Hey fellow green warriors, remember our epic tour of Singapore’s green spaces, delicious eco-eats, and chic, sustainable stays in Part 1? Well, strap yourselves in because we’re plunging deeper into the Lion City’s eco-soul!
Hidden Gems for the Eco-Curious:
Paddle Power on the Kallang: Swap city noise for the serene Kallang River, a hidden oasis teeming with greenery. Kayak or join an eco-tour to spot cool birds and learn about the river’s fascinating history. It’s like stepping into a nature documentary, minus the David Attenborough voiceover.
Haw Par Villa’s Whimsical World: Get ready for a trip down a quirky rabbit hole at Haw Par Villa. Picture mythical creatures, stunning gardens, and a healthy dose of Chinese folklore – all built by a wealthy family with a serious case of wanderlust (and probably too much money). Trust me, your Instagram feed will thank you.
From Landfill to Paradise: Ever heard of a landfill transformed into an eco-paradise? Yep, that’s Semakau! Hike through lush trails, spot birds, and even explore a mangrove forest. Proof that even trash can get a second chance, like that embarrassing karaoke night where you sang Bohemian Rhapsody off-key.
Sustainable Shopping Secrets:
The Workshop’s Eco-Chic Finds: Discover locally-made crafts, ethical clothing, and upcycled treasures at The Workshop. Support local artisans, snag unique souvenirs, and embrace slow fashion – all in one charming spot. It’s like a treasure hunt for eco-conscious goodness.
Farm Fresh Goodness: Immerse yourself in the vibrant buzz of Singapore’s farmers’ markets, like the one at Pasir Panjang. Fill your bags with fresh, seasonal produce, support local farmers, and indulge in delicious farm-to-table treats. Imagine a picnic basket overflowing with sunshine and flavor.
Waste-Not, Want-Not Stores: Reduce your footprint by visiting bulk stores like Unpackt and The Source. Refill your containers with everything from spices to cleaning products. Shop guilt-free knowing you’re minimizing waste – kind of like that time you finally decluttered your closet and felt a weight lift off your shoulders.
Green Your Nightlife:
Cocktails with a Conscience: Sip on handcrafted cocktails made with local ingredients and sustainable practices at Alchemist. Enjoy live music in a relaxed setting, knowing your drink choices are eco-friendly. Cheers to feeling good inside and out!
