Singapore was the first country I visited. It has a very small area, but it belongs to the top ten richest countries in the world. It is also one of the cleanest countries. True enough! You will encounter no dust and no car smoke as you walk around Singapore. The people are much disciplined. They follow traffic rules. The drivers are courteous enough to give way to the people to pass in the pedestrian. There are so many things to know about the country, and surely you will love the place like me.
On our first day, we explored the Marina Bay area. Tourists who travel around Singapore should not miss to see the place. It is where the famous Merlion Park and Esplanade were built. There are two lions in the park – the big and the small. Near the park are different cafes and restaurants which can feed your hungry stomach. At the opposite side of the Merlion Park is the newly constructed mall called The Shoppes at Marina Bay.
Prepare your feet for a long walk. The Shoppes at Marina Bay may seem near from the Merlion Park. Yet, when you go to the other side, you will know how far it is. However, it worth the walk! On the way, you will see more beautiful places. The Fullerton Bay Hotel, Raffles Hotel and other establishments are some of these places you will encounter.
