Char Dham Yatra- Badrinath Dham-
Heavenly Place
Shri Badrinath Main Temple
Char Dham Yatra is not just pilgrimage, Char Dham Yatra is not just visiting any other temple or holy place, Char Dham Yatra is actually an experience, a Heavenly experience, where you will be in proximity to nature, proximity to God and proximity to mother earth.
 |
| On the Way to Shri Badrivishal.. |
When we think about Char Dham
Yatra, the first thing that strikes our mind is that it might be very difficult
to reach there, and the roads might not be in a perfect condition, and some
might even think that only our elders should go to such holy places.
But let me tell you all these
perceptions are just a myth. It is not at all difficult to reach there, road
condition is perfectly fine and moreover anyone can go there and they will be
definitely mesmerized with the heavenly charm of the places they will visit in
the Char Dham Yatra.
 |
| Nature at its best |
Today we are going to discuss
with you one of the Dham out of the Char Dham which include-
Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and
Yamnotri.
Char Dham Yatra- Badrinath Dham:
Out of the Char Dhams, the
Badrinath Dham is one of the important holy place according to Hindu Mythology.
Badrinath Dham belongs to Lord Vishnu- who is said to be the creator of
Universe.
Location of Badrinath Dham
Badrinath Dham is located in the
Chamoli district of Uttarakhand, the main temple is located between two
mountains which are named as Nar and Narayan, this is because as per Hindu
Mythology Lord Vishnu is said to be the incarnation of sages Nar and Narayan.
The river Alakhnanda (which later merge with Bhagirathi to form the mighty Ganga river), flows with full force near the
temple, which is beautiful to see.
Very near to the main temple is a
natural hot- sulphur water kund, known as tapt kund and it is said to be very
sacred to take a dip in this kund before entering the main temple.
Some interesting stories about Badrinath temple
There are many stories about Char
Dham Yatra especially Badrinath Dham, one story about this temple also reveals
that the image of Lord Vishnu at the Badrinath Temple was first found near the
Tapt kund and later on the than King of Uttarakhand established Lord Vishnu’s
Image at the main Badrinath Temple.\
One another very famous story in
Uttarakhand region is that, Lord Vishnu is holding a small needle in his hand
and this small needle has separated both the mountains- Nar and Narayan, and
this needle is getting small with every passing day, and after some hundreds of
years, this needle will get broken and finally fall from the hands of Lord
Badrinarayan and that day the gap between Nar and Narayan parvat will disappear
and the way to reach Badrinath Dham will get closed. After that people will
devote their prayers to Shri Adi- Badrinath Dham, which is located near
Joshimath, which is the winter resting place of Lord Badrinarayan.
We don’t know how true these
stories are but going to such divine place and hearing such stories from locals
is a very amazing experience.

Perfect time to visit Badrinath Temple or any of the Char Dhams
Char Dham Yatra generally begins
in the month of May, close to Akshay Tritiya and gets over in October close to
Vijaydashmi.
Badrinath Yatra starts when Lord Badrinarayan is bought to the main temple after resting in Joshimath, which is the winter home of Lord Vishnu, a very grand procession brings Lord to the main temple generally in the month of May close to Akshay Tritiya, and temple gets closed on the day of Vijaydashmi, when winter starts and Lord is taken to Joshimath.
Generally Yamunotri and Gangotri
are the first to get opened for Yatra and Badrinath Dham is the last one to get
closed for Yatra, this is because as per Hindu Mythology the Char Dham Yatra
should start in clockwise direction starting from Yamunotri, proceeding to
Gangotri, than Kedarnath Dham and finally concluding at Badrinath Dham.
Best time to visit Badrinath
temple or any of the Char Dhams is in the month of May till mid- June, and than
in months of September-October. July- August generally is a rainy season with
lots of rainfall, snowfall and landslides. So, its better to visit before or
after the rainy season.
How to reach Badrinath Dham??
