We were in Singapore for a 2-night stopover. This was not too bad but things were rather expensive although most of the shops in the main streets like Orchard road sell branded names which mostly seemed original.

Spent sometime at Raffles Palace area where you can see the Lion statue - the island's symbol. The famous Sentosa island and the Night Safari didnot get our interest at all.

A building named like Nghe An province in central Vietnam

We booked a hotel in Geylang area, not knowing that it was a red light district. It was uncomfortable for our female companion on the first day, but it was ok for the second night when we hang out on the streets, seeing many Singaporean men (mostly black Indians) walking to the "market"

Many big companies are located in Raffles and Orchard areas
