Singapore is a fascinating fusion of eastern and western sophistication & is comprised of the main island and more than 50 adjacent islands. Being situated just north of the equator ensures a wet tropical climate. This is especially true of the months from November through to January when frequent sunny breaks and showers dominate.
Today about three-quarters of Singaporeans are Chinese while the two largest ethnic minority groups are Malay and Indian.
Places of interest along the meandering waterway include Boat Quay and Clarke Quay-perfect for an evening stroll, dinner and watching live street performances among the cluster of shops, boutiques and eateries.
The Padang, a great expanse of lawn and site of civic, state and recreational events, is encircled by a number of historic buildings such as the Parliament House, the Supreme Court, City Hall, Victoria Theatre and the Singapore Cricket Club. Attractive museums, mosques and temples sprinkle the city like a salute to urban accomplishment.
Singapore is the epitome of a fast-paced, well organized, clean and respectable metropolis-so don't spit! Also you can take the cable car to Sentosa. Just minutes away from the crush of the city, this tranquil island presents you with beautiful sandy beaches and nature trails. You can also enjoy some great entertainment at Asia's most exciting sea world exhibition. Historical sites and museums invite quiet consideration and discovery. Kusu, Pulau Ubin, St. John's Island, Lazarus, and the Sisters Islands offer other distractions and opportunities to escape. Be warned, however, because before long, the allure of Singapore will tempt you to return.