The best means to reach Badrinath
Dham is by road, the road condition is excellent except from 1 or 2 patches
after Joshimath, the view is very scenic and every village is beautiful. You
can take a bus from Rishikesh or Haridwar or can book your own cab.
Generally, if you come from
Haridwar or Rishikesh, the tour operators will provide you a cab with a 3 days
package for Badrinath. The cost will depend upon the vehicle you will choose
and it will range between 10K-15K.
If you have less time you can
also opt for a helicopter ride which you have to prebook and the cost will be
definitely on a higher side.
But we would definitely suggest
you a road trip, since the views are breathtaking and the road condition is
excellent, thanks to BRO.
Places nearby Badrinath Dham
There are many places near and on
the way of Badrinath Dham, which makes the journey very beautiful and perfect
for people of any age, religion, opinions and interests.
The journey generally starts from
Rishikesh which is an amazing place for pilgrims, adventure lovers and
different niche groups. Proceeding forward you will find various beautiful
places especially hill stations on the way likes Srinagar, Pauri, Landsdowne,
Devprayag, Rudraprayag, Joshimath and Auli. All these places are very scenic and
worth a visit. 2kms ahead of Badrinath Dham you will find Mana Village, which
is the last village of India and this villages is famous for its numerous
evidences of Mahabharta period.
It is said that Pandavas came here before there
final journey for heaven, besides this the place is actually very beautiful and
should not be missed if you come to Badrinath.
Finally concluding:
We have shared everything about
Badrinath Dham, one of the Char Dhams. We are very hopeful that the information
shared will be useful to you while planning your Char Dham Yatra especially
yatra to Badrinath Dham.
This year the Badrinath Dham
temple has been opened on 10th May and Char Dham Yatra is going on. You have
lots of time till October to plan a trip to the Heavenly Char Dham Yatra.

Goa, the place of fun, the place
of thrill, the place of adventure, the place of masti, the place of culture,
the place of religion, and the place of everything in the World. What more can
we say about Goa, there is nothing in the World that Goa does not offer.
 |
| Beautiful to Ride along Panjim-The Capital of Goa |
From the beautiful sandy beaches,
to the amazing party places, from the noisy waterfalls to the soothing river
side, from water sports to the famous pub-crawls, from wonderful Churches to
the most amazing temples, Goa has it all.
On one hand it has freedom and
the hip-vibe, on the other hand it has its unique culture and religious
practices. Goa offers something for everyone. This place never disappoints
anyone.
In this blog we will discuss in
detail about how to reach Goa and what all activities you can do there in a
limited time and budget.
How to reach Goa??
 |
| Sunrise on the Beach |
Now the million dollar question
is how to reach this beautiful place? Goa is very well connected by roads,
water and air which means you can come by bus or car, or you can come enjoying
your cruise or you can opt for the fastest means of reaching Goa by flights.
By Road: You can rent a car or take your own 4-wheeler, or take a bus from Mumbai which will take you to Goa in 11hrs 30min approx. Goa is 553 kms from Mumbai and the road is very scenic, Especially if you visit during the rainy season.
By Train: Train is actually the cheapest option to reach Goa from
Mumbai. Again the view is very scenic as you pass through the hills and
valleys. If you are on the budget trip than you should definitely opt for a
train journey.
By Flights: It is the most fastest and convenient way to reach Goa,
however it could slightly hit your pocket if you are on a budget trip. The
nearest airport is Dabolim Airport, which is a 65 min drive away from the city
centre.
Adventure sports & other activities to do:
Goa is a heaven for adventure
sports specially water-sports, don’t even dare to miss these activities, when
in Goa. The all time favorites are:
· Para-sailing:
The most done water sports activity in Goa is Para-sailing, when you are in
the air hanging with a parachute and being dragged through a motor-boat, ohh
what a view it is when you see enormous water beneath you and beautiful beaches
from such a great height. There are 2 variants of Para-sailing:- One is “With Dip” and other is “Without Dip”. We strongly recommend to
go for – Parasailing with Dip, try it, you will definitely enjoy.
