Simply Singapore

Reading about cultural diversity is one thing and experiencing it first hand is quite another. A flight to Singapore and you are brought in close sight with different ethnicities existing harmoniously with each other. Apart from Chinese, Malay, Indian, and Arab people forming the major part of Singapores population, the cosmopolitan microstate is home to several other ethnicities as well. Talking generally, unique travel experiences, festivals and attractions are some of the things Singapore offers, no wonder then that this country attracts millions of tourists each year. One is certainly spoilt for choice here. With so many places to see and an equal number of things to do, you better plan a rather long vacation here. Singapore has it all, family destinations, natural escapes, romantic getaways, pumping nightlife places and several shopping hubs. Amaze your little ones with a trip to the Singapore Zoo. World famous for being one of the spectacular zoos, this place uses the open zoo concept rather liberally. The zoo uses natural barriers such as rock walls, streams and vegetation to separate animals from visitors. If exciting games, sea sports and miles long beach is your poison, then straight head to Sentosa Island. A water-based theme park, Sentosas sandy beaches stretch across Tanjong, Siloso and Palawan. Beach pubs, volleyball matches, and locals enjoying a weekend with a beer by the beach are a common sight. Internationally acclaimed theme events have found a permanent venue here. These include Black Moon Foam Parties, Sentosa Sandsation, Zouk Out Dance Festival and Sentosa's yearly countdown parties. Be it a quite romantic candle-lit dinner that you desire or a night out with friends, Clark Quay is the place to go. A great entertainment venue, this popular riverside landmark in Singapore is home to various fine dining joints, outlets, nightclubs, and retail outlets. For an unforgettable, lip-smacking meal experience, you got to savor Singaporean seafood that includes black pepper crayfish, butter prawns and spicy chilly crab. Along with your delectable food enjoy some great music that comes alive after sunset. Singapores all year round tropical climate is a big crowd puller. Thats one reason why youll find many sun-starved Europeans basking under suns glory nearly anytime. After all the seeing and doing, its now time to get some retail therapy, shopping we mean. No trip to Singapore, be it short or long, can be complete without indulging in the pleasures of shopping. Amazing buys and mind-boggling variety awaits you at many places. Have fun bargaining at the small shop next door, pick up a thing or two while walking through Little India or Chinatowns colorful alleys. Buy your favorite stuff from malls on Orchard Road. Affordable and expensive, youll be surprised to find the variety in both the categories. A complete tourist destination, you ought not to miss that flight to Singapore
