(3/5) #UOBTravelInsider GIVEAWAY: Being a multi-national and multi-cultural city, there are a few fascinating ethnic enclaves to explore in Singapore. This colourful landmark is the last remaining Chinese villa in the history of Little India. Tan Teng Niah, a successful businessman who owned a confectionary business and various other smaller businesses, built this villa in 1900 for his wife. It was originally whitewashed and the colours were added later on. • What’s a must-see place in Singapore that you’ll highly recommend to both locals and tourists?

(2/5) #UOBTravelInsider GIVEAWAY: There is a plethora of delicious food in Singapore, and my favourite local dish is Char Kway Teow. This must-eat dish is made up of flat rice noodles stir-fried over high heat with cockles, Chinese sausages, eggs, fishcakes, beansprouts, chives and a huge amount of soy sauce. Joo Chiat Place Fried Kway Teow is the stall I highly recommend. Each plate is individually prepared so you can expect a piping hot plate of char kway teow generously packed with ingredients. Instead of the usual sweet finish from the dark sauce, the char kway teow here is more savoury and I love the distinct smokey flavour of the noodles. • Do you have a favourite dish, hawker stall, café or restaurant in Singapore?

The mini bamboo forest at @kyoto_yura_mgallery is a lovely spot for pictures, especially when the area isn’t packed with tourists, unlike the Arashiyama bamboo forest. The thoughtful hotel has even placed traditional oil paper umbrellas for guests to use as photo props. Have you been impressed by any hotels around the world? Why do you like that hotel so much? • • • #iamtb #tlpicks #passionpassport #thediscoverer #travelblogger #japan #日本 #ig_japan #igersjp #instagramjapan #kyoto #kyotojapan #京都 #journeysofgirls #travelgirl #traveladdict #dametraveler #girlslovetravel #wearetravelgirls #travelling #travelgram #igtravel #traveltheworld #doyoutravel #hotel #mgallery #sofitel
A trip to Osaka will not be complete without a visit to Dotonbori. As much as we love the liveliness of the area, we do not want to stay in a hotel located in Dotonbori. We prefer escaping to a less crowded neighbourhood in order to rest and recharge properly before exploring the city again. @hotelnoum is surrounded by nature, and there is no tourist crowding the neighbourhood. We were able to walk around at our own leisure pace, and did not have to worry about ‘hogging the walkway’ and causing a ‘human jam’ if you get what I mean. When we were crossing the bridge to get from the metro station to Hotel Noum Osaka, we were wowed by the river view and the autumn foliage surrounding the park. To our surprise, the hotel is situated right beside the park. It’s very romantic to take a stroll at the park with your loved one. Since Osaka offers plenty of delicious food options, you can also squeeze in a morning or evening run along the river just to keep your health in check during your holiday. It felt amazing to feel the gentle breeze carrying the scent of freshly baked pastries and bread brushing our cheeks and listen to the sounds of children’s laughter, birds’ singing, and leaves rustling in the wind. What do you do to relax? • • • #iamtb #tlpicks #passionpassport #thediscoverer #travelblogger #japan #日本 #ig_japan #igersjp #instagramjapan #osaka #kansai #大阪 #japantrip #journeysofgirls #travelgirl #traveladdict #dametraveler #girlslovetravel #wearetravelgirls #travelling #travelgram #igtravel #traveltheworld #doyoutravel #hotel
Two roads diverged in a wood, and we took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference. We highly recommend visiting the Minoo Falls since you’ll get to view impressive autumn foliage without having to jostle with the crowd, unlike at famous temples in Kyoto or at the touristic Osaka Castle. • Book a fun photoshoot session with @sweet.escape and get US$50 discount + 30 extra photos for any bookings worldwide by entering this code – “ALEXISJETSETS” – at the checkout page. • I still haven’t decided which countries and cities to explore in 2020.