· Jet-Ski
ride: Another popular water sport is to ride on the water, splashing on the
waves on a jet-ski. The thrill you feel on a jet-ski ride is unbeatable. If you
are a beginner, then don’t worry at all, it is completely safe as it is mostly
driven by the experts and you just have to sit and enjoy the ride.
Banana-Boat
ride: It is also a very thrilling adventure activity which could be done by
a group of 4-5 people. You have to hold your banana boat really tight as it
will be dragged by a very high speed motor- boat. It goes to such a speed that
you could even fall in the mid of the sea, but don’t worry you are in safe
hands as there is a guard in the boat who will pull you back again.
·
Bumper-Boat
ride: It is somewhat like banana boat ride; the only difference is that it
could be done by 2 people at a time.
·
Sail-Boat
ride: It is the latest addition in the water activities at Goa, these are
actually sail boats without any motor, which will take you for a tour of 2Kms in
the mid-sea, their movement depend on the direction of winds. It is actually a
great experience, you just have to sit on the net bed of boat or you can even
lie-down, you fill feel as if you are yourself a fish swimming in this huge
sea. So, if in Goa, give it a try.
·
Flyboarding:
Who doesn’t want to fly?? Everyone in this planet has an inner desire to
fly and this latest addition in water-sports is catering this inner desire of
ours. In this adventure sport water is pushed beneath pair of boots worn by
you, by this water pressure the rider flies in the air upto a certain height an
when pressure is released, again drops in the water. It looks a bit scary and
we didn’t had the guts to try it. But
please do let us know, I anyone of you goes there and try this sport and let us
know your experience. We are eagerly looking forward for your personal
experiences, so that we could gather courage to try it out someday.
Other Activities:
Apart of
adventure sports there are numerous other activities to do in Goa, some of them
are as follows:
· Dolphin
Spotting: Spotting the manoeuvres of the amazing creature Dolphin in its
natural habitat is really an awesome experience. There are many boat companies
that will take you for a ride in the mid-sea to spot there amazing creatures of
God. You will find them in the Deltin area which is very near to Fort Aguada.
· Clubbing:
Goa is a hub of clubs, pubs and discos. Many of the top- notch clubs of
India are found here. So, if you are a party person, then don’t miss to visit
Titos Lane, which is the hub of nightlife in Goa. Tito’s and Mambo’s are said
to be the best to enjoy Goan nightlife. Good news for all the ladies, your
entry is totally free there, however men have to pay the entry tickets. You
will get the best discos, DJs, alcohol and food there.
·
Gambling:
Goa has some of the best casinos on its waters. Ya thats right the casinos
are huge and beautiful ships floating on the water. You will be charmed by the
beauty of these huge ships, especially when they light-up at night. These are
mostly loca
ted on Mandovi river-side in the Panjim area. It has all the major
casino brands like Casino Royale, Big-Daddy casino, Casino Pride, Deltin Royale
Casino, etc. 
·
Fishing: If you like fishing, than you are at the right
place, there are many areas where you can take your fishing device and sit with
a beautiful view and wait for the fish to get caught. In our opinion the best
place will be Dona Paula.
·
Snorkling:
This is another great activity you can do here. Watching the sea creatures
in their natural habitat is really a next level experience. So, you can
definitely opt for this activity when in Goa.
Places to Visit:
There are
numerous places to visit in Goa, some of the handpicked places are as follows:
·
Beaches: Goa
has some of the best beaches of the country. Many people come to Goa just to
see these beautiful sandy beaches. There are approx 22 beaches in Goa, and most
of them are inter-connected with each other. If you visit beaches at North Goa
they are a bit crowded but are best for adventure sports and nightlife. But if
you want peace and privacy than you have to visit beaches at South Goa. In our
opinion, one should visit some important beaches of both North and South Goa,
if you don’t have the time to visit all the 22 beaches. Remember one thing,
every beach is different, the sand is different, the landscape is different,
the waves are different, and overall experience is different at each beach, so
don’t be in a notion that every beach will be the same, so why visit many
beaches. Some of our favourites are Baga beach(Adventure and party), Calangute
beach (Adventure and party), Candolim beach (highly recommended for beautiful
waves), Sinquerim Beach (Amazing views), Anjuna Beach(Amazing views), Arambol Beach(Peaceful),
Miramar Beach(Mumbai Style Chowpati area), Dona Paula(Must visit, beautiful and
scenic), Colva Beach(white sandy beautiful beach). These should not be missed
if you don’t have the time to visit all the beaches.
