The capital of Singapore offers a wealth of vacation opportunities: it is an Asian shopping hub and a city that never stops. In addition, here you can get to know the colorful ethnic quarters better by going on an exciting walk.
Names and descriptions of Singapore symbols
Sculpture Merlion
The height of the 70-ton statue in the form of a creature with a lion's head and the body of a fish - the symbol of Singapore, is more than 8 m (you should definitely take a picture next to it). In addition, a three-ton Cub can be found a few meters from the famous statue.
The Raffles Hotel
The hotel building is one of the symbols of Singapore - all its apartments are famous for their unique design, where you can admire antique furniture and carpets. Tourists are encouraged to sample the Singapore Sling at the Long Bar, attend cultural events, the theater and shopping arcade, and stroll around the cozy courtyards.

Esplanade Theater
Guests are attracted by the architectural appearance of the Esplanade, presented in the form of two needle-shaped glass hemispheres. The complex is famous for open areas, theater and concert halls, where guests come for musicals, concerts of classical music and drama performances, as well as a shopping center, a theater studio, catering establishments, a library (stores at least 50,000 materials related to art - ordinary and audio books, CDs, tutorials, scripts for filming).
Singapore Flyer
The 165-meter Singapore Ferris Wheel, built into the building with restaurants and shops, allows you to admire the city center and its surroundings from above, in particular the islands. At the entrance, tourists are given an audio guide, thanks to which they will find out exactly what they will see while inside the glass booth. And if you wish, “on board” you can dine and drink champagne (special booths with tables are provided; in this case, visitors will make 2 turns, lasting 1 hour).
Marina Bay Sands Hotel
Guests of this hotel are interested in the 150-meter swimming pool (in front of those floating in the pool, compelling city views will open; access here is open only to hotel guests) and the Marina Sky Park observation deck. From the platform (where you can buy drinks and light snacks), located on a single “deck” of three 55-storey towers, you will be able to admire the surroundings and capture fantastic views in photographs.
