The main touristic attractions are situated principally in three regions: CBD (the Central Business District), the islands Sentosa and Jurong. The CBD is the heart of the city, the very centre of it. This region is comprised of colonial, Chinese and business centre, the main street of the city Orchard Road, noisy vibrant blocks with hundreds of restaurants and cafes – Boat-Key and Clark-Key. One can also find the best hotels here.
The city authorities have always been investing into the architecture and stunning triumph of engineering thought over the relatively poor natural resources of the city. Hence Singapore’s fame as one of the most celebrated touristic destinations. Take for example the city’s airport – Changi Airport, which is known throughout the world for being one of its most beautiful landing facilities.
Among other places one needs to necessarily see in Singapore there are such landmarks as Suntac City which is famous for its ginormous fountain, the biggest fountain that has ever been built by the hands of men; Jurong BirdPark in the western part of the city where the guests of the city can find the highest artificial waterfall and enjoy seeing multiple species of exotic birds like parrots and flamingos with the help of modern Discovery technologies.
Singapore is a place where world’s records become a habitual sight. Alongside with the above mentioned leadership, Singapore boasts outrageously beautiful city quarters like Chinatown, Geylang Serai, Little India – those parts of the city represent the reunion of traditions and progressive trends in municipal engineering. If you are on a look-out for something more contemporary, you will be thrilled to see the modern architecture in its purest form on the city’s main street, Orchard Street.
Another sight that will apparently be a major attraction for the admirers of wild nature. Night Safari is the first night zoo where one can enjoy seeing wild beasts on their nocturnal prowl. To make your zoo visiting experience complete you might want to stroll around Singapore Zoological Gardens by daylight – or else get away from the urban beat of the city into the fresh coolness of Buloh Wetland Reserve or Bukit Timah Nature Reserve.
