Just like Little India, Chinatown is also a little slice of another country whose culture has defined this island city for generations, China. And while every other major city in the world has its own Chinatown, the one in Singapore is still pretty worthwhile. As you'd expect, this district bursts with as many colors and flavors as you and your dad may try to absorb. From authentic Chinese cuisine to interesting antiques and even kooky toys made in China, spending the entire Father's Day here isn't such a bad idea. In many ways, it's the heart of Singapore.

Fish in A Kayak
Now for something more unique! Even though you can go kayaking in various places around the world, Singapore is probably one of the very few that lets you fish while you're at it. Rowing this narrow boat already required a lot of effort. You then have to catch fish at the same time? That sounds like fun! For years now, fishing has been one of the father-and-child pastimes many families do. Doing it in Singapore is no different, other than the fact that you'll do it on a kayak. And you know what?
