First stop: Singapore!

It was a long flight: about 6 hours, then stopping over in Dubai, then another 6 hours to Singapore and finally arriving in the south-eastern metropolis. It was about 25°C all the time (also in the night) and a perceived humdity of 100 percent!
First of all, heading to our hotel, the Marina Bay Sands! We were not in the mood to take the metro. Fortunately, taxi cabs are very cheap in Singapore, compared to Europe. After arriving at the hotel, we wanted to see the pool and we spent almost the whole day on the top. We had an incredible view on the city while swimming in the infinity pool!
The other days, we visited for example the Botanical Gardens, Gardens by the Bay, Chinatown and Little India. One day we had a night out at Clarke Quay. Another night we very visiting the Singapore Zoo where we did a night safari which was quite poor and not worth the money.
All in all, Singapore is an amazing city and gets a high rank in my favorite city highscore list. It is multi-cultural with influences from both Asian countries and the western world.
Here are some impressions of the city captured in a few photos.
