The Financial District has lots of tall skyscrapers that create Singapore's skyline. Many of the tallest buildings of the city have competed to be the tallest skyscraper in Singapore, but it has resulted in the fact that three of the tallest skyscrapers in the city have been built to the maximum allowable height, which is 280 metres tall. The OUB Building, the UOB Building and the Republic Plaza are all reaching for the stars. The skyline reflects the city's ambitions and dreams. It also signifies the capability of its great citizens to realise their dreams. The Fullerton Singapore Hotel at the mouth of the river was built in the old style that was popular around the district. To the south of the city is Clifford Pier where one would have to go in order to take a cruise ship to one of the neighbouring islands.
There is a brilliant Food market that is known as Lau Pa Sat Festival Market and is a complete reconstruction of the first 1894 market that was held here. This venue is a great place to experience the culinary delicacies of the city and the prices are fabulous.
If its good shopping you are after, head down to Orchard Road and here you can shop until you drop. Join the rest of the mob and take part in a bargain-hunters paradise. The locals love their designer labels and really dress to impress. There are many top class malls and boutiques to spend some time admiring their wares. And while the city has a fantastic shopping belt, you can also take some time out at one of the many cool alfresco eateries, where you can try a tasty bite of local cuisine.
The big stores like Tangs and Robertsons are very popular and offer great value, while the massive Ngee Ann City shopping arcade is full of elegant boutiques and many more shops, including the famous Takashimaya. The Christmas period is really cool with all the lights and decorations up for the festive period.
