When it was founded in 1819, Singapore (the original name was “Singa Pura” - the “City of Lions”) was a swampy, densely forested island inhabited by a few fishermen. Today the city-state presents itself as a vibrant metropolis with over 5 million inhabitants. Filled with vibrant life, it is one of Asia's "Economic Dragons". Singapore is the regional center for trade, transport, banking and tourism.
It is a place of superlatives. You have to experience Singapore: despite the enormous economic growth and despite the limited land reserves, Singapore is one of the cleanest, safest and "greenest" cities in the world.
Groundbreaking infrastructure, top-class hotels (such as Marina Bay Sands - at a height of 200 m there is the magnificent "Sky Park" with a swimming pool that goes over 3 skyscrapers - 120 m long - you have the impression of swimming in Singapore), fascinating cultural Contrasts and the variety of attractions, including the exciting Formula 1 Night Race through the city of Singapore, attract more than 10 million tourists every year. There is so much to see: culturally, Singapore offers a variety of beautiful old temples, churches and mosques; Malay, Indian, Chinese, Arabic and European traditions meet here, and 'Little India' and 'Chinatown' are particularly worth seeing. Take a stroll along the most famous shopping street in Asia, Orchard Road, with over 30 first-class department stores. Treat yourself a delicious 'Singapore Sling' at the legendary Raffles Hotel, take an evening dinner cruise through the harbor along the exciting skyline. Visit the offshore islands, especially Sentosa, Singapore's holiday island. Let yourself be enchanted by the beautiful parks and zoos and experience a night safari in the outdoor area.
