Made in Singapore (12 April 2010)

Hop onto the Hippo Bus Heritage Tour, sit on top and see the other site of Singapore! The one hour tour takes you to some old and new site of Singapore ... Chinatown, Little India, Arab Street, the Flyer, 'Thorny' building and other parts of the Nation City where you can see old buildings ... My favourites.

I did it a couple weeks ago and wodered why I have missed out this tour for years visiting Singapore.

What did I see?

1. Tower of St Andrews Church .... looking dramatic at dusk.2. Old Mosque at Arab Street3. Hindu Temple at Little India (Yes, I know, I should get rid of that apartment at the background to make the better picture!)4. Chinese temple5. Colorful Chinatown6. Shady Chinatown7. The Rafless Hotel8. Old and New .... Fullerton Hotel and skyscraper CBD Building.9. Esplanade (The Opera House of Singapore)... or is it 'Durian' ... the King of Fruit?10. The tallest flyer in the world ... Singapore Flyer.11. And of course .... Colorful Apartment where most of Singaporean spend the life with their family.The pictures only proof some of the beautiful sights we will find ....Wondering why the pictures a bit dark? Was it cloudy that day? Nope, I took them behind tinted glass of the tour bus :) But still good, right?

Good things about Singapore, besides being very clean; even it keeps building new constructions ... Resort World, F1 Facility, casinos; it still preserves its heritage. But for the variety traditional dance, show and parade ... nothing beats Indonesia ..

So, come and see it yourself! What? Singapore or Indonesia? BOTH!

No, I did not take any money from Singapore Tourism Authority :)
