The city of Singapore sits like a sparkling jewel, gleaming by day and by night. Singapore was a British stronghold for many years and has now grown into one of China's biggest seaports.
The city benefits from duty-free shopping, so its a mecca for bargain hunters from all over the world. It has a vivid mix of communities, architecture and people. They all celebrate and party all year round and often gives the city the feel that it never really sleeps. Modern skyscrapers rub shoulders with colonial buildings and homes in elegant tree lined avenues. The port area is a bustling place with markets and fresh seafood for sale from sanpans.
Singapore has a truly cosmopolitan feel but without losing the traditional side. Reaching Singapore is very easy by air and once there you are spoilt for choice in public transport. Accommodation ranges from ultra modern to colonial 5 star hotels to smaller and more cosy guesthouses.
If you want vibrant nightlife, Singapore has it all. Everything from modern nightclubs and bars to traditional restaurants. This sophisticated city has everything and much more, with an Oriental feel and atmosphere
