Singapore is listed at the top when it comes to ‘world’s firsts’. Suntec city is the biggest man made fountain and is located in Singapore. Night safari is the world’s first night zoo and also the world’s highest man made waterfall at Jurong Bird Park is also located in Singapore. China town, little India and Geylang Serai are among those which illustrates the local culture.
