While flying back to Perth, I had to stop over at Singapore (as usual). However, this time round I had about 8 hours in Singapore before my flight. As some of my friends would know, my family came with me. They wanted to visit Perth for the first time. So 8 hours in the airport… hell alot of time to waste. So we helped ourselves to a short tour of singapore…

I particularly loved watching koi fishes, and Singapore’s airport certainly is a great place to see them.

Singapore City Pictures

This odd looking structure is actually Singapore’s convention centre. It is thought to resemble a durian or a pineapple.

This is where the large hotels are located

Finally, Singapore’s icon, the Merlion. A hybrid of a lion and a mermaid….

Honestly, I thought Singapore was a nice city. Comparing to malaysia, singapore’s city is more planned, easy to gasp the magnificent high rise buildings and easier to get around. However, I thought Singapore was a little too controlled. In the past, i’ve heard foreigners who had been to singapore saying that it has lost its oriental touch. They preferred the old singapore many many years ago.
