    I knew it must be on a Sunday. The crowd are essentially foreign workers on their day off. Most of the female are domestic workers and the male are Indian/Bangla construction workers.

    The reality is Singapore is truly the model that ALL other cities in the world should emulate 100%. The beautiful thing is, Singapore does not F around. You better not commit any crime here or you WILL be punished and quite severely. The US could very much learn a thing or two from this ideal city/country.

    This video brings back great memories. I was in Singapore a few years ago and fell in love with the city, it’s dining, culture and its people. What a spectacular city - city of the future! You’re both excellent fun tour guides! BTW I notice you now have over 38k subscribers! Congratulations keep up the good work! On to 100k!

    Btw, the Marina Bay area is built on land reclaimed in the late 70s to early 80s. And they made a large part of it into Gardens by the Bay.

    You may hop on a train to enjoy the scenery of this city state and then get off at a housing estate to mingle with locals. You may take the MRT at City Hall or Raffles Place. At Raffles Place, you can take a 5-minute walk to Singapore River to view the colonial buildings, bridges and the statue of Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore. Having crossed Cavenagh Bridge, turn left to go through a circular tunnel that leads you to a park where you sit and enjoy the sea breeze. From there, you climb the stairs on your right, cross Anderson Bridge and walk down the stairs on your left to the Merlion Park. After that, you return to Raffles Place to take the train to Clementi Town where you'll find a bustling town with low-price street food at coffee shops* and a hawker centre and buy some drinks and fruits at a low-price supermarket. Do not take the train during peak hours. Take them after late morning (10am ) or early afternoon (2pm). *A Singapore coffee shop is not like a Western cafe. It's a restaurant with no air-con which sells low-price hot & cold beverages and a variety of Asian food. Ask for directions; most Singaporeans, including Aunties and Uncles, can speak English. P.S. To reserve a seat, just place a packet of tissue paper on the table. Place one packet each above the chair on the table if you need two seats.

    I miss Singapore, lived there for 7 years up until 5 years ago. Still looks the same. For sure, move there! If you want to get some feedback from expats on where to go, what to see, go to a bar on Club Street in Chinatown, and also see the old shop houses.

    Welcome to Singapore! S$25 is too expensive. You should check out the local hawker food centres for cheaper and probably more delicious food.

    I would love to visit Singapore sometime! It looks like such a cool place, especially the gardens by the bay 😊

    Food to try in a hawker centre: BBQ stingray, chicken wing (singapore style is the best!), wife likes popiah, beef kwai teo (thick noodles), Bak Kut Teh, Roti Prata, Hokkien Mee, Laksa! Carrot cake (white is milder taste than black which is a bit bitter). Again don't get the cheapest versions, your stomach could suffer a little with that.

    Drinks to try in a fruit juice stall: soursop juice, mangosteen a MUST! (buy the fruits in supermarket, amazing taste). ABC drink. Water melon juice is very refreshing. Kalamansi juice for a mild lemon taste, its great.

    8.55 min location: That statue with water pouring out of the mouth is a Merlion, a classic iconic feature of Singapore, to signify Singapore heritage as a lion city, and also its past as a Malay fishing village. Sang Nila Utama discovered Singapore and probably saw a feature of a lion-like animal and named it Singapura, ie "Lion City" The fish tail signifies our fishing village roots, like a mermaid, instead create a Merlion :).

    Glad both of you had a good time in Singapore, there are more to add on to what you experienced, so do come back. Visit the heartland areas, see how to locals really live. Also there are many natural experience you can have: the forest hike, the cycling paths network, the water way sports (canoeing).
