Singapore

Singapore

December 2013 Visit

As a fan of futuristic cities, I'd always wanted to visit Singapore.  I was told that  the multiculturalism was one of a kind and that the skyline appears to have popped out of sci-fi movie set.  Both true.  It was also extremely clean everywhere and the public transit system was awesome.  I was incredibly impressed by S'pore in every way.


Marina Bay Sands Hotel and the double-helix DNA bridge


 
The double-helix bridge walkway even features the four DNA bases: T, A, C, and G


The simple yet amazing Singaporean dish chicken rice as it comes at a hawker center food stall.  There's great food everywhere in Sing


Durian milkshake, not bad if you can take the smell


Gardens by the Bay


Amazing skyline, need to shave


Downtown as seen from the Singapore Flyer ferris wheel


The main mosque of Arab Street.  Should've gone inside this gorgeous structure


 Indonesian graffiti exhibit at a local art museum


"Supertrees" at Gardens by the Bay.  These spectacular vertical gardens collect rainwater and are solar-powered


There's an upper walk that snakes among the supertrees


View from the upper walk. Is this planet earth?
