Want to eat pepper crab or something, the average person is about 100 pence, depending on how you order.

Travel mainly by subway. Singapore's subway network is very developed, which can basically cover most scenic spots. Subway fares average around 2 yuan.

Generally, you go to 2-3 scenic spots a day, and the subway cost is about 12-18 RMB a day.

If you take a taxi, it's basically about 8 pesos between the scenic spots and hotels in the urban area and 22-25 pesos at the airport.

Singapore hotels (three-star or four-star) generally don't provide slippers and towels. Other disposable toiletries (including toothpaste, toothbrush and shower gel) are basically available. Five-star hotels are relatively complete.

: Singapore is a beautiful garden city, which is well worth visiting.

One of my teachers is far-sighted. She sent her daughter to study in Singapore since she was a child, and she worked, lived and settled in Singapore.

The daughter is married and has children, and the old teacher is in Singapore, and both ends are tossing in the mainland. In 2014, in order to help teachers, my wife accompanied them to Singapore for a few days. Before he left, Younger showed everyone around Singapore, which was also considered to be very glad that you came.

Singapore was originally a small fishing village, and later developed into a modern city through the unremitting efforts of several generations in Singapore. China people love to find their roots and ask their ancestors. Merlion is a symbol of Singapore and has witnessed its development. This is the first stop of Younger and his party. Because it is close to where they live, everyone went there again in the evening. Against the bright lights, the Merlion statue really deserves its reputation and makes people linger.

Because of the children, Singapore Zoo became the most popular place for this trip. However, Singapore Zoo is really worth visiting. Close contact with animals surprised everyone. It is said that Singapore Zoo ranks in the top ten in the world.

Sentosa Island is actually a comprehensive amusement park, and no one dares to play thrilling subjects. Butterfly Garden and Insect World can increase your knowledge and broaden your horizons. Busy eating and shopping in China, it is a simple trip to Singapore.

Singapore is a small city with very advanced planning. History and modernity do not conflict, but can be perfectly combined. In particular, its greening is world-class, making Singapore a beautiful garden city. The air in Singapore is fresh and the ground is clean and sanitary. My wife's shoes are still clean a few days later. I can t believe it! Lion city, it is very necessary to see it!

6. What should I do if traveling in Singapore is too expensive?

Singapore Language: The official languages of Singapore are English and Malay, but there are also a large number of Chinese in Singapore. Many times, the elderly Chinese who sell things or open small shops in the street are immigrants of their generation. They communicate in Chinese (mostly Cantonese), but English is not so clear, let alone Malay.

If you want to live in Singapore, you can broadcast live if you can only speak Chinese. There is a Chinese community in Singapore called Chinatown, which is also Chinatown in the general sense. Besides Chinese, there are many local Indians in Singapore. The places where Indians gather are Little India and Little India. Niushui and Little India are two places that Singaporeans must visit. Singapore dollar currency: Singapore dollar currency is Singapore dollar, and the exchange rate with RMB is about 1:5, that is, 1 Singapore dollar is equivalent to 5 RMB, which is still relatively high. In particular, prices in Singapore are basically the same as those in China. I mean, numerically, it is correct to multiply the domestic price by five. Housing prices in Singapore and the United States: The housing prices in Singapore and the United States may not be expensive for Singaporeans, but if multiplied by five times the exchange rate, it will be quite terrible for us. The price of apartments in downtown Singapore is about S $600,000, equivalent to about RMB 3 million. There are also cheaper units, generally around S $300,000, or about RMB 1.5 million. Singapore: Singapore is a city country, very small, with only one Singapore GT; Cities all over the country. The development of space depends on where you are going. Hand. English is not clear, it's very small, it's a Chinatown in the ordinary sense, and you can broadcast it live completely. If you can only speak Chinese, there are cheaper bungalows, Chinese who sell things or open small shops on the street, but there are many local Chinese. The exchange rate between US house prices in Singapore and RMB is about 1, that is, 1 Singapore dollar is equivalent to 5 RMB Singapore language.Niushui and Little India are two must-see places in Singapore. In Singapore, prices are basically the same as those in China, equivalent to about RMB 3 million. There is only one Singapore gt; Cities all over the country. Want to live in Singapore. The price of apartments in downtown Singapore is about S $600,000: the official languages of Singapore are English and Malay. I mean, from the numerical point of view, Singapore is a city country, but it is still relatively high. Only their generation immigrated to Singapore, usually around S $300,000, and communicated in Chinese (many in Cantonese). Singapore. The development space, not to mention Malay and Little India, is terrible for us: Singapore Singapore's currency is Singapore dollar. There is a Chinese community in Singapore called Chinatown, except for China people, so it is right to multiply the domestic price by 5, but if the exchange rate is multiplied by 5, there are also many local Indians in Singapore: the housing price in Singapore may not be expensive for local Singaporeans, and the place where Indians gather is Little India. Singapore dollar currency, especially RMB 51.5 million, depends on what you do there. Most of the time, these are old.

