My Singapore Photo Itinerary

My guide to the must visit spots for photos in Singapore is here! My Singapore Photo Itinerary delves into the locations throughout Singapore that I visited to get my photos seen on my Instagram @codiezofia. Futuristic architecture and lush green spaces create the perfect backdrop for photos. During my four days there I didn’t scratch the surface with the amount of locations Singapore has to offer. But nonetheless, the photo locations I suggest are utter perfection and like me you will love the photos you get. I will dive into information on the location, best times to visit, ideas for photos and of course outfits! So continue reading for my recommendations on where to go to get those Instaworthy shots.

Flower Dome and Cloud Forest – Gardens by the bay

My Singapore Photo Itinerary - Codie Zofia

Gardens by the bay is heaven for photos. The Flower Dome and the Cloud Forest is another perfect opportunity to get snap happy and take an abundance of photos. The ticket allows you to visit both domes. Plenty of flowers await you within the flower dome. The largest greenhouse in the world, showcasing exotic plants from five continents that are displayed in nine different gardens. The flower field awaits for you to take in the beauty and colours, full of an array of roses and what Singapore is renowned for, Orchards. If flowers aren’t for you the succulent garden and Australian garden are ideal for a range of exotic plants.

Tropical highlands await within the Cloud Forest. Orchids, pitcher plants and ferns from the tropical Montane Region. As soon as one walks in the world’s tallest indoor waterfall, standing at 35 metres greets you. Walk your way up the forest via boardwalks, taking in the numerous range of plants and flowers. Strategically designed to allow visitors to experience what grows on a highest point on the mountains. The Lost World showcases vegetation usually seen at 2,000 metres above sea level. I strongly suggest arriving to the Cloud Forest as soon as it opens, especially if you are wanting to achieve a photo of yourself in front of the waterfall without any people in it. A flowy maxi dress is ideal for those twirling and dramatic walking shots.

Best time to visit: As soon as it opens for less crowds for those perfect shots (9am)

Price: $28 for both the Flower Dome and Cloud Forest

Outfit: Flowy maxi dress for perfect twirling shots. I am wearing a Camilla Inside My Mind Long Tie Front Dress.

Over 169,000 plants compromising of 200 species cover the supertrees. The variety of different shots and angles one can get while here is astounding. From numerous different angles whilst on the ground of the Supertrees, incorporating the famous Marina Bay Sands or opt for shots of the array of trees. Walk, twirl and use the seating around the trees to get a variety of different photos. If you know me well, you know that my favourite designer is Camilla. As soon as I saw the inside my mind long tie front dress, I knew I needed it and especially to bring the vision I had for the photos I wanted in Supertree Grove and the Cloud Forest. Needless to say the dress completed how stunning the photos came out.

Ce La Vi: Singapore Photo Itinerary - Codie Zofia

Sitting high on top of Marina Bay Sands is the iconic Ce La Vi Restaurant. 360 degree views of the Singapore skyline and bay await you. Having experienced dinner previously here, there was no better place to celebrate my sisters 21st. I didn’t bring my camera, so I opted for a classic holding of the cocktail above Gardens by the bay taken on my iPhone. While up there take a walk from where the famous infinity pool is, right around to the other side overlooking Gardens By The Bay. This will allow for an abundance of photos from an array of perspectives, showcasing all that Singapore has to offer.

Best time to visit: Just before sunset

Price: Making a reservation for dinner or drinks allows you free access, to go to the viewing platform you will need to pay $24.

The canopies come alive to the sound of music each night at 7:45pm and 8:45pm. A variety of themed shows happen throughout the year, we were lucky enough to experience Opera In The Gardens. An array of opera from its golden age, created a romantic and whimsical vibe whilst the lights dazzled. A rainbow of colours dance across the trees to the rhythm of the music. Be sure to arrive early to secure a great vantage point to see the show in all its glory.
