Singapore, the HUB, the CENTER and the HISTORY

(Blog Update For My Singapore Trip)

Singapore has more than what you can imagne it can offer. Other than all the fashion, hi-tech and modern stuffs you can see...it still retains its historic features and classic appearances.

My trip to Singapore was very much inspired by Jack who went there quite a few times last year for his relatives weddings. I usually just go to Singapore once a year either for work purposes or just a short holiday. But this time around, taking photos in Singapore and experiencing new stuffs is so much FUN! Looking at all the brands that we don't have here in Malaysia, big corp's and companies (clothings, jewelleries...etc) that setup their shops here in Malaysia is just so awesome. Thanks to Jack for sharing his testimonies about his cool trip to Singapore...hopefully many others (Malaysians) would take a trip down to Singapore and see it from another perspective.

In the midst of all the classy looking buildings, there's the Singapore River and several Quay's around it. One of them is called Clarke Quay, that one the update will be done sometime soon as i visited the quay late at night. The one that i visited was the BOAT QUAY.

They still maintain old boats that surrounds the river here and there...you can also take a ride in the boat to travel from one side of the town to the other. Well there's more than that...Singapore is filled with surprises. I've only visited a few places, but hey just imagine what i can do by staying here for a week or two. Covered quite a lot of places for only 3nites and 4days!

Amazing travel destinations...enjoy the pictures below!

Skyscrapers reaching out to the sky...

The esplanade...some say that this is the "durian building". Well at night - this place lights up superbly!!!

Ever heard of Green is the New Blue, or White is the new Black?

Proof to show you that you can actually take a ride in one of these...

BOAT QUAY also houses many pubs and night life part of Singapore.

Latest designs of buildings vs antiques by the quay side. What a remarkable experience!

This used to be the main head office for Singapore's Post Office. Well that was way back in the colonnial days...now its known as THE FULLERTON HOTEL. One of the most expensive hotel's in Singapore.

One thing about Singapore i LIKE is their designs, architecture, the buildings with shiny windows just like in Vegas.

An old Victorian Lounge Bar exists right here in Singapore's very own BOAT QUAY.

The Fullerton Hotel houses many of the great International Artists who came down here for the MTV Asia Awards in 2004. Awesome place to stay...

An Artistic Impression...right in the middle of town. The CBD here is always filled with people at any time of the day.

The Cavenagh bridge is just right outside the Fullerton Hotel. Even the police gave away some warnings to drivers...