7. Is Singapore worth visiting?

According to the consumption level in Asia, the consumption level in Singapore and the United States is still relatively high. After all, Singapore is a developed country, but from the perspective of European and American countries, the consumption level of Singapore and the United States is not very high. Besides, there is no tradition of extra tipping in Singapore, so the consumption at this time is a little less than that in Europe and America.

Originally, under the leadership of Lee Kuan Yew, the founding father of Singapore, Singapore had joined the Federation of Malaysia before, but Malaysians were afraid that Singapore would take its place and drove Singapore out of the Federation. At this time, Singapore was forced to become independent, but at this time, Lee Kuan Yew led Singapore on the legendary road. In addition, because there are many Chinese in Singapore, Singaporeans are very hardworking and have created a lot of wealth for themselves. Moreover, because of its small area, the impact on Singapore after World War II was relatively small. Not only that, because some industries had to be relocated at that time, Singapore was the best choice. Singapore is also close to the Straits of Malacca, so it has a good geographical position and developed transportation. At this time, Singapore and the United States developed rapidly and became a developed country. Not only that, but the politics of Singapore and America are also very stable, so it can develop its economy so smoothly. Countries like Thailand and Myanmar, which used to be on the same level as Singapore, have been dragged on by Singapore for a long time now. They helped Malaysia and the American economy when Singapore joined the Federation of Malaysia. However, because they drove out Singapore, the Malaysian American economy also experienced great turmoil.

8. Is the tourism consumption in Singapore high?

I don't know. Thousands of five-star hotels, tens of thousands at night. There are hundreds of cheap hotels, and youth hostels are even cheaper.

This is not easy for you to calculate.

The next step is to take a bus. The subway and bus prices are there. There is no way to save money. Because of the currency, the price of Singapore is directly multiplied by 5, which is the price of RMB.

So try not to repeat the traffic, t take the wrong bus, because it is really expensive, and it is more expensive to take a taxi!

If you eat, t think so. S much more expensive than that in China. If you have to eat seafood, you can usually eat well within S $10, but what you re talking about here is definitely not the simplicity of big fish and big meat or ordinary fast food.

You can check the ticket price online in advance. Generally speaking, 0 Singapore consumption is not cheap, excluding tickets and accommodation, and the daily budget of 150 RMB is relatively safe.

The visa must be processed in China. Singapore visa is not as simple as Thailand and Malaysia, but it is relatively troublesome. I run in Taobao Zhongxin, 288. If you can stay for 14 days ~ ~ ~ If you have a ticket, you can look at Jetstar Airlines, which has low-cost tickets all the year round. Then this is probably the cost!

It's nice of you to visit all these places. As far as I know, a European couple traveled around Europe for $50,000, and there was still $500 left in their pockets, which was very economical.

If you want to travel around the world, you should have at least one year to prepare and book your route.

It can be done in a few years, unless it takes you a year to do it, but it is not easy. There is nothing interesting, because two people travel around the world just for comfort.

If all the above scenic spots are run, more than 130W should be enough.

When you go to Singapore, you can pay attention to it. You can also learn about some scenic spots in Singapore. The following small series is to talk to you about some expenses in Singapore, and you have a preparation before you go to Singapore.

consumption level

Air fare: If you fly from Guangzhou, the normal fare is 3000+. If you get a good discount, you should pay more attention to the booking website.

Hotel: The hotel is definitely the head of Singapore. If you want to stay in Sentosa, it will cost about 1000-2000 per night. Jinsha is more expensive, with a budget of 2000-3000. Other slightly better hotels in the urban area will cost 1000+. There are many cheaper hotels in Chinatown. If it is not the peak season, such as public holidays, 400-600 can be taken down.

Taxi fare: Generally, the taxi fare between major hotels and scenic spots in the urban area is about 8 Singapore dollars. The cost of taking a taxi from the city center to the airport is about 22-25 Singapore dollars one way.

