Tours to Singapore
Singapore is a city located on islands near the southern tip of the Malacca Peninsula. It is very difficult to grow and develop in breadth for the city, because the territory of the islands is very limited. That is why Singapore is striving upward, and therefore its skyscrapers are among the tallest on the planet. However, thanks to the land reclamation program adopted in the country back in the middle of the twentieth century, the city is expanding in all directions, and participants of tours to Singapore can make sure that it looks modern, stylish and very bright.
History with geography
Until independence in August 1965, Singapore was a bargaining chip in many political and military conflicts. For the first time, Chinese chronicles of the 3rd century mention the existence of the city. Then the city was a major trade center in the Srivijaya empire. Then it passed to the Malays and the Portuguese, was part of the British Empire and was conquered by Japan. Having turned out to be an independent state, Singapore in thirty years was able to make an amazing leap in economic and cultural development and become one of the most highly developed world powers..
