Singapore: Nov. 21-26, 2016

I visited Singapore for the second time in a year. I reaffirmed that the city was modern and clean.

Many tourists gathered around Merlion in the Marina bay area. The huge Marina Bay Sands Hotel stands in the opposite side of the bay. (see also the 2nd photo from the top)

Skyscrapers such as the Marina Financial Center buildings are also around the bay.

You can enjoy the scene of the port as well as the marina bay from the higher floors of the skyscrapers.

Modern shopping mall is also built in the area.

The scene of Marina Bay Sands Garden is always impressive for me. It reminds me of the scene of Science fiction movies. (see also the top photo).

Singapore is a multicultural city. Chinese, Malay, Indian, Western and many other people live here.

There are temples of Islam, Hindu and Buddhism in the South Bridge street in the central area.

Monuments are made in the China town. They tell us the history of Chinese immigrants in the past.

I saw people enjoying drinks and talks after business hours at the restaurants along Singapore River. 

The statue of Sir Thomas Raffles, who contributed building the city as U.K.'s colony in the 19th century, stands at the side of the river.
