Raffles Hotel
A must see in Singapore is the world famous Raffles Hotel. Named after the founder of modern Singapore Sir Stamford Raffles, this hotel was declared a national monument in 1987.

Chinatown
Situated next to Singapore's impressive financial district is the contrasting area of China Town. From tall, sleek ultra modern skyscrapers to an area of the city that captures ‘old' Singapore. A mix of architecture with a fusion of old and new makes this area of the city unique and captivating. Explore traditional antique shops, temples, narrow streets and enjoy the lively open air cafés, bars and restaurants.
