Singapore / Fukuoka

A week I am considering for November: four days in Singapore, then a short flight north to Fukuoka for three. Nothing is booked. The idea is to keep each day to one area so the trip does not turn into a commute, and to leave the afternoons loose.

Day 01

2 stops

  1. 01

    Gardens by the Bay

    18 Marina Gardens Dr, Singapore 018953

    Open in Google Maps →

    Considering this for the first evening — it is close to Marina Bay and open late, which suits a day that starts with a long flight.

  2. Transit~1 hr 2 min~15 mi

    02

    Singapore Changi Airport

    60 Airport Blvd., Singapore 819643

    Open in Google Maps →

    Arriving from Seattle, so this is a long first leg and most of the day is gone by the time I land. Planning nothing for the evening beyond getting into the city.

Day 02

2 stops

  1. 03

    Marina Bay Sands Singapore

    10 Bayfront Ave, Singapore 018956

    Open in Google Maps →

    Starting at Marina Bay because it is the easiest area to walk on a first full day, and it is a short MRT ride from most places I would stay.

  2. Walk~22 min~1.0 mi

    04

    Merlion Park

    1 Fullerton Rd, Singapore 049213

    Open in Google Maps →

    Ten minutes on foot around the water from Marina Bay Sands. Worth doing once.

Day 03

2 stops

  1. 05

    Maxwell Food Centre

    1 Kadayanallur St, Singapore 069184

    Open in Google Maps →

    A hawker centre rather than a restaurant, which is the point — this is the food I would actually go to Singapore for. Considering lunch here because it is close to Chinatown.

  2. Transit~25 min~2.6 mi

    06

    Kampong Glam

    Kampong Glam, Singapore

    Open in Google Maps →

    Afternoon in one neighbourhood instead of crossing the city twice. Haji Lane is here if the heat is manageable.

Day 04

1 stop

  1. 07

    Singapore Botanic Gardens

    Maybe

    1 Cluny Rd, Singapore 259569

    Open in Google Maps →

    November is the wet season, so this is the day I would move if it rains. Otherwise a slow morning before the flight north.

Day 05

2 stops

  1. 08

    Fukuoka Airport

    778-1 Shimousui, Hakata Ward, Fukuoka, 812-0003, Japan

    Open in Google Maps →

    Singapore to Fukuoka is about six and a half hours. Fukuoka Airport is unusually close to the centre — two subway stops to Hakata — which is part of why I would go this way round.

  2. Transit

    09

    CANAL CITY HAKATA

    1-chōme-2-2 Sumiyoshi, Hakata Ward, Fukuoka, 812-0018, Japan

    Open in Google Maps →

    Somewhere to land in Hakata on the first evening without needing a plan.

Day 06

1 stop

  1. 10

    Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine

    4-chōme-7-1 Saifu, Dazaifu, Fukuoka 818-0117, Japan

    Open in Google Maps →

    Half a day out of the city by train. Late November is around when the maple colour is supposed to be good here, which is the main reason for considering these dates at all.

Day 07

1 stop

  1. 11

    Ohori Park

    Maybe

    Japan, 〒810-0051 Fukuoka, Chuo Ward, Ōhorikōen, 1 公園管理事務所

    Open in Google Maps →

    A last morning close to the centre before flying home.
