Clarke Quay and Boat QuayClarke Quay and Boat Quay have throngs of young working professionals and expatriates dancing to the music and drinking each night. Hot nights tend to be on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Go to these places on those days and you'll be very happy to see a huge turnout of revelers and happening people.Pick up a beer, drink some red wine, dance the night away to hip-hop, rock or soul music - you take your pick. Clarke Quay and Boat Quay are the places to check out. The area around Mohammad Sultan (near River Valley Road) used to be a happening place as well - but recently, the revelers have shifted to Clarke Quay and Boat Quay right in the centre of the business district. So don't make the mistake of thinking Mohammad Sultan is still 'the place to go'. It's not. Holland VillageWhere else, where else? If you want a quieter, more laid-back place to drink with your friends and family, then you can check out Holland Village. Tucked away in the western side of Singapore, this place is a haven for expatriates and their friends. Go there for great food, ranging from Chinese to Mediterranean and have a drink or two!Other Places to Go At NightIf you want to look for other activities to do at night, then do consider doing some shopping, dining or visiting the Night Safari. No idea what I mean? Let's check out these activities one by one.
Night shopping is possible in Singapore. You can visit the 24 hour Mustafa Centre to buy all sorts of textiles or Indian goods. Another place to go would be the flea market near Parco Bugis Junction. That flea market has a night scene that's hard to find elsewhere in the city. If you feel like a zoo trip, you can go to the zoo - at night. The Singapore Zoo organizes an award-winning Night Safari, where you're taken to the different parts of the zoo and allowed to view nocturnal animals in their full glory. Very interesting and entertaining for the whole family, especially kids. Another thing to do - night dining. Surprisingly, some of the best places to dine are not at the fancy restaurants - moreover, they tend to close early. You can visit the neighborhood coffee shops to buy all sorts of local food - Chinese, Malay, Indian and Western all the way into the late night. Oh, oh here's another suggestion - watch a late night movie. Most cinema operators in Singapore offer movie screenings running into the early morning - a great way to pass the time if you're not sure that you want to sleep at home.
ConclusionNight life is alive and well in Singapore. While most would say it is not as lively as say Hong Kong at night - most locals would beg to differ. In recent years, a lot has been done to spice up Singaporean night life. If you're here on a holiday, be sure to block out one night or so to visit the different night spots in the city.Well, that's all for this article. If you're interested in Singapore night life, do be sure to check out the above recommendations the next time you have a night here in the city. Good luck and see ya!
