A city-state in Southeast Asia, Singapore compares favorably with its neighbors by a combination of special exoticism and modern technologies, and its tourist attraction lies in the fact that you can fly here at any time. Located in the equatorial climate zone, the city is practically not subject to sharp weather changes, and therefore the season in Singapore lasts 365 days a year.
About weather and nature
The equatorial location of Singapore determines its climatic features. The weather is always even here, the main feature of which is high temperature values. The average indicators for July and January, for example, do not differ significantly, amounting to +28 and + 26 degrees, respectively.

The water temperature on Singapore's beaches near Sentosa Island is similarly stable from month to month. In the winter season, its values do not exceed +27 degrees, and in summer they can reach +30. Precipitation in the country falls evenly throughout the year, and their level is slightly higher than the average in the period from November to the end of January.
New year season
There are many holidays in the calendar of Singapore, during which the number of tourists on the streets of the city increases significantly. Representatives of four religions live peacefully in the country, each of which provides for its own customs and rituals. One of the most interesting reasons to fly to Singapore in February is to participate in the celebration of the Chinese New Year. The dates of its onset differ annually, and in 2015 it will come on February 19. For those who celebrate this day, the streets of Singapore become the main arena for solemn and colorful processions. Seeing thousands of Chinese lanterns soaring into the sky and tasting the finest Oriental cuisine during the Chinese New Year is a great way to escape the Russian February weather.
New Year's season in Singapore is also the celebration of traditional Christian Christmas, which is considered an important day for themselves by 15% of local residents and many thousands of arriving tourists. These days, the city is adorned with Christmas lights, an army of Santa Clauses invites you to take memorable photos, and prices at sales in local malls are melting as fast as ice in buckets of champagne at holiday dinners at local restaurants.
