Leaving Singapore over the National Day long weekend for a getaway to Bangkok, Bali or Phuket is practically a local reflex. But there are good reasons to stay home during this holiday too.<\/p>\n
After all, National Day is one of the few times of the year when Singapore unabashedly celebrates its uniqueness and quirks. To get you in the mood, hotels across the little red dot are rolling out staycation packages and dining experiences that spotlight different facets of the city, from heritage neighbourhoods and hawker-inspired menus to family workshops and poolside parade screenings.<\/p>\n
