I love Singapore! Well, actually it's the first place i've ever been to. My mom and my twin sister went there last year and we just had the greatest time ever. Had a great time in Sentosa. I took lots of pictures and I just love the sights! I love Singapore at night! Our last night in Singapore was in Esplanade Drive. We strolled along the Merlion Park and ate dinner beside the bay. It was just memorable!Would love to work there someday:) How about you, have you been to Singapore? Share your experiences.

i been to singapore also and i've stayed there for 2 months because my dad lives there already. I love it there, though it is small there are still great sites to see like the night safari. i love traveling there because there isn't much traffic. Malls are the best, and im amaze of how hi-tech they are. Compared to where i came from, singapore is really clean, i compare it to a big garden.. hahaha... im also amazed of the education system of their country... :)) like you, i also enjoy myself.. very much... :)) i'll be returning this summer...

glad u liked it! Sentosa has great beaches these days. Very idyllic and lots of young people having fun. My favourite part of singapore is the amazing hawker food. Try chicken rice in Maxwell market (just go to the stall with the super long queue) or char kuay teow at Bedok South. Yummy.

My friend call it a paradise although I feel that Singapore is too restrictive in many sense. For example, the government seems to be planning everything for you. They are like your parents. Nevertheless, Singapore is a beautiful country with lots to eat and see.

Hi, gegelay! I love Singapore too! I visit Singapore frequently. It's one of the nicest places on earth. My child loved riding the cable car to Sentosa Island. We were so amazed with the animals at the Singapore Zoo and the Night Safari, the musical fountain, the dolphin (pink dolphins) show, the Underwater World, etc. We went to Suntec City, the Raffles Center, the Esplanade Theatre and the Merlion. I took many pictures of those places. I am fascinated with the architecture of the Esplanade Theatre because it's shaped like a Durian fruit. Singapore is basically a nice place because it's clean, very organized and there are a lot of shopping malls.

Yes, I have been there twice, one in 1996 and other one in 2001. Me and kids went there in 1996 and spent the christmas and new year with my hubby, brother and sis who were all working there that time. It was a great experience for me, but celebrating Christmas and New Year there is not really as exciting and nice as it is in our own country. The second time I went there was in 2001 when I was sent by our office for seminar/ training. My office booked me in Orchard Parade Hotel along orchard road where the business center, hotels, department stores/malls are located. Singapore is a nice place to see because it is neat / clean and it is just a small country, you can go from one tourist spot to another with comfort because there is no problem in public transport, they have an efficient MRT, the buses, train and taxis. It is a tourist-friendly country, you can't be lost, provided you have a map. Sentosa island is a nice place to go because you can see there the Underwaterworld, Volcanoland, the Merlion which is fascinating to see at night, the beaches, and many more. The Singapore Zoo, Bird's Park, Night Safari, Quay are also nice places to see. There are a lot to see, but most are man-made attractions. Other countries have natural beautiful scenic spots compared to Singapore.

My family visited singapore a few months ago. My kids especially enjoyed going to the Jurong bird park and the Singapore zoo. We also had a great time in Sentosa, the dolphin show, the luge and skyride, underwater world, it was absolutely great! And the traffic is always light. It's a tourist friendly city. You could go places there without getting lost.
