ADVENTURE MORE IN SINGAPORE
Singapore, Singapore
Are you planning a cruise from Singapore? You are about to embark on an unforgettable journey. Simply ensure that you set aside a few days prior to your sailing to truly explore Singapore while you are there. This island nation is a true cultural center. It is home to a community that represents nations from around the world and has four official languages. Climb Mount Faber's summit if you want to stretch your legs. It's more of a hill than a mountain at just over 300 feet, but it has nice views of the bay and skyline. Alternately, you can spend some time exploring the impressive Orchid Garden and Botanic Garden, which is home to 250 distinct ginger varieties. It’s the perfect lead-up to a meal of Singapore’s world-famous street food, like sweet and buttery kaya toast, flaky roti prata (sometimes called the “Asian croissant”), and tender Hainanese chicken rice, considered by many to be Singapore’s national dish.

Multicultural Medley
There are four official languages in Singapore, and even more ethnic groups have had an impact on its culture. Discover the city's Muslim heritage at Sultan Mosque along Arab Street and its Chinese character (and food!) in the Chinatown Kampong Glam is the epicenter of Malay-speaking Singapore, while Little India is the heart of the city's Tamil Indian community.
Two Sides of Nature
The tropical landscape of Singapore is as diverse as its culture. The spacey Supertrees of Gardens by the Bay seem more at home in "Avatar" than in an issue of "Better Homes and Gardens," whereas the Singapore Botanic Garden and the Orchid Garden that are adjacent to it approach horticulture from a more traditional perspective.
