Singapore shopping centre


















Today, Orchard Road is brimming with upscale eateries, swanky Singapore hotels, and luxurious shopping malls from one end all the way to the other with no respite. Some of the stores in Singapore are older, more unique shops along Orchard Road, or areas that barely escaped demolition as with the ones near Emerald Hill. This ultra famous and favored shopping hub is situated among a number of ritzy Singapore hotels like the Four Seasons, the Shangri-La, and the Mandarin, and for a very good reason! There are plenty of visitors who skip the sights and hit the shopping circuit with fervor and relentlessness.

Centrepoint is by far the best-known mall for retails shops in Singapore and also the largest. The many stores inside, including celebrated Robinsons & Co, offer something for everyone. Electronics, clothing, fine arts, antiques, books, jewelry, and much more serve as some of the most popular items up for grabs. Fast food and a nice array of restaurants offer places to eat and ponder over your new acquisitions. Perhaps the second most favored is Tanglin Shopping Center along Orchard Road. Carpet shops are a big draw and feature beautiful large and smaller handmade rugs from Afghanistan, Persia, and Pakistan. Along with specialty carpets there is a wide assortment of tailors to choose from. Antique prints and maps along with special Japanese pearls are other favorite items.

On Orchard Road Singapore malls also include The Hereen and Far East Plaza. The Hereen offers some of the best dining of all the shopping malls including sumptuous Thai fare, Japanese food, Peranakan delights, and even Swiss cuisine. Many quirky, off-the-wall items, and unusual finds are in store as well as vintage and street clothing, accessories and many other fashion finds. A medley of fashion, jewels, music, electronics, and more all with a unique twist are up for grabs at Far East Plaza. Both expats and locals favor Far East Plaza for unrivaled choices and prices.
