Singapore
Despite
its small size, Singapore has become one of the most developed countries in
Southeast Asia. Of course, you cannot miss Merlion
Park, Singapore. Meet the myth, Merlion is that iconic statue resides by
the waterfront of Merlion Park. Being Singapore’s pride and national icon,
Merlion is a mythical being, as it has the head of a lion and its body of a
fish. It originates from Singapore’s history which it comes out from a fishing
village, while the head itself represents Singapore’s name, Singapura, or what
is literally translated as ‘city of lion’ in Malay.
Hong Kong
Everyone
must have dreamed to step their feet on Hong Kong. If you happen to visit the
country, you have to try out the charming Star Ferry
Hong Kong. It is a luxurious boat that from time to time has been
transferring passengers from Hong Kong Island to Kowloon since 1888. Many
tourists ride this ferry to witness an up-close look of one of the world’s most
beautiful harbors. Meanwhile, the place itself is very meaningful for the
locals due to its efficient and reliable media of transport.
Thailand
Aside
its royal palaces and wonderful temples, you should not miss Phi Phi Island in
Thailand. In that place, there is a very unique transportation system, in which
all kinds of cars are banned. Thus, the cycle of transportation is heavily relied
on "Long Tail Boat Phi Phi Island". These boats
function as a taxi boats to carry baggage and conduct any kind of transactions,
such as buying fruits or ice at the center of the village.
