SINGAPORE
Singapore is a very fascinating country, with its position as a global hub of trade in Asia as well as its diverse past. Being a unique piece of prized geography since the 11th century, Singapore has been occupied and reoccupied, and settled by many people from all different walks of life. But in the end, this city owns itself. Over the years, Singapore has overcome issues of sanitation, housing, poverty, and crime to grow into a clean, thriving commercial area with a tourist trade built around sublime experiences and jaw-dropping adventures.
If i got only 24 hours stay in Singapore, i will never miss out few places...

| #the heart of Orchard Road |
Orchard Road means one thing: shopping!
Relentlessly lined with flashy shopping malls and upmarket hotels, Singapore’s premier shopping street is cheerfully lined with plenty of shady trees, seating and flower boxes.
You’ll find luxury flagship stores from Dior to Armani, huge shopping malls like Ngee Ann City, department stores, cinemas and entertainment complexes.
Head to the basement food halls dotted along Orchard Road for a cheap and filling lunch, and come back at night to while the evening away at a nightclub.
Orchard Road stretches west from Istana Park, home to Singapore’s president, to the botanic gardens at its western end. It’s a long, long stretch of road, but the street’s MRT stations, Dhoby Ghaut and Orchard, will help you get around.

SECOND station will be MERLION PARK ....
Merlion Park is not as much a park as it is a standing symbol for all of Singapore. Spread out over 2,500 square meters, or about 27,000 square feet, the park is perhaps most famously known for its centerpiece, a 2 meter tall, or seven foot, Merlion cub fountain at the center.
Because of the great city view from the park, which extends out to the Marina Day Sands , the waterfront park has become a busy destination around clock, with access open 24 hours a day. The park is centrally located on One Fullerton near to the busy Central Business District.
Drawing over a million visitors each year, the park’s Merlion cub was first unveiled to the public in 1972. A large public event was recently held for the 40th year anniversary of the occasion.

THIRD station will be MARINA BAY ....
Marina Bay is the vivacious, central hub of modern Singapore, built to be a symbol of progress and technological advancement, and boasting a wide array of activities and attractions that are not only geared towards visits, but can be built as lifestyles as well. Marina Bay gives Singapore its signature skyline, and focuses commerce and trade seamlessly into the entertainment and tourism industry. It is important to giving Singapore the livable, comfortable atmosphere it desires and the reputation for luxury it is trying to build. It ties in the elements of modern urban life to the nature the area prizes so much, incorporating parks and green spaces in with business infrastructure.

| # The Marina Bay Sands in Singapore
Among other things, Marina Bay is home to a large Waterfront Promenade which features the Mist Walk, an interactive water and light display that uses fine misters to bring down the ambient temperature of the urban trail to provide a more comfortable walking experience. Eventually, the Promenade comes out at the Youth Olympic Park—Singapore’s first art park. There is also the Sands Skypark with the Infinity Pool, a hotel rooftop pool designed to let you swim on top of the world at 57 stories above ground.
There are also retail outlets, casinos, museums, and a variety of restaurants, including a chocolate bar. If this isn’t enough, Marina Bay is also home to the Singapore Flyer, the world’s largest observation wheel standing at 165 meters tall.
