We can't go wrong with this, the Mount Faber is the only mountain in Singapore. Well, it is technically a hill, but we call it a mountain, so that’s that.

Up there, you can find a couple of outdoor restaurants, the Dusk Restaurant & Bar or Arbora Hilltop Garden & Bistro. Both offer a magnificent view of the Greater Southern Waterfront and Sentosa Island.
