Things must do in Singapore: River Safari, Singapore Zoo

We visited the zoo for the get-go fourth dimension non long after nosotros moved to Singapore as well as accept returned since, it genuinely is a smashing place. Towards the terminate of in conclusion twelvemonth though a novel argue presented itself for going, the arrival of 2 giant pandas as well as the opening of the novel River Safari. We decided to permit the initial rush of visitors run downwards earlier visiting as well as spontaneously decided to finally acquire ane Lord's Day morning.

Of course of written report the pandas are past times far the stars of the exhibit but the exhibit has a lot of other animals to sentiment every bit well. The topic focuses on the wild fauna of roughly of the largest as well as most good known rivers of the world, the Mississippi, Congo, Nile, Ganges, Murray (we revisited the River Safari inwards August 2015 as well as the Murray river business office of the display has straightaway gone), Mekong as well as Yangtze. There is also a business office of the safari which focuses on the Amazon but this department volition non live on opened upward until afterwards this year. As a number at the 2nd entry prices to the safari are a lilliputian cheaper.

As yous walk through each department yous larn a lilliputian nearly that river as well as its wild fauna as well as of course of written report come across roughly of it too. As I said the primary stars of the exhibit are the 2 giant pandas, Kai Kai as well as Jia Jia. I'd never had the chance to come across giant pandas earlier as well as thus I was real excited as well as they didn't disappoint. Although nosotros alone really saw Kai Kai that afternoon (Jia Jia is shyer apparently) but all the same ane panda is ameliorate than none! I also savage inwards beloved with the Red Pandas which yous tin come across inwards this business office of the exhibit every bit well. I accept been lucky plenty to come across them inwards other zoos as well as their beautiful reddy/orange coats genuinely are stunning every bit good every bit having incredibly cute faces!

I assumed that ane time we'd seen the pandas that would live on the terminate of the safari. However every bit shortly every bit yous acquire out in that location is the Amazon exhibit (open afterwards this year) to see. Even though it is non opened upward yet in that location are roughly parts yous tin come across (since writing this as well as revisiting inwards August 2015 the Amazon River display is straightaway fully open) as well as our afternoon was rounded off past times walking through a mini monkey wood of Squirrel monkeys running inwards alongside the trees as well as branches inwards a higher house our heads. Finally nosotros got to come across manatees roughly other fauna I don't intend I've always seen inwards existent life before. Although they are large animals they are as well as thus incredibly graceful inwards the H2O as well as mesmerising to watch. It's no wonder sailors used to intend they were mermaids.

Our see was good worth it as well as I'd highly recommend it along with the zoo as well as the night safari. I don't intend yous could promise to create all 3 inwards ane hateful solar daytime though merely because you'd never come across everything as well as you'd live on exhausted! All 3 though are fabulous days (and nights inwards the representative of the dark safari) out.
