The city state of Singapore experienced rapid industrial and economic growth in the past fifty or so years and is presently a sought after holiday destination by those residing in neighbouring countries. Given the diversity of attractions available in the capital of the country itself, locals and tourists alike opt to make the most of their vacations by reserving a serviced residence Singapore and exploring the city. Others who seek long term accommodation for work related purposes can also locate luxury accommodation and the Riverdale Residence Singapore is a wonderful choice. As the minimum stay is around one year, patrons can reside in an exclusive neighbourhood economically without spending an overrated amount monthly.
Regardless of whether one visits Singapore for business or pleasure, the attractions and distractions of the city provide some well needed leisure. While the famed Orchard Road is ideal for some upscale shopping expeditions, the Sentosa Island provides all with the opportunity to unwind and enjoy a myriad of activities and rides. While the name Sentosa means peace and tranquillity in Malay, the history of the island was not always associated with this idea. Legend has it that the island witnessed murder and that there was a widespread outbreak of malaria which was fatal to the community that lived on the island.
At present Sentosa Island is divorced from such morbid ideas and rumours with recreational activities such as the Tiger Sky Tower that provides patrons with a beautiful view of the island as well as Singapore, the Butterfly Park and Insect Kingdom which is home to over fifty species and the oceanarium known as the Underwater World and Dolphin Lagoon located at Siloso Point that displays an array of marine species ranging from stingrays and moray eels to sharks. Exciting adrenaline filled experiences are provided through attractions such as Sentosa 4D Wonderland where visitors can experience an immersive 4D movie, a 4D experience ride and a virtual 4D roller coaster. The island is replete with a variety of experiences and requires at least a few days to explore its entirety.
