Photos in Singapore

Here are some photos of my visit to Singapore. I didn't take many photos because I was too busy shopping or enjoying the company of my travel mate.

Photo of Hotel Ibis, 170 Bencoolen Street, Singapore. Rate is SGD138++ excluding breakfast. As an AccorAdvantage Plus member, I paid only SG90++. Hotel is in a good and quiet location. The room I stayed in was basic but very comfortable. There's free Wifi service. Nearby the hotel are Sim Lim Square the IT central of Singapore, Albert Mall, Bugis Junction and Queen Street bus terminal for buses to/from Malaysia. Nearest Singapore MRT station is Bugis.

Bugis Junction. In the older days, I suppose you'd see streetwalkers of the third kind instead of shoppers in this area. Redeveloped in 1995, Bugis Junction today is a shopping mall. Bugis MRT is accessible from this mall.

Departure area of Budget Terminal Singapore. Important services: Airline check-in counters, GST refund (especially after all the shopping) and left luggage (costs about SGD5 per day per 10 KG bag). You can get free internet WiFi account from the left luggage/lost and found counter too.

Departure lounge in the budget terminal. There are duty free shops selling cosmetics, gifts, alcohols, cigarettes, electronics and so on. Selection is not as wide as the other three terminals in Changi but sufficient. There are also food outlets in the lounge, including Secret Recipe. 7-Eleven has an outlet here too.
