Trip to Istana
others September 20th, 2009Today the Istana is open to the public from 8.30am – 6.00pm. It has always been my wish to step in and have a look, but I am always informed AFTER the date. *faint* This time, it was Allan who saw the news article on the Straits Times yesterday, if not I would have missed it again. Another wish came true in my birthday month. Yippee! September is proving to be really good for me. *wink*
Tip: Bring Water Bottles!!!!
Just in case you noticed that the only familiar face in the slide was Binbin… ‘cos the other 3 were either too tired or too sweaty from the long walk under the sun. *eyes rolled*
***Free entry for all Singaporeans, $1 for foreigners/tourist. $2 for anyone above 3years old who wish to enter the Main Building.

you never mention about bringing IC, is it a must on your visit?
because on the previous time we went, we must produce our pink IC for the free entry

Thanks for showing me the Istana, Angeline. I’ve never been to SIngapore before (so far until the airport LOL)

Ling,
Thank you for reminding that there are people who don’t bring their IC with them wherever they go. I have met some and thank you for reminding me how inconvenient it has caused US before. For such people, I think paying $1 wouldn’t bother them at all, such a ‘lighter sentence’ as compared to paying a visit to the police station. *eyes rolled*

I don’t know whether it is embarrassing to mention that I have not visited the Istana for the last 30 years. Hmmm….seems like a good place to visit for the next PH.
