The vibrant city-state of Singapore is cosmopolitan and rich in her diversified culture and different races.

Singapore

On your short scenic tour, get to experience both history and modern Singapore with her magnificent views to take home memories of your visit to this city-state of Singapore. For the breadth, scope, and magnitude of its collections, the National Gallery Singapore is widely considered by art enthusiasts as being one of the greatest art museums in Singapore and the region. Subsequently, it is one of the most visited art museums in the world, often attracting almost two million visitors annually. The museum is composed of a combination of the Old Supreme Court Building and City Hall, both of which are national monuments and have played significant roles in Singapore's history.

National Gallery

Housed in the former Supreme Court, the UOB Southeast Asia Gallery presents the history of Southeast Asian art through artistic impulses shared across the region. The UOB Southeast Asia Gallery shares a compelling story of human culture, as seen through a region that has been the meeting point of major civilizations, religions, colonial powers, and the focus of struggles towards national independence and modernization. The Gallery explores four main themes critical to the art of this region: Authority and Anxiety, Imagining Country and Self, Manifesting the Nation and Redefining Art.

Raffles Landing Site, Riverboat Ride

The historical and cultural landmarks that line the city's riverfront are prominently visible from the 30-minute river cruise ride.

A ride along the Singapore River in one of the colourful riverboats makes for a fun-filled experience. In Raffles' days, these vessels were used to transport goods. Today, they are a popular way to experience a kaleidoscope of historic river images, including the 'godown' warehouses and the gracious buildings of the old waterfront set against the skyline of the new business district.

Marina Bay Sands Skypark

Before heading for the airport, you head to the top of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel building to the Sands SkyPark Observation Deck. Enjoy and take in the breath-taking views of the cityscape below. The observation deck is at the 57th level of this soaring building and is a place with some of the most spectacular views of the Lion City.
