.
If anyone has any energy left over for more shopping, they can head to the Harbour Front Precinct where more than 350 retail and other outlets await. If that is not enough they can always take the cable car out to Sentosa Island where perhaps even more shopping can be accomplished.
For that final bit of shopping there are the duty free shops at the airport, several hundred of them stocking a range of diverse products where visitors are bound to find solutions to their last minute pressing shopping dilemmas.
With a choice of one, two and three bedroom well designed contemporary furnished apartments the Somerset Bencoolen Singapore offers corporate and leisure visitors a comfortable place to base themselves in while engaged in business or in the many leisure and entertainment activities of the city.
