Locals might worship the mall, but there's more to Singapore than
shopping.
Let the city unfold before your eyes as you soar over it on the Singapore Flyer.
Be enlightened on a trip to the beautifully ornate Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and
Museum and train your binoculars on the glorious colours of rare species at
Jurong Bird Park. Relax with an amble through Singapore Botanic
Gardens.
Strange but True
The trademark symbol of Singapore is a Merlion – a creature with the head of a lion
(Singapore literally means 'Lion City' in Malay Singapura) and the tail of a fish
(representing the island's surrounding sea).
