В Сингапуре нужно побывать хотя бы раз ...а лучше больше You need to visit Singapore at least once ... but more is better

I liked the hotel - excellent location, walking distance to Chinatown min. 10 or 100 rubles by taxi from the hotel. Taxi in Singapore is cheap - on an E-class Mercedes from the airport to the center (20-25 km) they gave 350 rubles, I recommend it to everyone do not bother with public transport, take a taxi, pay by the meter, credit cards are accepted. We checked into the hotel at 6 am and didn’t take an extra charge for early check-in, we were pleasantly surprised. At the reception at the entrance, a deposit of $ 200 is taken by card or 300 in cash. Cash is better, because although the hotel unlocks the money on the card upon departure, you can actually use it in 30 days, i. e. at home. This applies to all deposits on the card. There is cash even in Singapore.
Breakfast is very decent, until 11 o’clock, if someone likes to sleep, it’s convenient, but to sleep in Singapore ?? ? What else about the hotel, because we only spent the night in it. Downstairs, on the basement level, there is a mall and a supermarket, very convenient, arrived tired in the evening, went for sushi, wine and to the room.
In Singapore, most people spend 2-3 days - they want to see everything and in the evening they don’t have the strength to go out for dinner, especially the first day after the flight. no one whines and pulls in different directions, as in a group. I didn’t like it, I went further. Of course, knowledge of English at a conversational level is necessary, they don’t understand Russian, not Turkey. We visited the zoo (5 points), Chinatown, all the main temples, embankment, Chinese and Japanese gardens, a botanical garden and an orchid garden, half a day for shopping on Ochard and Scotts Road. In the evening, dinner from marine reptiles (langus, crabs, etc. ) , not the Ritz-Carlton, but interesting, tasty and choice. Before going to bed at the nearby Raffles Hotel in the long bar, we missed a couple of Singapore Sling cocktails (mandatory program). A few words about shopping. We expected more. There are different shopping centers. From similar to the modernized Cherkizovsky market, only a few floors up to de Really cool. Moreover, all this can stand wall to wall. When shopping, take a passport or a hotel card, there will be a 10% discount, talk about the discount, the seller will otherwise break through the entire amount. in 40 minutes if the purchase amount is more than 150 $$.

2-3 days are not enough for Singapore, I liked everything very much, clean, cultural, modern and very humid - you can burn out under the clouds (by personal example), so without fanaticism, rub with cream so as not to spoil your vacation. You can’t describe all the impressions, but this one of the places where you can go more than once without questions (if not for the distance)