·
Churches: Goa is the home to the most beautiful
churches. Actually Goan architecture is greatly influenced by Portugese
architecture, which is also reflected in its Churches. You will find the most
beautiful churches in Old Goa, Velha and Panjim area. The Asia’s largest and
UNESCO world heritage Church- Basilica of Bom Jesus is located in the beautiful
Old Goa, another beautiful Church, which you might have spotted is some movies
as well is Our Lady of Immaculate Conception, located in Panjim. Other
important Churches in Goa are Church of St. Francis of Assisi (Velha, Goa), Se
Cathedral (Velha, Goa), St. Alex Church (Calangute, Goa), and Church of St.
Cajetan (Velha, Goa). |
| Basilica of Bom Jesus |
·
Temples: Goa
has a good population of Hindu worshippers and some of the most beautiful
temples are located here. Their unique worshipping practices and great
architectural designs will leave you amazed and spell- bound. Some of the
important and most visited temples of Goa are Shri Mangesh Devasthan (Ponda,
Goa), Shantadurga Temple (Ponda, Goa), Mahalaxmi Temple (Ponda, Goa), Shri
Nagueshi Temple (Ponda, Goa) and Navdurga Temple (Borim, Goa).
·
Forts:
There are two important forts which should not be missed during your Goa visit,
these are Fort Aguada and Fort Chapora. Both the forts give you stunning views
and glimpses of the beautiful Goa.
Fort Chapora is also a very important
fort to visit, it is located across Chapora river in Bardez, Goa. It should be
visited in the morning to witness the beautiful sunrise and also to hike a bit
avoiding the scorching heat during the day. The fort is located at such a
prominent place that commands views in all directions, which was strategically
built to cater the defence requirements of the than army. But today it is a
prominent tourist spot and gives stunning and scenic views of the place.
· Waterfalls:
Yes Goa offers one of the longest waterfalls of the country i.e. Dudhsagar
Falls which is located in the Bhagwan Mahaveer Sanctuary and Mollen National
Park, over the Mandovi river. It actually marks the border between Karnataka
and Goa. These are very beautiful and scenic especially during the rainy
season.
This was all we have to tell you about Goa
trip, if you have a limited time and budget, which is from our personal
experience, for any other queries kindly visit us at https://www.travelntweet.com/ or email us at chasingdreamzz1131@gmail.com

Weekend- Escape in Summers-Auli
Hello Friends, in these summers
if you are planning for a short holiday or a weekend escape, and are a bit
confused about your perfect destination, than we may help you a bit to make
your choice.
In our view, the choice of your
place should be done while considering certain factors like your journey
period, your travel budget and whether you like crowd or peace.
In summers if you are looking for
a short weekend escape especially from Delhi-NCR region or Uttar Pradesh or
Uttrakhand, and you have a limited budget and love to be in peace and in lap of
nature, than in our view AULI is the perfect place to be.
Auli- This small and beautiful hill station is located in the laps
of mighty Himalayas, giving a picture perfect view of many Himalayan peaks like
Nanda Devi, Trishul parbat, Mana Parbat, Dunagiri & Karnet peaks of
Himalayas. On a day when there is a clear sky the view of Himalayan peaks from
Auli is unbeatable.
Auli is not only beautiful, but
also peaceful and still untouched holiday destination, which makes it a perfect
destination for honeymoon couples as well. Besides the many reasons to visit
Auli, one unique reason is the cable car ride from Joshimath to Auli, yes there
is a cable car ride connecting Auli and Joshimath, which is so picturesque,
that could not be described in words. So, don’t miss the cable car ride to
Auli, the 25 min ride which is said to be the longest cable car ride in India.
