Tipped to be one of the region’s safest holiday hotspots, Singapore is a well-loved tourist destination for the masses. Here’s a rundown of why the island is so popular among travellers.
The Food
Regarded as one of the world’s top destinations for foodies, the sheer variety of culinary treats available in Singapore alone is enough reason to holiday in the Lion City. From ethnic Chinese dishes in Chinatown and piping hot biriyani and parata in Little India to the succulent meals served in hawker centres across the country, wining and dining in Singapore is not only a mouth-watering experience but also highly affordable. Known for its large portions and thriving street food scene, Singapore is a foodie’s dream come true.
The Cleanliness and Safety
While Asia’s tourist hotspots are engaging cultural hotspots, cleanliness and safety are aspects that are not a given in even the most popular regional holiday destinations. Sanitation concerns, littering and theft remain threats that visitors must contend with when touring countries the likes of Thailand, India, Sri Lanka and China. Singapore sets itself apart from these nations with some of the cleanest and safest landscapes in the whole of Asia with its strict environmental and law enforcement policies credited with its success.
The Theme Parks and Attractions
Home to its very own Universal Studios Theme Park and Sentosa Island, leisure hubs are a Singaporean speciality, to say the least. Having crafted awe-inspiring tourist highlights the likes of Gardens by the Bay, Singapore Zoo and Merlion Park, the diversity of recreational pursuits available in the country make it an irresistible choice for culture buffs and other holidaymakers. Those based at Citadines Rochor Singapore or any similar Singapore serviced apartment complex will find that most of these attractions are within close range of most accommodation options.
