If you're feeling high after splashing some moolah at ION Orchard, prepare to get a lot higher! ION Sky (ionorchard.com) is perched 56 levels up and offers an impressive view of the surrounding areas; on clear days, you can see Malaysia in the north and Indonesia in the south. If you download the ION Sky app, local landmarks are easily identifiable through augmented reality – pretty cool. Best of all, access is complimentary from noon to midnight. Visit between noon and 4pm with a same-day receipt of S$50 or more from ION Orchard, and you'll be treated to a complimentary welcome drink (subject to availability). To reach this under-the-radar spot, take the lift from Level 4, near the concierge.
