Tourism 50 - Celebrating 50 Years of Tourism (1964 - 2014)

Issue date 31 Oct 2014

Overview

The development of tourism in the last 50 years mirrors the remarkable trajectory that Singapore has taken in these decades. The country has blossomed into a modern cosmopolitan destination with strong local character, one of the truly global hubs in Asia. In the process of doing so, we inspire our guests in both their personal and professional lives and strengthen the pride of residents who call Singapore home.

Sensorial Experiences for the Taste Buds (1st Local) Hawker centres or cooked food centres are open-air complexes that comprise many stalls selling a wide variety of affordable local food: char kway teow, nasi biryani, satay, and chilli crab.

The Singaporean Way of Life (2nd Local) Visitors should not leave Singapore before experiencing our hawker centres, the quaint heartlands, mosaic playgrounds, old folks playing chess at the void decks - all the little things still cherished by Singaporeans.

A Playground for Every Occasion (60¢) With a gamut of world-class entertainment and leisure attractions, the Lion City promises endless fun and entertainment for each and every one.

Putting Singapore on the Map (90¢) Spotting Singapore's quintessential tourism icon - the Merlion - is easy when one is in the vicinity of the Central Business District and One Fullerton.

Urban City in a Garden (S$1.30) In a fast-paced urban setting, it is heartening to know that an oasis for the senses is just a walk away. One can easily visit Singapore's oldest national park - the Botanic Gardens or explore one of Singapore's most beautiful masterpieces, Gardens by the Bay.
