Singapore
The
small island state, which lies in central South
East Asia, is widely known as the Garden City of
the East. Living up to its name and being famous
for its cleanliness, Singapore's lush green
landscape and panoramic views greatly appeal to
all her visitors.
It is the city of South East Asia, which links
the East and the West, and beautifully blends
tradition with modernity. Being on the main
trade and travel routes between the East and the
West, Singapore is the most important and
vibrant trading centre in South East Asia.
As the population is a mix of native Chinese,
Malay, Indian and many other immigrants from all
over the world, the city provides both an
interesting cultural experience as well as
epicurean cuisines from all parts of the world.
Shopping
Orchard Road is a shopper's paradise,
where just about everything and anything is
available year round. It is lined up with glitzy
shopping malls, boutiques and comfortable food
courts. It is famous for its quality branded
items. The Great Singapore Sale, which is held
every year in June, attracts many visitors from
around the region. Expensive branded items are
sold at unbelievable discounts during this sale.
Attractions
Sentosa Island is a hot holiday spot with
international hotels and chalets. In addition to
the world famous Jurong Bird Park, there are
many bird sanctuaries across the island. The
world renowned Singapore Zoo and the one of its
kind Night Safari are just one of the few
popular attractions in Singapore.
Singapore's night life is as cool as the city
itself. There are great clubs which are open
until 6 am during the weekends to entertain and
indulge its fun loving crowd.
