Whats there to do in Singapore? In Shanghai there is some jewish stuff as well. How much time would I need there? The flight from Singapore to Beijing also takes quite long, with the little time is it really worth it?
It definitely adds on more flying time, but when I'm on Singapore Airlines I like the added time!
As per Singapore it is a totally different version of everything else you'll see in Asia. A compact city-state filled with glamorous shopping malls, stunning hotels and lots of tourist attractions.
My favorite thing there is the Zoo/Night Safari. The Zoo is unique in that none of the animals are kept behind fences or are in cages. Everything, including the lions, bears, and elephants are only feet away from you, secured by psychological barriers such as moats and electricity.
Under construction and proposed to open sometime in the spring is the Marina Bay project, the largest resort/casino in the world . It will be located on Sentosa Island, only minutes from the center of the city by cable car. Sentosa is a resort island with beaches and water sports and lots more to do. You are best buying a frommers book on Southeast Asia so you can decide on all of this yourself. Hey, some people think that Shanghai is cool and others will tell you Singapore. It's all a matter of ones opinion
