Where To Go This Weekend

Where To Go and What To Do In Singapore This Weekend?

This is a long weekend for Singapore with Deepavali falling on Friday as our public holiday. Do you have any plans this weekend? If not, consider some of the activities that I have recommended for you and your family to participate. To get into the mood for the Festival of Light (Deepavali), come down to the Marina and see the various art-works with lights! Alternatively, visit the Indian pavilion at the food safari to taste exotic food from India and also other parts of the world.

Hopefully you will like the many other recommendations and have fun!

The BEST part is ALL activities are FREE!
