Dial A Flight - Singapore
You’re too late for the opium dens but you can recapture this city-states steamy colonial past with a Singapore sling... This mix of old and new is one of the reasons that make Singapore such a great destination. Part of its success comes from its multicultural population - you can enjoy a different Singapore every day of your holiday. Threes little India, the Arab quarter, Chinatown, and the colonial district. And when you need a break, wander in one of the city’s lush, tropical parks.

Lonely Planet - Singapore
Singapore has traded in its rough-and-ready opium dens and pearl luggers for towers of concrete and glass, and its steamy rickshaw image for cool efficiency and spotless streets, but you can still recapture the colonial era with a Singapore Sling under the languorous ceiling fans at Raffles Hotel.

Get Packing - Singapore
One of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, Singapore is located on the Southern tip of the Malay peninsular, and aside from being a fascinating place, with enough attractions to justify it as a holiday destination in its own right, Singapore is also well placed as a stopover on the long journey to Australia, or as a gateway to the rest of the Far East and many people visit the city as a short break destination on the way to or from somewhere else.
