About Singapore

Singapore is a gleaming island city-state where futuristic gardens, colonial landmarks and multicultural neighbourhoods meet outstanding hawker food.

Marina Bay is the showpiece, with the three towers and rooftop deck of Marina Bay Sands, the Merlion statue spouting water into the bay, and the supertrees and glass domes of Gardens by the Bay, which glow in light shows after dark. The colonial core nearby holds the National Gallery, the Asian Civilisations Museum and the white facade of the Raffles Hotel.
