The tropical weather of Singapore is widely known and that is the reason why many people tend to visit Singapore. To experience its exceptional weather. Singapore is a country that is closely located to the equator, almost on it. Therefore, temperatures here range from 28°C to 34°C throughout the year and it feels like summer, every month of the yeah. There are high humidity periods too which can result in profuse sweating. Therefore, to escape the heat you can always go to indoor malls, entertainment precincts and water parks.
In the last decade or so alone, the skyline of Singapore has dramatically changed especially after the introduction of the world-famed Marina Bay Sands. You wouldn't believe it if you found out that this entire plot of land used to be seawater and reclaimed land. The Marina Bay Sands filled skyline is exceptionally beautiful when it's lit with a kaleidoscope of colours in the night.
