Singapore the Lion city, gets its name from the Sanskrit word Singapura which means Singh-Lion and pura-city.
Of course you'll want to shop at the malls and get around on the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit).
My top picks for family things to do in Singapore are:
Singapore Zoo
Jurong Bird Park
Bukit Timah Nature Reserve
The Boat Quay
Sentosa Island
Fort Canning Park
The Theatres on the Bay are located at the waterfront overlooking Marina Bay. The theatres are a great landmark because of its durian like dome-shaped roofs that house a 1,600-seat concert hall and a 2,000-seat theatre. It is called “the Durian” by locals and the Theatres on the Bay look like Durian, but thankfully no they do not smell like durian.
The original Merlion statue is at the opening of the Singapore River. A larger replica is found at Sentosa Island.

Hello Brad. Nice little page on Singapore here. Thanks for sharing your tips and photos. Dubai is also getting a Raffles hotel soon... I'm already looking forward to it :-) Greetings from the desert / Jess
Nice introduction to Singapore. I like their Zoos too. Also took a pic of the sign no bicycle riding - need to push the bike :) SL
