These are just a few to get you started, plenty more to read once you're done! So let's get started...

World class Casino

Right next to Gardens By The Bay is the iconic casino complex called Marina Bay Sands. Opened in 2010 this beautiful building has quickly become the new symbol of Singapore with its impressive towers and boat shaped bridge connecting all three buildings. The hotel has over 1600 rooms and probably the best shopping mall in Singapore too. T

here's also a huge convention centre and a world class casino featuring both European and Asia games. This casino is definitely worth visiting although I recommend brushing up on your casino knowledge and skills before entering.!Why visit singapore

Marina Bay Sands is one of only 2 casinos in the city where until recently gambling was illegal. This $4.6 billion casino complex certainly put Singapore on the map and the hotel boasts the world's highest infinity pool, definitely something you have to experience for epic views of the city centre. There's also an observation deck for those not staying at the hotel, take your camera and be sure to take in the view while you're up there.

With over 5 million people living and working in this tiny country, transport is key to keeping everything moving. Singapore has arguably the best transit system in the world with ultra modern subway stations and an ever increasing number of stops opening up every year. The driver-less trains are open and roomy with protective glass walls at every station protecting passengers from fast moving trains. Its very easy and quick to get right across the city with the MRT and there's also plenty of shops and toilets at every station too. Its also ridiculously cheap with the average trip in to town costing less than 1 dollar. Grab yourself a E-Z-Link card at any station, top up with around $10 or $15 and you'll be set for your entire trip.

There's also a great bus and taxi service here. Unlike much of Asia, Singaporean cabs are required by law to use their meters so you'll always know you're paying the correct fare. Uber has just arrived in Singapore to so there's even more ways to get around now.
