Sights
Edit ThisSIGHTS
Singapore offers many beautiful sights and photographic opportunities for the travellers. Begin your journey with a bumboat ride along the Singapore river and admire the old architecture building of yesterday years to the robust skyline and cityscrape. The ride will bring you to the icon of Singapore, The Merlion at the mouth of the river and get off at the Esplanade, Theatres on the Bay where you can view seasonal worldclass and local performance. It is a magnificent piece of architexture. The locals call it ' Durian' because it resembles the exterior of the spiky tropical fruit. The fruit durian, has a strong aroma which not everyone will like. Try it... either you will love it or hate it. You will find it along the streets at Bugis Village.
For a bird's eye view, make a reservation with Equinox restaurant at Swissotel hotel, but be warned that men can not wear sandals. The restaurant is located on the highest floor and enjoy English afterrnoon tea with a panaroma view.
Singapore is a multi-national country, different ethnic groups of people like Chinese, Muslim , Indian and others living in harmony under one roof . This is quite an unusual sight for visitors.
It will be a travel experience to last a lifetime and you will return for more.

Mustafa Center
Edit ThisIt famous department store, supermarket, pharmacy, jeweller, money changer, hotelier, travel agency and post office all rolled into one. From its early days in 1971 when it was only retailing garments, Mustafa Center sure has come a long way. In contrast to its relatively modest blue-glass exterior, you can get almost anything you want here from over 90,000 items displayed on four levels, commanding a total retail space of 70,000 square feet. With a wealth of offering at some of the lowest prices in Singapore, it's no wonder that this outlet is popular with tourists and locals more..

Singapore river
Edit ThisThe Singapore River has undergone dramatic transformation since its early days. Once the lifeline of the nation, it was the economic artery of Singapore where pioneers lived and worked together.
Many will remember a Singapore River filled with twakows, tongkangs and stevedores working hard to unload cargoes from ships anchored in the outer road of the harbour and loading fresh cargoes for these ships. The stench from the flotsam and jetsam on the Singapore River cannot be missed too.
With changes brought forth by rapid economic development and urban renewal, a way of life more..
