1. Take the Singapore Cable Car from Harbourfront Station to Mount Faber Station - 5.30pm

The Poland's Bells of Happiness was named as such in 2019 as Singapore commemorated 50 years of diplomatic relations in maritime traditions with Poland.
You will find 2 bells there, the first one marking the first anniversary of "Dar Młodzieży” ship's first ever port call in Singapore in 2018, and the second being an existing bell from its sister ship "Dar Pomorza" ship. The bells are said to bring happiness and good fortune to newlyweds!

Boasting one of the best views from a restaurant in Singapore is the multi-award-winning Arbora Hilltop Garden & Bistro, located next to the cable car station. Some of the accolades they have won include the 'Outstanding Casual Dining Experience' award by Singapore Tourism Awards (2022) and Tripadvisor Traveller’s Choice (2021).
Treat yourself to a million-dollar view overlooking mainland Singapore's southern shores.
