What might life be like in the future? How can we live sustainably and have cities coexist with the natural environment? And how can the past and history of an urban area be harmoniously integrated into its present? If you are looking for answers to all these questions, Singapore can undoubtedly give you them in the best possible way!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This independent city-state may be about three-fifths the size of Attica, but a trip to the city of lions will show you that sometimes the best things come in\u2026 small packages. This Asian metropolis is unique: Here the future is already present!<\/p>\n

What you understand the more you experience it is that this Asian metropolis is not something out of a sci-fi movie\u2026 It is reality! A dazzling, spotlessly clean, safe city where you discover something interesting in every corner. The biggest mistake most people make is perhaps that they dedicate a day or two to it and see it as a simple stopover ending up in another destination in Asia. However, dazzling Singapore is undoubtedly worth dedicating more days to (we stayed six) and believe us\u2026 you won\u2019t miss it!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When to go?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The country is located near the equator and has a typical tropical climate, with abundant rainfall, high temperatures and humidity all year round (without this meaning that these conditions are not tolerable). The monsoon seasons last from December to early March and from June to September. However, this does not mean that there will necessarily be non-stop rain during those periods and whenever they do occur, they will usually be of short duration. In any season, Singaporeans do not leave home without an umbrella (either to protect themselves from the hot sun or for a sudden shower). You do not need a visa to enter the country. A few days before your trip, it is enough to fill out the online SG Arrival Card<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

How will you get around?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Singapore is one of the cities with the best public transport network in the world! The metro and buses take you everywhere and all you have to do is get a sim (or yes<\/a> if your mobile phone has one) to have data everywhere and see directions on Google maps for where you want to go. Many people recommend buying a card Tourist Pass<\/a> for Public Transport. Of course, we found that it is more beneficial (if you make up to 4-5 trips a day) to \u201cpass\u201d the Revolut<\/a> your card at the ticket validation machines and see at the end of the day how much you are charged depending on the usage. Attention!! The same card cannot be used by two people. So have it on Google Pay for your partner, friend. There are elevators and escalators in all metro stations.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Measure<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A very useful application is also Grab<\/a>. In case you need a taxi, you enter the details of the address you want to go to and it shows you the fare you will pay. It is cheaper than hailing a taxi on the street and the service is immediate. With Grab you can also order food wherever you are.<\/p>\n

What<\/strong> to<\/strong> see<\/strong><\/h4>\n
Gardens by the Bay<\/strong><\/h6>\n

\u03a4\u03bf\u00a0 Gardens <\/strong>by <\/strong>the <\/strong>Bay<\/strong> is a 1,000-acre man-made park created on what was once sea. With its completion in 2012, Singapore became one of the greenest cities in the world in terms of the area covered by flora.<\/p>\n

Approaching the area, you will see from afar the two giants dominating domes, <\/strong>which have been designed to be as energy self-sufficient as possible, minimizing their environmental impact. These are the Cloud Forest, which is the tallest, and the Flower Dome, which is the longest dome in the world and has been included in the Guinness Book of Records! Entry to both requires a ticket.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In Cloud <\/strong>Forest <\/strong>you will be impressed as it is home to the largest indoor waterfall in the world! The climate inside the dome simulates a tropical mountain with carnivorous plants, orchids, ferns and mosses, as well as native plants. In the various areas of the Cloud Forest you can see real stalactites and stalagmites, limestone rocks, but also vegetation that you would encounter on a mountain with an altitude of 2,000 meters! You will take the elevator to\u2026 the top of the mountain and follow the Cloud Walk. Tip<\/strong>: It's a good idea to have a jacket with you for the cold.<\/p>\n\r\n
