#14 Spend an afternoon at the Botanic Gardens

Still one of the top parks in Singapore for hitting with a picnic mat, the Botanic Gardens has plenty of meadows, picturesque foliage and public sculptures to stumble upon. If you want to admire beautiful blooms, make your way to the National Orchid Garden, which houses over 1,000 species and 2,000 hybrids. It’s nice to plonk yourself down by Symphony Lake, too – especially when it’s staging a free classical musical concert.
