1. Changi International Airport
ChangiSingapore’s slick airport hasn’t just won multiple awards for World’s Best Airport—it’s also been named one of the world’s most outstanding retail real-estate projects. And it's no wonder: The sprawling four-terminal complex houses hundreds of stores and restaurants, many of which can’t be found elsewhere. If shopping and eating—the country’s most popular pastimes—aren’t your thing, there are plenty of other draws, like the Butterfly Garden, a Canopy Park (where you can walk across bouncy nets suspended across the top floor), and the Rain Vortex, a seven-story (and the world's tallest) indoor waterfall.

2. Coney Island Park
ChangiA lesser-visited gem of a park in the northeast of Singapore, uninhabited Coney Island (aka Pulau Serangoon) boasts hidden white-sand beaches and plenty of mangrove-draped trails through coastal forests, casuarina woodlands, and grasslands filled with flora and fauna. Start at Punggol Point Park, where boats and a bridge go to Coney Island Park. There are five main beach areas, and the 2.5-km-long Coney Island Park Connector to explore by bicycle or walking. GoCycling at Punggol Jetty rents bikes for S$10 an hour. On selected Saturday mornings in the months of June, November, and December, National Parks volunteers conduct two-hour guided walks. Amenities: toilets. Best for: solitude; swimming; walking; cycling.

3. Changi Beach Park
ChangiOne of Singapore's oldest and quietest coastal parks, Changi Beach is a two-mile stretch of sand dotted with coconut trees and public barbecue pits. Although its tranquility belies its dark history—this was one of the main sites of the Sook Ching massacre during the Japanese Occupation—today the area is a popular spot for couples as well as fishing and photography enthusiasts. Amenities: food and drink; toilets. Best for: solitude; swimming; walking.

4. Changi Chapel Museum
ChangiSprawling, squat, sinister-looking Changi Prison was built in the 1930s by the British and was used by the Japanese in World War II to intern some 70,000 POWs, who endured terrible hardships here. The museum, a replica of one of 14 chapels where 85,000 Allied POWs and civilians gained the faith and courage to overcome the degradation and deprivation inflicted upon them by the Japanese, reopened in 2021 displaying drawings, sketches, and photographs by POWs depicting their wartime experiences. Organized tours take you through the old British barracks areas to the former RAF camp, still part of an active military installation. Here, in Block 151—a prisoners' hospital during the war—you'll see the simple but striking murals painted by a British POW, bombardier Stanley Warren. The last admission is at 4:30 pm, and with little public parking, it's recommended that you take public transportation.

5. Changi Sree Ramar Temple
ChangiThis breezy, tranquil Hindu temple by the sea is the only one of its kind in Southeast Asia devoted to the Hindu god Rama. Interestingly, it also serves as the spiritual center for many non-Hindus living in Eastern Singapore, because it houses Buddha and Goddess of Mercy idols.

6. Loyang Tua Pek Kong Temple
ChangiTens of thousands of devotees visit this sprawling multi-religious temple every month to pay their respects to the Buddhist, Taoist, and Hindu deities and worship in the Muslim shrine here. Elaborately carved patterns on the ceilings demarcate the different areas in the temple, which is especially popular with those seeking wealth and good fortune. During the Nine Emperor Gods Festival in the ninth lunar month (from late October to early November), the temple takes on a carnival atmosphere as some 100,000 Taoist pilgrims descend on it, bringing exotic foods, flowers, joss sticks, and candles as offerings for their prayers.

The park is also home to a 15-acre mangrove forest, which you can explore via several walking trails, a wheelchair-accessible boardwalk, and a three-story birdwatching tower. Amenities: food and drink; parking; toilets. Best for: solitude; swimming; walking.
