Posted by: Olivia
Welcome to our ultimate guide to shopping in Singapore! If you are a visitor eager to experience the vibrant retail scene, Singapore offers a diverse array of shopping destinations to suit every taste and budget. From luxury boutiques on Orchard Road to quirky finds in Haji Lane, sprawling malls to bustling street markets, this city-state is a shopper's paradise. Below are the must-visit spots, uncover the best deals, and share tips to make your shopping experience in Singapore truly unforgettable:
Mustafa centre: Located very near to Hotel Park Royal [4-5 mins walk], this is rarely seen without a bustling crowd of customers, Mustafa Centre is set in a place which is also known as Little India and a cult favourite in the Singaporean shopping scene. Mustafa may not be as fancy as some of Singapore’s other malls, but it has a great range of items at most affordable prices. Here, you’ll get just about everything, from perfume, souvenirs, electronics, self-care products, makeup, chocolates, confectionery and even food and groceries. This centre is open 24/7.
Bugis Street: While you may find dazzling shops for watches and gadgets, our recommendation is to avoid shopping $10 -$20-dollar fancy watches for gifts etc, same for chocolates & other gadgets from this mall. Best for high-street shopping, go for souvenirs and good quality, fashionable clothing here. Kid’s will get very cute clothing, footwear options here. Pro-tip: Don’t hesitate to bargain [unless the shop is tagged with fixed price note]. Located very near to Hotel Park Royal.
Haji Lane & Arab street: It is located near Bugis street is Arab street. You must try exploring Arab street, if you like Arabic food. Located very near to Hotel Park Royal & Bugis street.
Pagoda Street, China town: Among other small shops, try shop no. PSSF-59 for renowned Chinese tea & other Chinese traditional items sold by very friendly shop owners. If you are a Tintin fan, & not visited Belgium, then you will be thrilled to explore this small store of Tintin, directly affiliated to Belgium.
Jewel in Changi Airport: Set aside some time to visit Jewel. This is one of the most popular airports of the world, in 2020 this was voted world’s best airport for the 8th time in a row. Most shops are located inside jewel. With the world’s biggest indoor waterfall as a tourist spot, plenty of branded stores, dining options, café, gift shops etc, this is a must visit. Look for Shop “Turtle” Store locator: #02 - 205 / 206 inside Jewel Changi Airport. Turtle is loved by kids and you will get great quality items at very affordable price in this shop, lesser price than what we find in India. [You can go & explore on your departure day, may be.] Jewel is well connected with all the airport terminals.
Orchard Road: This is the Heart of Singapore’s branded, luxury retail area with some best malls.
