Singapore will always be a popular stopover destination because of its location but holidays in Singapore have a lot more to offer those who stay longer. Singapore holidays offer a fascinating insight into a modern Asian city, where eastern tradition meets a level of affluence more commonly found in the west. Singapore, to some, is over-regulated but there is no denying that the result is a safe, clean, efficient city full of tropical parks and greenery.But there’s more to Singapore holidays than ordered parks and mirrored skyscrapers. A walk around its colonial district reveals a city-state full of history and a rich mix of cultures and religions. There are many interesting walks through different ethnic areas, plenty of galleries and museums and fantastic options for eating out. Accommodation in Singapore is varied and can suit most budgets.
