I am traveling through Singapore, with three friends in December and
shall be there for 10 days I was wondering if anyone could advise us
on good places to visit and go to during our stay.


People will tell you that Sing is boring, and they'd be right. But still if
you just want to relax and throw back some adult beverage and good cheap
food then you can do worse than Sing. Of course you can also do better,
e.g. in Malaysia.

If you walk up and down Orchard Road, then Singapore is indeed boring, but
if you bother to scratch the surface, there is a wealth of interesting
architecture and culture to be found. Unfortunately, most people just go to
the malls.

And those people obviously do not know anything about the place.

Singapore is not boring, but you don't need 10 days to explore it. The
time is better invested by spending two or three days in Singapore and
the rest by travelling around Singapore.


Sinagpore IS boring. Fact is, you should spend all 10 days in Malaysia
instead.

What rubbish. There is nothing of any architectural interest in the
dump. Even the Raffles isnt original.


The Man is a moron.