How to reach AULI:
By Air: The nearest airport is
Dehradun airport, from where you can take a bus or taxi to Auli.
By Train: The nearest railway
station is Haridwar, from where you can continue your onward journey to Auli by
bus or taxis
By Road: In our view take a road
trip from Delhi- NCR, and reach Joshimath, via Haridwar & Dehradun. You
will love the being in the lap of nature. There are two routes to follow while
coming by road:
1. On one route is via Rishikesh and Rudraprayag,
which is very beautiful and important from the aspect of pilgrimage. That is
why most of the people prefer to go by this route. Due to this reason, this
route is mostly crowded, witnessing frequent traffic jams.
2.
The
other route is via places like Landsdowne, Shrinagar and Pauri. This hilly road
has beautiful scenic views, with small hill stations on-route, which you can
also visit. This route is quite un-explored, less crowded and beautiful.
We went there by second route to
avoid long traffic jams and came back by taking the first route mentioned
above, so as to experience them both. In our view, if you have less time and
want to reach Auli at the earliest to enjoy more, than you should definitely
take the second route.
Most of the taxi or bus drivers
prefer the first route, since its short in terms of kilometres travelled, but if
you are taking your own vehicle than you should definitely opt for the second
route, which is shorter in terms of hours travelled.
After reaching Joshimath you can
either drive till the place, or take a cable car ride or a chair car ride. We
would definitely suggest you to go for a cable car ride which is more scenic
and drops you at a decent height at Auli. For some more adventure you can opt a
chair car ride, but the chair car station is at a lower height than the cable
car.
Places and activities at Auli
Auli is a very beautiful place
and you can experience the most amazing and scenic views.
Nature is at its best there.
The most amazing experience is to
watch the great peaks of Himalayas, the view is so clear and mesmerizing from
here, that it is beyond imagination.
You can enjoy near the beautiful
artificial lake, which gets completely freezed during the winters and in
summers it adds to the beauty of the place.
You can walk for hours and hours
feeling the cool breeze from Himalayas and the immensely peaceful vibe of the
place. Again we would quote that the view is breath-taking.
In the winters, the beauty of
Auli goes to next level when we could witness the Skiing tournament when the
whole mountain is covered with snow. The place seems like mountain covered with
white jewels.
Besides, Auli is also the base
for many hiking trails, here sky is the limit explore as much as you can. You
can also indulge in activities like horse riding and roaming in an ATV machine.
Yes, the place offers it all.
The most important thing is the fresh vibe and peace that rejuvenates
you to the fullest.
Thus, in our view, in summers
AULI is the best place to get refreshed and an amazing weekend escape.

Hello friends, today we are going
to share our views about travelling in a cruise ship. When this word “CRUISE”
strikes our mind the first thing that we imagine is luxury, leisure, fun and
lots of enjoyment.
A CRUISE SHIP is actually a small
city floating on water. Many of you must be planning to go to a luxury cruise
for your upcoming holidays. Today we are going to discuss everything about
cruise including bookings, budget, facilities, entertainment and activities you
can do at the cruise.
Bookings:
There are a number of cruiselines
for which bookings can be done depending on your budget, choices and port of
embarking. If you are looking for an Asian cruise, the major cruises that you
can opt for are Royal Caribbean, Dream Cruises, Costa Cruises, etc. Ships of
Royal Caribbean are said to be the best out of the fleet, however prices may be
slightly on the higher side as compared to Dream cruises.
Bookings could be done online by
many websites available, or you can directly go to the websites of Cruiselines,
where you could also get attractive discounts while bookings. Its better to
book early so as to avail the early bird offers available on websites. If you
go in the summers mostly in the month of March and April you can get excellent
offers, since it is an off- season for them.
There are options of cabin like
inside cabin, oceanview cabin and balcony cabin which depends upon your budget.
