Singapore Tour Episod wild One-City Hall

Work relationship, have the opportunity to come to this beautiful garden small States.

End the first week of work, decided not to waste this golden opportunity to walk. Done a lot of homework, go out the morning today.

By the way, would especially like to thank the community of nowspeaking sister, she's the Singapore tours fool Raiders of great help to me, basically today is in accordance with her introduction of attractions inside to play with, thank you ^ _ ^!

Because there is sufficient time, select the one of the many attractions-the City Hall.

Companies renting apartment in Hougang, so take the MRT (subway's name) is the most convenient choice.

Go to the Station, and 15 bucks to buy a card on a first-come, first seated ezlink NE line, then change NS line, is easily reached my destination. Appear in the Singapore subway is very convenient and cheap, a total of 9 Station Road, just 1 block longer money, and it in General, community, hotels and apartments all have to the nearest MRT station of departure, of course, there are hotels and apartments provide a round trip to the various attractions of the shuttle bus, and most are free of charge, of course, better.

Coming out from the MRT, walked, suddenly found the Citylink Mall, I heard that there are some good shops, so I decided to look around.

Not to want to come in and then regretted it. When I got there already at half past ten, but inside the lonesome, many shops are open, the business only some cafe bar and restaurant, then know that Singapore shop weekend open all around noon, so prepare for weekend shopping friends or late to go out, go to earlier had nowhere can spend money ^ _ ^. Citylink Mall in only look at some of the shop window. However, buying a home to sell paper products in the store left me with a good image, there are many beautiful paper buy used hand definitely good.

Out of the Mall, has arrived in the new city square (Suntec Tower), look at the map, leave the ' wealth ' is very near the fountain, so decided to go see the world's largest fountain.

Walk into the new city, signage, obviously, soon came to ' the fountain ' wealth, but disappointed-the fountain in the evening 8: 30 start opening up and the days of rest, Hey ... ... Take a look at the fountain, how do you see like stoves on the stand, not fun!

Back to Suntec Tower of import, see Singapore Edition of ' people's Heroes monument '-Japanese occupation martyr who Monument Park (long name), compare, and therefore the first to go around in a circle.

According to the inscription of the introduction, in World War II, more than 20 million by the Singapore residents were small Japan murder! tribute at the Chinese people have been killed, as well as other other Singapore people.

After seeing the monument to the next station-the Singapore Flyer go! it is the world's largest Ferris wheel, the highest point 165 m, commands a view of the city of Singapore, was a good one.

Walk along Raffles Boulevard, all the way around Marine Square, soon came to the ' wheel ', a very powerful high!! 29 block and a half, to buy tickets. (Note: at the entrance there will help you take pictures, then synthesis, 15 blocks! your asking price! no beat) Ferris wheel in a circle, with 30 minutes worth of personal feel, you can see the panoramic view of the city, the Singapore Strait, the coastal embankment, Marina South Pier, Xue Ersi bridge, absolute is a combat camera memory. Plug in a Word, just look at the Singapore Flyer, the entire project after 2 years and 3 months spent 2.4 billion Singapore circles.

From the Ferris wheel, returned to City Hall, all the way along the Road, walk St.Andrew's along is some Singapore old buildings: the Government building, the Supreme Court, the Victoria Theatre, Victoria Concert Hall, the old Parliament building, and so on.

One of the many buildings have been converted into a small bar offering drinks and food. Go straight to the Singapore River, there is a statue of Raffles jazz, that is when he landed. There is next to the ' Asian civilizations Museum ', the strange thing is that the door has a brief introduction to Ho Chi Minh's life, do not understand. Sitting in the Singapore River, you can see, just opposite the boat Quay, the left is a modern high-rise buildings, but the right is the traditional old houses don't have a flavor. (Note: the Singapore River, a boat can take half an hour to 12 block, but it is said that a comparative look at night, so I decided to come to the next night. However, now this diesel ship about to exit the service, if you do not have much time, may wish to sit in the day, no strategy. )

Beside the rest of the time the next map, merlion Park, not far away, so they decided to play together, because there is no other attractions nearby, specific to a single word is a bit of a waste.

Walk 10 minutes, Fullerton was also on the way to look at, it is a shop, a bit like the feeling of peace hotel in Shanghai. To tell the truth, merlion this thing itself is strange, because people want to come out of the abstract, but it is cute. Read the Singapore River, opposite the durian styling of the Esplanade, even color Durian that golden, and there are 2 ^ _ ^. Took some photos to go.

Spanning Singapore River several white bridge are very chic, but unfortunately today to go walking to Connaught Drvie Esplanade Drive on that one, it is the mouth of Singapore River Bridge, the situation is a little like Shanghai waibaidu bridge, it is also the largest river of a bridge.

At the edge, Connaught Drvie 2 x monument and Chen can look at the sound of the fountain. The fountain was nice, the European style, you have a closer look at the monument.

Return, in

The entrance to the MRT saw 1 Yuan a cold drink, do not hesitate to buy one. 2 block cookies, plus a large piece of ice cream, eat very crisp, eat at the end of the day is not too easy to get a point in the hand, huh, huh.

Go look at the ' praise ' workshop ' and ' the Church of St. Andrea, the former now turned into a hotel, but the building still very beautiful, especially the painted glass Windows.

As for the Church, there are activities, so take a look around, took some photos if you can.

Home again after City Citylink Mall and Robinson, the bustling, a little senses.

Back to the apartment is 5 points. 10 am out the door and drop ride, ride on the Ferris wheel and the rest of the time, a conservative estimate today went four and a half hours, hoho ... Small admire myself.

By the way, here are strongly commend Singapore kids, not Pocket!

Summarize a week over Singapore experience: since

1. Singapore eats things too much, each kind of style, it is not over.

2. If the tours, trip selected MRT and buses more cost-effective, taxis are not expensive, there are generally subject to a variety of surcharge.

Walking is not a good choice.

3. go to City Hall when you can put together the merlion Park, very close to swim to.

Are interested, you can sit at the wheel, it's great.

4. in Singapore shopping less international credit card because you want to go into Singapore round settlement, so counting down Exchange rate highest 5.3522.

Recommend UnionPay debit card in the ATM direct draw money, exchange rate around 5.125, airport exchange rate seems 5.158. Changers to directly use UnionPay card consumption never tried, have the opportunity to try. (Note: they here ATM and Shenzhen, the first spit card, vomit money! I thought it was fault retirement cards, money didn't take away, or lovely Singapore kids!)

5. airport there is a Visitor Center, where free maps and tourist guide, remember to take the Oh!

Well, the first chapter to this end.

Tuned Episod Two!
