Christmas Shopping in Orchard Road, Singapore

Took these photos before Christmas. Surprised to see lots of people during a weekday. I guess December is the time where everyone supposed to travel for holiday but due to the current covid pandemic, lots of countries closed the borders or were in lock down, so most locals who need to clear their annual leaves took this opportunity to shop for Christmas in Singapore  and be local tourists in Singapore.

The crowd in Orchard were huge as if it is pre covid period but everyone (yes , 100%) are wearing masks as it is mandatory to wear indoor or outdoors except when dining or exercise or in our own homes.

Just love the christmas atmosphere in Orchard Road with all the christmas trees and decorations.

Shopping in Paragon Orchard, and yes we need to scan our identity before entering any malls or buildings etc for contact tracing incase of a positive covid case. So far Singapore is experiencing low or zero local community cases, mostly are imported cases.

2020 is really a bad year for most of us, let's hope 2021 will be a better year and let's say bye bye to the virus.

 

Christmas Tree at Clarke Quay Mall

 First big christmas tree I saw this year. Christmas is coming but the festive mood is not there. Everything is tone down and so quiet. We cant even gather in big group. Maximum five people. Hopefully by year end, this will be increased to eight.

Christmas Decoration 2018 at Changi Airport Terminal 3 Singapore

This year Christmas Decorations at Changi Airport was "A Wizarding World Holiday" featuring the magic of Harry Potter Scenes. It was lovely and remember to watch the snow show which was a mere few minutes only but the kids love it.

Christmas Decorations at Orchard Gateway and Somerset 313, Orchard Road

It's time of the year for photos of Christmas Decorations. Time really passes so fast. Saw these christmas decorations at Orchard Gateway and Somerset 313. The theme seems to be Santa in space at Orchard Gateway and Candies at Somerset 313.

Christmas Decoration at Ion Orchard Singapore

ION Orchard was named as one of the Orchard Road's best-dressed this Christmas. I did not take lots of photos here cause was crowded and was starting to rain.

Merry Christmas - Christmas Trees

Wishing all who celebrate the occasion, a very Merry Christmas. It was a very wet Christmas Eve in Singapore, had been having heavy rain these few days with lots of loud thunderstorms.

I love Christmas Trees, love how each tree differs once the decorations were up.

Christmas Decoration 2016 at Tanglin Mall

With christmas approaching soon, most malls were decorated with christmas decorations. The christmas decorations infront of Tanglin Mall looked beautiful. At night there were "snow" falling infront of the decorations. The snow were actually bubbles. For more information, please view the official website for the timing of the event.

Pokemon Christmas Decoration at Changi Airport Terminal 3

This year Christmas Decorations at Changi Airport was a delight to most, especially Pokemon's Fans. This year Christmas theme is filled with lots of Pokemon. I am not crazy over Pokemon Go game but loved the cute pokemons.

Changi Airport Terminal 3 was the main venue for the snow and light show with the huge Pikachu Mascot. For more information on the event, view the Changi Airport's website.

The christmas tree was filled with lots of Pokemon stuff toys.

Over at Changi Airport Terminal 2, were three snorlax.

The christmas mood is already here at Changi Airport. The Light and Snow show was a delight to the crowd. The "snow" was actually some soap bubbles. As it was also the long school holiday in Singapore, kids were out in force for the beloved Pikachu. I missed out the Pikachu Parade last week but decided to come down to watch the light show instead. There were few different timings of the show and also the meet and greet by Pikachu Mascots.

Expect huge crowd and queues for the meet and greet sessions.

Video of the light show.
