The Marina District is where you will find the most recent additions to Singapore’s collection of world-class architecture. The infinity pool at the Marina Bay Sands hotel has a place on many a bucket list (unfortunately, you need to be a guest – or at least befriend one – to get up here) also worthy of note are the hotel’s rooftop bar and the alien landscape of Gardens by the Bay.

Bugis offers the highest concentration of Instagram-worthy locations and backgrounds, anywhere in the city. The difficulty with Haji Lane is getting a picture that doesn’t have a dozen other people in it that are doing the same thing! Taking pictures of the street art (with more on Bali Lane) is easier – angles are your friend. The Sultan Mosque looks down imposingly over the Arab Quarter and then down the street is The Projector, everyone’s favourite Instagrammable theatre with its (not-so-hidden) rooftop bar and retro vibe.

The last location on our Instagram tour of Singapore is Joo Chiat. Head down to this East Coast neighbourhood to find the best of the old Peranakan shophouses in Singapore. Dating back to the mid-1930s, these were the homes of wealthy merchants who demonstrated their wealth through the ornate designs of their homes.
