This compact guide offers visitors to Singapore practical information on all the major tourist sites, while also emphasizing the unique atmosphere and background of this country. The introduction offers an informative overview of all aspects of Singapore, putting it in its context within South-east Asia. The text covers topics such as its geography, wildlife, history, people and culture, and politics, all with reference to what would most interest the visitor. Details are also given on local food and drink specialities, crafts, local wares and souvenirs that can be found at the markets; and shopping suggestions, for example silks, batiks, baskets and paper umbrellas. To provide the general background to the details of all the major tourist areas, the reader is first taken on a visual journey around the country - in which each region is described paying particular attention to those qualities which attract visitors. As the book focuses on each individual tourist site, the text and photographs are enhanced wherever possible by snippets of additional information, expanding on the subject of customs, traditions and crafts; or giving tips on local etiquette.