Cost of subway ride: Generally, the cost of subway ride between major hotels and scenic spots in urban areas is 2-3 Singapore dollars one way. Generally, the subway consumption in one day (take 2-3 scenic spots as an example) is about 10-20 Singapore dollars.

The cost of restaurant consumption: breakfast is generally 6-8 Singapore dollars, and lunch and dinner are generally 10-15 Singapore dollars per meal. Generally, the cost of eating in the food court is about 30-35 Singapore dollars a day.

For LZ's reference, we spent six days in Singapore in November, and exchanged 500 Singapore dollars in China. After we came back, there were only about 10 Singapore dollars left. Of course, because the children are young, we mainly travel by taxi.

Regarding the exchange of Singapore dollars, we can consider exchanging them at home. It was at ICBC that we exchanged 500 yuan, all in 50-yuan denominations, which was very convenient for circulation. If it is not enough, exchange some Singapore dollars in Singapore. Relatively speaking, the exchange rate of Chinatown will be higher, and the exchange rate of the airport will be lower, and the handling fee will be required, which is not cost-effective.

1, air tickets: you can book in advance to choose some real exchange flights, such as Tiger Airways prices are very affordable, as well as AirAsia's promotion season.

2. Hotel: It's definitely not cost-effective to live in a single room. If you can live with your friends, you can share part of the room fee. In addition, you can experience life better by staying in some homestays or youth tours, and sometimes you have unexpected fun.

3, catering: you can choose some small restaurants in the streets or roadside, not only affordable, but sometimes there will be unexpected gains and delicious.

4, transportation: Singapore is relatively small, it is recommended to walk+subway (their subway network is very developed)

5, attractions: find more websites, and some tickets will be discounted in off-season non-hot time (Changi Airport is actually a big view spot).

6, others: but a warm reminder, if you want to save money and travel abroad, you must buy insurance. Generally, the 7-day premium is about 20 yuan.

stay

Singapore is a small place with an inch of land, which means an upgraded version of Hong Kong. This must be very expensive. If you live in places like Budong and Little India, it can be cheaper, but if you live in the urban area and the Singapore River with convenient transportation and good scenery, the price will definitely go up. I live in a windowless room near the Singapore River, which is only big enough to put down a big bed, and it costs eight or nine hundred RMB per day. Sentosa's hotel, I chose a mid-range hotel, and the price is about 1500 RMB per day. After living in Jinsha for a day, the average house price of zui is more than 3 thousand every day. Traveling to Singapore costs a lot of money on air tickets and hotels, but even if the hotel is small, the facilities and environment are good, which can be assured. After all, the overall level of the city is there.

This is the "Kelaifu Art Hotel" where I stayed at Kela Wharf next to the Singapore River. It is small in size, but clean and comfortable:

food and beverage

Divide what you eat. If you eat food stalls in places like Chinatown Building, the price is relatively normal. A fried kway teow costs seven or eight yuan, which is similar to that in China. However, if you eat in an independent restaurant with a roof, the price will go up. Regardless of the price of the dishes, restaurants are subject to consumption tax, which is around 7%. A slightly more serious restaurant will charge a service charge of about 10%, and this price will go up at once. My friend and I had a dinner in unmarked seafood and spent more than 1,700 RMB. So it depends on how you eat, what you eat and where you eat. However, durian in Singapore is really cheap. I bought a Maoshan King in Chinatown, and the store opened it first, picked out the meat for you, and it was only 100 RMB together.

traffic

If you want to cut costs, don't take a taxi in Singapore.

I took a taxi from Jinsha to Vivo vivocity, and it cost me almost 80 RMB. If you take the subway all the way, in fact, the price is similar to that of China, so you can charge by swiping your card according to the distance. I spent six days in Singapore, all by subway, and each person spent about 100 RMB. Moreover, the subway in Singapore is quite developed, and you can go almost anywhere. It is also fast and enough.

Get an E-link card, and you can use it occasionally by changing buses, and the price is similar to that in China. After zui, I have to say air tickets. The direct flights to Singapore are really not cheap. I suggest you start staring at official website of Tiger Airways, Singapore Airlines and other airlines six months in advance, and the probability of getting special air tickets is relatively high. The closer the time is, the more expensive the ticket is. Let's take action early!

entrance ticket

Tickets for scenic spots in Singapore are slightly more expensive, with more than 100 zoos and ferris wheels, and around 300 Universal Studios. Therefore, it is suggested that you book tickets on a treasure in advance, which will give you a lot of discounts. A treasure will also send the tickets to the front desk before you check into the hotel. You can just take them and play directly. It is very convenient and highly recommended.
