Another great day was waiting for us in the second day
of Singapore trip. After having the healthy homemade breakfast cooked by aunt,
we started our schedules at 11am.
First, we went to Marina Bay Sands shopping mall.
There were many luxury stores include Gucci, Prada, Chanel and so on. A
canal runs through the length of the shops and “Sampan” rides on the canal are available for
guests and shoppers at the shopping mall. The Rain
Oculus above the shopping
mall canal was awesome!
Then we walked to Gardens by the Bay which was just next to
Marina Bay Sands. Gardens by
the Bay is an integral part of a strategy by the Singapore government to
transform Singapore from a "Garden City" to a "City in a
Garden". The stated aim is to raise the quality of life by enhancing
greenery and flora in the city.

After that, we headed to the Esplanade. Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay is
a waterside building located near the mouth of the Singapore
River, purpose-built to be the centre for performing arts
for the island nation of Singapore.

Last place to visit in the evening was the Merlion
Park near the Singapore City Hall. The Merlion is a mythical creature with the head of a lion and the body of a fish, used as a mascot and national
personification of Singapore. Its name
combines "mer" meaning the sea and "lion". It is a well-known tourist icon of Singapore.
