Perhaps predictably, perennially successful Singapore is changing as it thrusts forth into the 21st Century. Increasingly, this tiny island in Southeast Asia is throwing off its ’stopover’ tag and becoming a vacation destination in its own right: Singapore now rivals Milan and New York for shopping; Universal Studio’s have built a theme park here; a world-class casino is about to open.
Singapore is commonly known as a shopping haven, a safe and secure traveling destination, a beach and city holiday rolled into one and a meeting point of many cultures and religions. Singapore is also the melting pot of many food and drinks from all over the world.
Singapore is a modern cosmopolitan country, with a bustling economy and plenty of luxury amenities for travelers. Singapore fuses traditional Asian and European cultures with the advantages of modernity and progress. Dazzling skyscrapers and restful parks coexist with the click of mah-jongg tablets and the Muslim call to prayer. Safe and well organized, the city represents a great opportunity to enjoy a range of different Asian cultures.
