Singapore, the country which homes largest number millionaires in the world will attract you with its opulent life style. Fine dining, shopping – you can engage your senses in delicacies – both cuisine and consumer goods. There are also heritage sites and wild life parks to boot.
Singapore tours take you to a region which can be called gateway to South East Asia. There are numerous cruises to various destinations of South East Asia. These cruises will take you to lush tropical rainforests, colorful open air markets, mystifying ancient cities and white sand beaches. No two countries in South East Asia offer same experience. The destinations include Malacca, Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Redang and Tioman in Malaysia; Phuket, Krabi, Ko Samui and Bangkok in Thailand. Also there are random cruises to Borneo in Malaysia, Sihanoukville in Cambodia and Ho Chi Minh City of Vietnam. There are even trips which last ten nights to Hongkong.
Singapore is located in South East Asia situated off the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula. This island country is made up of sixty three islands. Although with high density population and highly urbanized, almost half of the country is covered by greenery. About quarter of land area of Singapore makes for forest and natural reserves. As a matter of fact, urbanization has eaten up most primary rainforest. Singapore tour packages will include Bukit Timah Nature Reserve which homes the major part of remaining forest. Even though little of primary rainforest is left, there are more than three hundred parks and four nature reserves in Singapore. Many trees are also planted in Singapore. This resulted in fifty percent of country being covered in greenery and because of this Singapore is commonly known as ‘Garden City”.
Millions of tourists savor Singapore trip every year. With the aim of attracting more tourists government has legalized gambling and two new Casino resorts called “Integrated Resorts “were established in Sentosa Island and Marina Bay. Singapore is also promoted as a medical tourism hub. The highly modernized and efficient health care system of Singapore boosts this branding. A large number of foreigners seek medical care in Singapore for now and the government has devised projects to multiply the number.
Singapore packages let you experience a very diverse country. It has a variety of languages, cultures and religions for a country of its size. Buddhism is the widely practiced religion in Singapore. Monasteries and Dharma centers of all three major traditions of Buddhism- Thervada, Mahayana and Vajrayana adorn Singapore. The other major religions are Christianity, Islam, Taoism and Hinduism. Being a Multi-racial society, Singapore is a mixed bag of communities, each carrying a rich heritage which is ancient. You can by visiting various ethnic quarters, truly indulge in diverse ethnology of Singapore. Some of them are Chinatown, Kampong Glam, Little India, Joo Chiat and Katong.
Singaporeans love to dine. The diversity of food is a reason that attracts many to visit Singapore. There are varieties of food symbolizing different ethnicities. Now to add to the diversity there is the “hybridization” of different styles like Peranakan Style and Chinese- Malay mix. The modern restaurants of Singapore will serve the purpose more than adequately. You will also find hawker centers and twenty four hour coffee shops offering cheap food from all parts of Asia.
Shopping is another Singaporean past time. Shopaholics can bust their purses in malls of Orchard Road and Suntec City.
