"Singapore is famous for its hawker markets, shopping hubs, tall skyscrapers and the Merlion. Dubbed as the "Mini Asia of the World", this Garden city is a potpourri of Chinese, Malayan And Indian culture. Bon Appetite!"
This island city-state started out as a poor trading port and is currently one of the most affluent countries of the world. Singapore is trying to loosen its reputation of having an uptight attitude in order to lure more tourists. Over the years, there has been an increase in shopping malls, casinos and eateries. The Prime Minister hopes to make Singapore a tropical version of New York, Paris and London, all rolled into one. Food and shopping are a favourite pastime of the people in this nation and the variety of options available is mindboggling. With so much to offer in terms of its multicultural flair and recreational activities, Singapore can be a great stopover or a whole destination by itself.
