Very humid place like always we use to frequent Singapore en route to Europe every few years this time in the late 80’s while still young we staying for 2 weeks at the Merchant Court (Swisotel) on Clarke Quaay, the pool area is amazing and location excellent.
A very nice place to visit plenty of attractions and history close by
Singapore National Museum
There are always interesting international exhibitions going on, with a small section bringing the traveling exhibition to a local context. In the exhibition on treasures from Ukraine, there is a bit at the end describing the importance of gold in Asian cultures as well. A great place to hide from the humid weather also.
Singapore Zoo
A marvelous place when we visited. I recall many innovative designs in terms of how the space was laid out. There are very few ‘cages’ and you often look down on the dangerous animals in a way that seems like you are right there. Elephant rides were a real treat and I also remember an exotic bird literally sitting on a tree in the middle of the pedestrian path. Ground-breaking stuff. A beautiful place.
I always travel to the Philippines the last few years via Singapore I like the new airport Changai Aiport, maybe in the near future will stay for a week or 2 now as I’ve grown up abit, can get around and visit places of interest as back in the 80’s we were only children.
