Singapore – City of Cities

Singapore, which translates into “the Lion City”, is like a perfect model town. Relatively small, strikingly modern and immaculately neat, the city is exceptional in its region.

Moreover, Singapore features all the variety of Asia in one single place. Singapore’s locals are an intriguing blend of Chinese, Malays, Indians as well as many more expats and foreign workers from all over the world.

A city a country, Singapore is known all over the world for its severe laws and fines. However, as a result, Singapore ranks as one of the world’s safest and cleanest cities. Gourmets have much to look forward to: Exquisite restaurants specialising on many exotic cuisines are predominantly located along the scenic Singapore River and offer fine open-air dining.

Of course, Singapore is also a paradise for shopping enthusiasts. The million-soul metropolis offers state-of-the-art shopping arcades like the Orchard Road or Suntec City. A city, country and island all in one, Singapore does not span vast expanses of land but all the same houses astounding four million inhabitants.

Consequently, the attractions are abundant and mostly within walking distance: Soaring skyscrapers, colonial architectural treasures, churches and temples, theme parks, nature reserves and zoological gardens and an exciting blend of culture, cuisine, shopping and beaches.

Despite the small size of the country, there is a lot to see even outside the city bounds. More than just a stopover destination, many exciting days can be spent exploring Singapore.

The surrounding islands are a wonderful option to put a stretch of blue water between you and the bustling city centre. Kusu Island, St. John’s Island, Lazarus Island and the Sister Islands are a great place to enjoy seaside tranquillity. Some islands even feature basic facilities like showers for the visitors.

Singapore’s north sports pristine nature. Pulau Ubin is Singapore’s second largest island behind Sentosa and well worth a visit. The majority of the island is strictly protected and the other parts radiate authentic country charm.

Discover the local agriculture like Coconut and Rubber tree plantations as well as fish and shrimp farms that are attended by locals living in the traditional fisherman’s huts, the so-called “kelongs”.

We highly recommend combining a visit to Singapore with a seaside spell in Indonesia. Probably Indonesia’s most famous island, Bali is just a short distance away. Explore famously beautiful Bali and relax on the beaches!

A match made in heaven: Singapore, one of Asia’s most beautiful cities boasting a multicultural flair and superb shopping, combined with the pristine beaches on Bali! It is a pleasure for INTOSOL to tailor the details for you. Your lifetime holiday is just a phone call away…
