Welcome to Singapore, a unique pathway into the world of Asian culture. Singapore has major presence on a global scale for its importance in the Asian regions financial and business landscape. As a travel destination it offers a delicate blend of Eastern and Western culture.

Flights to Singapore are often some of the best you will ever have especially if you are flying business class. Being the entry point to a major economic precinct the major airlines such as British Airways, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, United and Qantas pride themselves on providing a top class service to business travelers to the country. The Singapore Changi Airport prides it's self on being a world leader in customer service which makes traveling through the Singapore Airport is much less pain free than others in the region. Given the blend of Chinese Confucius and English culture it is not surprising that the region prides itself of its customer service relationships and treatment of guests.

Singapore is home to the world's busiest port, making the city of Singapore a major trading and shipping centre for the Asian region. The city is distinctly different to many Western cities as it is always busy and work takes place twenty four hours a day seven days a week. The region has also diversified into financial services to become and major and rapidly emerging banking centre taking some of the shine of other major banking centres such as Hong Kong and Switzerland due to it's friendly banking legislation and location.

Singapore is home to many little cultural hubs within the city such as Chinatown and Little India. The city blends a population that is one third Chinese and also has large proportions of Malaysians, Indians, Arabs and Europeans. The local cuisine is well renowned and restaurants are highly regarded for blending Asian cuisine, fine European wine vintages and great customer service.

There are many things to do in Singapore including visiting their world famous zoo, the Singapore Zoo. The zoo has become well known for it's night zoo the "Night Safari" a night time animal exhibit and I highly recommend going on the Gourmet Safari Express if you are planning on going. The Singapore Botanic Gardens are also a major attraction and when visiting a busy and congested metropolis it is well worth appreciate how beautiful the tropical great outdoors of Singapore is and taking a break from the city. The gardens also feature an impressive range of Orchids and tropical plant life.

With a population of 4.6 million Singapore is a major metropolis and significant transit and business centre. If you are entering Asia you will likely ever through Singapore and it is more than worth your while to stop on by while waiting for your next flight.
