This
journey tells about my group consisting of 12 persons. the journey to singapore
is not for some kind of travelling or backpacker but it is for fulfilment of
our study tour program it is started from the day when we departed for on
november 13 morning (05:05 am) we departed from uin campus to husein
sastranegara airport using two rent cars. Yes, going in the early morning is
the wisest thing we did to avoid queuing
while doing check in of which the daparture is at 07.20 am. However, it would
be better if we checked in via online service.
We
arrived at singapore Changi airport at 10.11 am things we should do here are
passport checking by airport officials,and find our baggage. We exited from terminal 3 and then found the
sky train to dropp us to terminal 2. Using this sky train is free of charge. In
terminal 2, we looked for mrt (mass rapid transport)—a train to dropp us to our
hostel and destinations. We only need to buy the singapore tourist pass: $20
for one day-service, $26 two day-services and $30 for three day-services. We
chose $30 because we will have stayed for 3 days in singapore.
As our hostel is
located at arab street, from changi airport we departed for bugis for about 10
minutes using mrt. from bugis we prepare to kiwi backpacker ho(s)tel, the place
where we stayed. Awesome thing that we
got here is our hostel is close to sultan mosque of which it is one of preferred
tourism objects.
Near from kiwi hostel,
we can easily find easternmoslem restaurants, such as kampong glam café.
After we took a rest
for one hour in hostel, the first destination is sentosa merlion park. from
bugis station, we took mrt to
habourfront station.
In habourfront we
looked for vivo city mall at the third floor for buying the ticket sentosa
express station. ticket priceis $4 for commuting (going back and forth).there
are many interesting places there to take some pictures, such as universal,
lollipop, marlion park
From sentosa we went to
marina bay at night. to go there, we needed to take mrt to raffles place
station from habourfront station.in this marina bay, we can see the vie of
marina bay at night.
Having enjoyed the
marina bay—a great view of night, we we went back to bugis and arrived at
hostel around 11.00 pm.
Beautiful morning with
beautiful place in singapore, we started our second day journey at 11a.m but in
singapore at 11a.m is still quiete. after havinga breakfast we started our journey from bugis
station to raffles place especially marlion park, monument national and china town. however, we changed our
destination to asian civilitation museum instead of monument national due to
insufficient time.
From bugis to raffles
place, we only spend time for 10 minutes with mrt. then we walk for 15 minutes
to “ merlion park” . what a wonderful place it is. the icon of merlion park isa
white lion standing at top of the sea. there
are so many people there who came from various countries.
After we visited “marlion park” we went to asian civilitation museum.
Having spent time for
more than 1 hour in museum, we continued our trip to china town for shopping
souvenirs from singapore. Good job! more than 3 hours for shopping in china
town. I though might be “we are the real women” yes! from china town, we come
back to bugis and arrived in hostel at 08.00 pm. We then had a dinner at
zam-zam restorant nearby our hoste after
we had dinner, one of group members suggested us to look for another souvenir
in bugis junction. Good idea! we went to bugis junction within 10 minutes by
footin bugis junction, we looked for all
of kindsof souvenir, but seriousely i still did not understand why at 11pm in
singapore the most visited country,the every store are closing. omg! after all,
we cameback to hostel and took a rest, but remember to take a bath for having a
deep sleep.
Last day here in
singapore! not like normally, in this third day we woke up early then had a
breakfast in kampoeng glam—one of the restorants which is located in arab
street.
So, that’s good for us! we departed from the hostel 10 a.m to queens street bus
station by foot. Alhamdulilah the bus
station isnot too far from our hostel. it is about 5 minutes by foot from arab
street to queen street. in the bus station we bought a ticket to johor baru
amounting to $3. this last day was the first day in kualalumpur. to go there,
we had to transit from johor baru to chenai airport.
