Where to go for the best night out in Singapore.
Singapore is quickly becoming known for its hot nightlife scene. After dark it transforms itself from a busy and chaotic business centre into a vibrant, buzzing entertainment hub that caters to the wants and needs of locals, students and tourists alike. Here are four destinations to watch for in this glittering, sophisticated city.
The Jewel Box
The Jewel Box at Mount Faber Park is an iconic hilltop destination. The architecture of the building is unique with twinkling starlight and changing colour washes and houses trendy bars like Black Opal, Empress Jade, Moonstone and Sapphire. For guests visiting Sentosa Island, the Jewel Box offers a unique and premium experience.

The Library
Don’t be deceived by the unassuming bookshop front of this trendy, speakeasy-inspired joint. You’ll need to get a password from the waiters next door at Keong Saik Snacks or from their sister bar The Study's Facebook page, and tell the bookkeeper the password to get into this unique bar. Once inside, make your way through the secret passageway through a sliding book shelf to a stunning mirrored room and a menu of delicious appetizers and trendy cocktails. Located at 47 Keong Saik Road, this cool underground bar doesn't even have a website or social media presence.

Brotzeit
Beer lovers will love this Singapore chain of restaurants that specializes in authentic German cuisine accompanied with a wide range of world-class German beers in a fun and vibrant environment. Located in Singapore’s biggest mall, VivoCity, Brotzeit is always buzzing with lots of people. “Brot” means bread in German while “Zeit” refers to time. In other words, it’s time to have a meal with delicious beer. Popular dishes to pair with your ale include spicy pork sausage, sauerkraut and a to-die-for potato salad.
