In Pictures: Singapore National Day 2017 Celebration


Last August 9, 2017 was the 52th national day of Singapore. The highlight of the event was the national day parade. The parade can be viewed live by select and lucky Singaporeans as the event is a ticketed event. This year’s parade was held at the floating platform in the marina bay area.  For reason though there is no way you can view live the parade outside the floating area as it is cordoned off, the rest of the crowd still gathered within the vicinity of the marina bay. They came for the highlight of the event, the fireworks display emanating right at the middle of the water reservoir. 

Themepark: Cambodian Cultural Village, Siem Reap


Angkor archaeological sites are the main tourist attractions in Seim Reap Cambodia, but aside from that there are other places in Siem Reap that is worth visiting too. One of these is the Cambodian Cultural Village.

Cambodian Cultural Village is a themepark constructed in 2001 that contained the country’s mini replica of its famous buildings, a wax and historical museum depicting its people and its culture, and the different local ethnic villages found throughout the country.

Themepark: Mini Siam, Pattaya


 If you happen to visit Pattaya in Thailand, one of the city’s attraction that you may include in your itinerary is this outdoor themepark named Mini Siam. Located along Sukhumvit Road north of Pattaya, it contains replica of  the world’s and Thailand’s famous landmarks and monuments.

Built in 1985, the park has shown its age but still some of the structures are in good condition and the whole area is aptly maintained. Because there are a lot of them, the structures can be viewed in group for you not to miss any one of the structures. There are a lot of these famous landmarks in miniature and it would be quite tiring and time consuming if you view it up-close one at a time.
