Unbelievable Singapore



Republic of Singapore, or better known as Singapore is an island nation in Southeast Asia. It is separated from Malaysia by the Straits of Johor to its north and from Indonesia’s Riau Islands by the Singapore Strait to its south.
Needless to say, I think most people have heard of or known about this “little red dot” country in the first place. So, I rather skip the long cum boring introduction. Perhaps, you are more concern about “What are the interesting places in Singapore?” or “What are the places I should/must visit in Singapore?”.





(1) Marina bay and the Merlion statues

The Merlion is a mascot of Singapore and it is said to be a mythical creature which is half lion and half fish. In fact, there are a total of 5 Merlion statues. But among them, I would recommend you to visit the 8.6-metre-tall original statue at Merlion Park. It is located at Marina Bay/Singapore Riverside which is created on reclaimed land. From there, you can see some Singapore’s symbolic landmarks such as Esplanade , Singapore Flyer, Marina Bay Sands Casino, Sands SkyPark and etc. The best way to catch good views of the impressive cityscape is to take a river-boat tour.
Marina Bay Sands Casino is the largest casino in Singapore that operates 24-hours. The entrance fee is free for visitors but S$100 for locals and residents. Actually, it is more than just hotels and casino. In fact, it has everything to become Southeast Asia’s next top entertainment destination.
