SIN: Marina Bay Sands

Image
10 Bayfront Avenue, Singapore Boasting itself as the most spectacular hotel in Singapore, Marina Bay Sands has lent its architectural wonder to the glittering city landscape since 2010. I actually had my staycation way before the inception of my travel blog, but hopefully it can offer a glimpse into the hotel experience nonetheless.

799 New Upper Changi Road, #03-35/37 Bedok Point, Singapore Daily: 10.00am - 10.00pm Little did I know that I'd be using the 'Theme Eatery' label again very soon after the post on Rilakkuma Café . I suppose the owner of this eatery either loves pandas so much or was inspired by Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan Province in China, which is home to the famous Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding.

TWN: NiHao @ Taipei Hostel

Image
41 Zhongxiao West Road Section 1, Cosmos Business Building, Taipei, Taiwan As my BFF and I'd be leaving for the airport the following day at around 3.30am by bus, we wouldn't want to waste money by staying at a hotel. NiHao @ Taipei Hostel (2*) provides clean accommodation that's quite wallet-friendly. It's within walking distance from Kuo Kuang Bus Terminal and Taipei Main Station.

I've just come up with a new self-explanatory label called 'Theme Eatery' as I feel the need to publish all the following cute photos (myself excluded) for Rilakkuma fans out there.
