For many Chinese tourists, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful place to take a holiday.

Maybe you fear that you won’t be able to find anything to eat in a foreign country. In Singapore, however, you’ll find a lot of food from China; you won’t have any problem finding rice, noodles, or dumplings. However, if you’re feeling brave, Singapore is an excellent place to try new food. Whether you like Indian food, western food, or Japanese food, you’ll find it all in Singapore.也许你会担心人在国外 找不到可以吃的东西。然而,如果你勇敢的话,新加坡是个品尝 新事物的精彩地方。担心勇敢的精彩的,优秀的null Most large cities have zoos, but have you ever been to a zoo at night? Singapore has a night zoo called the “Night Safari”. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it’s dark. But if you’ve ever been to a zoo during the daytime, you might understand why this zoo is so special. A lot of animals only wake up at night, so this is the best time to watch them. If you go to see lions, tigers, or foxes during the daytime, they’ll probably be asleep! At the Night Safari, you can watch these animals in more natural environment than a normal zoo.夜间野生动物园但是如果你白天去参观过动物园,你就会发现这个动物 园是多么地特别。天色晚的,黑暗的狐狸睡着的环境null One great thing about Singapore is that the temperature is almost the same all year round.
