Explore modern art & architecture
Singapore is busily constructing the future out of glass and vegetation. The most obvious evidence of the city-drastic state's metamorphosis into a futuristic "garden city" is Marina Bay. In Singapore, there are several architectural eye candy options. Modern marvels, sleek metal giants, and jewel-toned Peranakan-style homes compete for your attention and that of your camera. You won't have to decide where to visit because of the city's small size and well-organized transit system. The only issue is which comes first.
The installation of architectural wonders like the Esplanade, the Gardens by the Bay, the Marina Bay Sands, and the Singapore Flyer has changed Marina Bay's skyline from an empty panorama of sea and reclaimed land. Visit Marina Bay as soon as possible to witness Singapore charging headlong into the future.
Singapore's artistic expression is also much more accessible; the city is covered in commissioned public sculpture, murals, and installations. For instance, Orchard Road has a public art trail that you can explore at your own pace. You can admire the collections at upscale hotels like the Ritz Carlton Millenia and Marina Bay Sands. It can be seen as one of the Reasons to Visit Singapore.