We would definitely suggest you to shed some more pennies from your pocket and opt
for a balcony cabin, the experience of cruise will be at next level if you opt
for a balcony cabin. The sight of ocean in the night and the morning sunrise
view from your room will be a lifetime experience.
The key of smart and budget travel is book early, pay less and enjoy
more.
Budget:
Budget of travel by a cruise ship
depends upon many factors like the cruiseline you have opted, days of cruising,
cabin of your choice and port of embarking.
While making the decision of
travel by the cruise, first choice that you have to make is to which cruise to
opt for. If you could spend a bit more for cruise than we would surely
recommend the Royal Caribbean fleet, but if you want a decent cruise experience
in a relatively affordable price than Dream cruise is the best option
Second decision to be taken is
the number of days to cruise, more the number of days, more will be your
expense. In our view, one should opt for a 3 nights and 4 days cruise, which we
will be sufficient enough to explore the ship and enjoy all the facilities at
the fullest, this will also be cost effective for you. Besides, if you want to
travel in less time and less money than 1 night or 2 night cruises are also
available. However, if you are travelling with a good cruise budget than you
can opt for 5-7 nights cruise and visit different places along with cruising.
Facilities, entertainment and activities:
We bet you will go mad, when you
look around what all facilities, entertainment and activities the cruise ship
offers. It will be really a dream come true for many, as it was for us also.
The cruise don’t gives you a single chance to complain or to get bored. You
would be awestruck to see the never ending bucket of activities that the cruise
offers.
Those who like to have fun in
water or want to enjoy adventure activities, there is a buffet of activities
you could indulge in. You could enjoy and relax in swimming pool or can go for
water slides, which is a great fun for kids as well as adults. Adventure
junkies can go for zip-lining activity or rock climbing, which is also a fun
activity. Those who are interested in sports can also play golf or table
tennis, for which exclusive areas are available.
There is a wide range of indoor
activities also available which includes chess, bowling, gaming zone, etc.
Those who want to party hard, Zouk night club is the best option.
You can even learn dancing or practice yoga near the main pool. One can also enjoy the World class entertainment shows at the Zodiac theatre, but don’t miss to book in
advance.
If you are a foodie, than you
will be in seventh heaven to see what variety the cruise offers you. Food at
dream cruises is really like a dream.
You can enjoy cuisines from every part of
the World. Lido is the best complimentary restaurant offering a huge variety of
cuisines all over the World, you can even find quite a number of vegetarian
options and even there is a counter for Jain vegetarian if you avoid onion and
garlic in your meal. Thus, cruise takes care of everyone’s taste buds. Apart
from Lido and other complimentary restaurants, there are many other restaurants
and food joints offering variety of food items 24*7.
Thus, in our view if you want to
enjoy every aspect of luxury, every aspect of adventure and thrills and every aspect
of fun in life than surely try cruising in your life. You will get an
experience of a lifetime which you will never forget.
ENJOY YOUR LIFE ENJOY CRUISING........

So, day 5 should be planned in a way so as to experience the local markets with
lots of shopping and visiting places that give you beautiful glimpses of the
place, so that along with your baggage you carry a huge bag full of great
memories of Singapore.
The places that we suggest for day 5 are:
· Singapore

· Little India
· Buggies Street

· Clarke Quay
Yes, there is a bucket of activities
lined-up for day 5.
Its like “Shop till you drop” & “Explore till your feet stop”.
Its like “Shop till you drop” & “Explore till your feet stop”.
We start the day with Singapore Flyer, the
morning charm of Singapore with 360 degree panoramic views from Flyer will keep
you mesmerized and awestruck. The jaw-dropping sights of the place when you
will reach at the top will definitely create a lasting impact in your mind. On
one side you will see the wonderful Marina Bay Sands and Gardens By the Bay, on
the other hand you will be charmed with the view of the water and numerous
small and large boats and vessels at the dock. If you see straight downwards to
your back you will find the Formula 1 race track, which would be a first time
watch for many. These experiences will fill your soul and mind with huge
memories of Singapore.
