Hi, this is my report on Singapore. Singapore is a small country, one of the smallest in the world. Its land area
is 682.7 square km, 15000 times smaller than the US! Our economy is okay and is usually stable. It is very peaceful
here, although sometimes you may hear the sound of screaming parents. It's usual of course. A parent who doesn't scream
is abnormal. We've some nice attractions here. Some call Singapore the Food Heaven. If you are for food, go to Newton
Circus Hawker Centre. Others call Singapore the Garden City. The Botanical Garden houses some of most of our beautiful
plants. Or head off to the most famous attraction Sentosa, which houses the Merlion and some other interesting things,
like the Musical Fountain and Volcano Land. To be honest, I myself have not completed Sentosa! Sentosa is like the
Disneyland of Singapore. It might take a few days to complete but it's all worth it. If you're in for roller coaster
rides, try the Escape Theme Park, located at the East of Singapore. There're resorts all around too. Indeed it's a
wonderful experience to stay in a chalet and have a barbecue. Some other attractions include Haw Par Villa, the
Singapore Zoo, Bird Park, Science Centre and Discovery Centre and others which I can't think of. They're all definitely
worth seeing. Do visit us.
Here are some interesting facts on Singapore:
The largest fountain is found at Suntec City.
About 7 million tourists come to Singapore annually, which is twice the population of Singapore!
We have a total of 3122km of road. If you stretch all road, it will go from Singapore to Hong Kong!
We have more short-sighted people than any other country.
Hi! My name is Leena! I'm 11. I'm an Indian and I was
born in Singapore. In my school NOBODY likes flag
lowering! It's when we have to sing the National Anthem
and the school song!
Singapore's a very safe country!
There are no tornados or hurricanes! And I'm not that
sure but I think that only one earthquake occurred.
Singapore merged with Malaya and some other countries
in 1963. Then it seperated. Why? Because there were
too many riots in Singapore. AND a Common Market was
not set up. Of cause there are other reasons...
Anyway if you go to the Singapore Zoological Gardens,
you will see so many different and interesting
animals. You can take pictures with snakes and ride
the horses too! There are ponies for the younger
ones... The Bird Park is cool too! You can see so many birds!
Once, a parrot sat on my head and pecked at my
spectacles! Another parrot rode a unicycle! It is sort
of rare to see these things!
So come to Singapore and visit it! In Sentosa, you can
learn more about Singapore's history! And my friends
who went to the Botanical Gardens said that they saw a
monkey!! Even I have not visited some parts of
Singapore! See you there!
