One of the most popular shopping hubs in Asia, Singapore’s Orchard Road offers a myriad of opportunities for those looking to indulge in some retail therapy. Apart from being the country’s main shopping street, this well known locale is also famous for its eclectic nightlife which gives you a chance to experience the wilder side of this dynamic Asian city!
Located near both the Central Business District and the Singapore River, Orchard Road has become a major tourist attraction that is also popular with locals looking to let off steam after a hard day’s work and wanting to party the night away. Since most major retail outlets and malls only close around 9.30 pm, you can enjoy shopping till late before hitting the clubs and bars in the area.
Bar hopping is a great activity to take part in while exploring Orchard Road at night and gives one a chance to soak up the lively atmosphere as well as enjoy a wide range of music styles and dining options. Rouge with its stylish interiors is a popular club worth visiting and its resident DJs play everything from hip-hop to garage music. Featuring live music which includes rock ‘n’ roll and contemporary hits, Bar None is a popular favourite in the area, while not to be missed is a chance to dine and drink at the famous franchise, Hard Rock Café.
With a Jacuzzi pool and alfresco deck, Balcony Bar is a Mediterranean lounge bar on Orchard Road worth visiting as are such hotspots as the Sanctuary, Alley Bar, the Velvet Underground and Studio Europa which offer a memorable night out on the town.
In between your many bar and club hopping adventures, you can also stop by at one of the many dining options along Orchard Road and sample a wide range of cuisine including well known local dishes. Once you have had your fill, you can set off once more on your quest to find the best partying spot in the city!