To
experience the rich culture and the local vibe you must visit the various
neighborhoods at Singapore which includes Arab Street, China Town and Little
India. Arab
street is a very artistic and cool place with a hip-vibe, seems to be a heaven
for photographers and specifically selfie-lovers, you can shop, roam around and even try a “SELFIE-COFFEE”, which will be a unique experience for you.
China town is a mirror of rich Chinese
culture of the place. Three things that you will definitely buy from there are:
1. Souveniers, 2. Souveniers 3. More Souveniers. You will experience small
Chinese shops, temples and authentic Chinese restaurants. You will also smell
the unique fleshy fruit Durian in the market. If you are visiting in the months
of January & February, you will see the place decorated with the Chinese
symbols, decorative items and lights, which will be a very pleasant experience.
Visiting Littile India is like visiting a
mini- India, you would find Indian temples, small and beautiful Indian homes
and various Indian food joints. If you are a vegetarian or an Indian food-
lover you will definitely come here to try out the Indian cuisine.
Besides, as we have mentioned in our
earlier blogs that Singapore is a shopping heaven. So, don’t even try to miss
the crazy shopping experience at Buggies street and Orchard road.
On one hand, Buggies Street is a great destination
for budget shopping. Its a great thing that prices are quite cheap, but the
quality of goods is very nice. Singapore and Singaporeans never compromise with
quality. So, it could be a great shopping experience for budget shoppers. All
the female shoppers will go mad to see the variety of apparels, handbags,
cosmetics and other accessories that this place offers. You can also buy some
gifts for your friends and family.
On
the other hand, Orchard Road offers high-end shopping experience to all the
shoppo-holics. It has a vibrant mall culture with all major World–wide brands,
marking their presence at this place. You can spend hours and hours here,
hopping from one shopping mall to the other. Don’t miss the architectural
wonder- “Ion Mall”. If you have a good shopping budget, than you will be
un-stoppable there. You can even enjoy window- shopping here if your pocket say
a no-no for luxury shopping. An evening walk at the Orchard road is also a
great catch, you will be mesmerized with the dazzling lit-up malls and
performances of street artists.
By
the evening you would be tired like hell, and will be in a mood to have a
relaxed time along with enjoying the beauty of Singapore. So, we suggest you to
head straight to Clarke Quay or Boat Quay, which is the prime location to enjoy
night-life at Singapore and have an evening boat cruise. In the evening when
Singapore is all lit-up, the best way to enjoy is by taking a boat cruise, it
is a joy ride which will also give you a full guided tour, giving information
about many important places here. The beauty of Singapore appears to be at next-level
when you see it enjoying a boat ride. Apart from a relaxed evening, it will
give you memories of a lifetime. After enjoying your river-cruise, you can go
to any of the restaurants, set aside of the river front and enjoy dinner with a
great view, or you can see various street performances taking place and enjoy
the night-life of Singapore.
This
is all we had to share about 5 Days Itinerary for Singapore. In our view, this
is the best international destination for any kind of traveller:- solo, female,
family, friends or newly married couples.
We really hope that whatever we
shared on the basis of our personal experiences when we visited Singapore, will
be useful for you whenever you will plan a trip to this beautiful country.

say that you should go there on weekdays rather than on weekend and holidays.
On weekends, the park would be crowded and you would not be able to enjoy all

Firstly, we want to say that we
are super-excited to share our experience about the Day 3 itinerary of
Singapore, coz this was one of the most fun part of our trip. We enjoyed, we
laughed, we were mesmerized, we felt the adventure thrills, all at one place,
which is Sentosa Island.
Various sections at Sentosa
Island:
The Sentosa island is divided in
various areas and every area has its unique set of activities. Various such
sections are as follows:
·
Beach
Station
·
Siloso
Beach & Siloso Point
·
Palwan
Beach & Kidz city
·
Resorts
World Sentosa
·
Merlion
Plaza
·
Imbiah
Lookout
Out of the various attractions
that Sentosa offers we have divided the major attractions in accordance with
the various interests of people:
- Adventure lovers- Skyline and luge, I-fly Singapore, AJ Hackett Sentosa, Megabounce- Mega adventure park, Sentosa 4D-Adventureland.
