Marina Bay Night Shoot

Hello 2013! For our first post of the year (which the Mayans did not see coming), no Singapore photo blog is complete without classic Marina Bay shoots. Here you go, enjoy!

A view of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel centred by the Helix bridge and the art museum.

The business district lights up at night.

The Marina Bay Sands' light show entertains tourists (and some locals) every night from 18:00.

Another view of the Marina Bay Sands.

Macritchie Reservoir Park

The first part of your hike wherein you take lots of photos, but only keep a few.

Monkeys roam freely in Macritchie Fishing Ground.

It is actually a jogging path for some.

One of the many signs within the Nature Trail.

A shot from the Treetop Walk. It was worth the hike.

Man-made steps on some of the escalating parts of the trail.

There are some serene parts of the park wherein you can escape the city life - at least a while.

Beautiful scenery outside the trail.

This is actually a view of the private golf course beside Macritchie.

Buddha Tooth Relic Temple

Wandering around Chinatown on a photo walk will likely lead you to the Buddha Tooth Relic temple. This is a Buddhist temple and museum that was built to house the tooth relic of Buddha, hence the name.

The facade of the temple... just when you thought of leaving your wide-angle lens that's when you'll need it.

Ant's view of the roof.

Incense burners guard all temple entrances.

Buddhists believe that burning incense honors Buddha and purifies the sprit.

An image of the Buddha.

Smaller Buddha relics line up the walls mostly for decorative purposes.

Offerings are constantly being attended to.

I have no idea what red cards says...

Chinatown

Old school Chinese Architecture.

One of the many highlights of the trip was to stop by and chow on some Authentic German Sausage.

'I am still wondering why I lost the last match'.

This is my space.

I am not Chinese, but I can roam around Chinatown.
