Are you in Singapore or travelling to the country for this Christmas? Are you running out of plans on how to celebrate the holidays in Singapore? Worry not because IBTimes Singapore suggests an entire list of places for you to visit and experience the best of the celebration in the Lion City.

Why you should not miss out on Christmas in Singapore

Christmas in Singapore is unique in all possible ways. First, the cosmopolitan population of Singapore gives festivals a unique touch. People from different cultural backgrounds come together to share love during the festive season. Secondly, the climate and surrounding of the city are not at all Christmassy. We associate Christmas with winter, snowfall, sledges, pine trees and reindeer. However, Singapore, being situated near the equator, the weather is always sunny and bright. Moreover, the flora and fauna also do not match that of the temperate zone. These unique characteristics of Singapore make Christmas celebration more fun.

Check out where all you can go and celebrate the festival this year:
