Situated on its own island close to the Malay Peninsula, the city state of Singapore is often considered one of the region’s most accessible destinations. It’s a densely packed nation of more than five million people, made up of Chinese, Malay, Eurasian, and Indian residents. Singapore also has a healthy dose of expatriates from around the world.

Although it is distinctly Asian, Singapore’s origins as a British colony are still plain to see. English is an official language alongside Malay, Chinese and Tamil, but this extraordinary locale is much more than a colonial outpost.

Book a flight to Singapore with Qatar Airways and discover a rich, varied and exotic destination that’s full of surprises.

Fly to Singapore with Qatar Airways and you’ll arrive in a unique destination that has its own personality. This city state is easily accessible, thanks to its continuing importance as a trading point between east and west.

Singapore is looking to the future too, and is becoming a major location for high-tech industries and innovation. Yet, the city welcomes leisure tourists with open arms, and a flight to Singapore with Qatar Airways is a great way to begin your Far East odyssey.

Tourist attractions

Singapore’s beaches are a little slice of paradise, especially those on the tranquil Sentosa Island. If you prefer exploring colonial architecture, then head to the Bras Basah area east of Orchard and north of the Singapore River, to find a cluster of historical buildings and museums. Perhaps the city’s most famous building is the Raffles Hotel (which has appeared in plenty of films), while the National Museum of Singapore offers a more in-depth exploration of the history and culture of the region.

Singapore’s wildlife is unique and a big draw for explorers and visitors. To get a real feel for the flora and fauna of the region visit the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve. The Jurong Bird Park and Singapore Zoo should also be on your list if you’re an animal lover.

Travel requirements