- Kids Favourites- Universal Studios, Kidzzania.
- Nature & Animal lovers- Butterfly park & Insect kingdom, Dolphin Island & S.E.A. Aquarium.
- Beach & Water activity Lovers- Siloso & Palwan Beach, Ola beach club, Adventure cove waterpark.
- Museum Lovers- Madam Tussauds Museum, Images of Singapore, The Maritime Experiential Museum, Trick Eye Museum
These were the major attractions
and activities out of the huge bucket of activities Sentosa Island offers.
However since most of the tourists and visitors have time boundation and all
these major activities to be covered in one single day is next to impossible.
So, understanding that, we have
further described our personal favourites out of each of these groups so as to
make your choice of activities somewhat easier. So, here are our personal favourites
from each group, which we are going to describe in detail:
· SKYLINE
& LUGE- This was actually our most favourite activity at Sentosa, we
would highly recommend you to go for this activity. This could be a nice
adventure and fun activity for people of any age group. In simple terms it is a
go-cart sort of activity where you have to drive a go-cart shaped structure
without wheels down-the-hill. It has various trails to go for, out of which one
of the important trails is the jungle trail, which should not be missed. This
amazing gravity-thrill ride will give you a unique experience which you have
not experienced elsewhere.
· UNIVERSAL
STUDIOS- The most famous attraction is Universal Studios. It is definitely
a kids dreamland and wonderland. Even the adults would be transported to their
childhood in a time- machine. All our words will fall short to describe this
stunning wonderland. However, we will discuss everything about Universal
Studios in our next blog which will be our day 4 of our Singapore Itinerary.
·
S.E.A.
AQUARIUM- We were awestruck and astonished and amazed and surprised and
mesmerized to see the beautiful World of fishes and other marine animals all at
one place. It is actually home to more than 100,000 marine animals of 1000
species which comprise of sharks, sting rays, star fishes, Goliath groupers and
other magnificent marine animals. You
would be in some other World when you see this amazing water creature’s
paradise. The huge fish tank which is actually the World’s largest oceanic
habitat consisting of more than forty thousand fishes and sea creatures, is
wonderful to watch for hours and hours in a theatre like place. This would be
really a very informative and wonderful experience for you to be in proximity
to these marine creatures.
· SILOSO
BEACH- This is a very beautiful beach with white sand and crystal clear
water, any beach lover will have a great time at this place. You can also visit
Fort Siloso where you will find collection of World War-II memorabilia, so
those who are interested in history can also check-out the place.
· MADAM
TUSSAUDS MUSEUM- If you want to have your “Kodak moment” with your
favourite celebrity, than this is definitely the place to be. You could pose
with your favourite leader or sports person or actor or any celebrity. You can
take a selfie at the selfie zone, you could even try to dance with the virtual
dancers in the background. You will be top of the World to hold the iconic IIFA
trophy at the IIFA Awards Zone. Who could miss to be at the magazine cover page
with Mr. Shahrukh khan (heartthrob of millions). If you want all these
experiences, this is the perfect place to be.
WINGS OF TIME:
Apart from all
these major attractions a show that could not be missed, when at Sentosa Island
is the “WINGS OF TIME” show. This is
a multi-sensory presentation of water displays, laser and fire effects,
complemented by riveting music. It is an award-winning night show that is set
near the open sea. So, this is definitely a must watch at Sentosa Island.
These were all
the major activities at Sentosa Island that could be visited in a day. We hope
that we have shared all our true experiences with you and will be helpful for
you to plan a day’s trip to Sentosa island.
Next blog will be very exciting as we are going to share our experience
at the Universal Studios, so please read our next blog of Day 4, which will be
a great fun for us to write and for you to read.
