Tourism in Singapore is a major industry and attracts millions of tourists each
year.[1] Its cultural attraction can be attributed to its cultural diversity that reflects its colonial
history and Chinese, Malay, Indian and Arab ethnicities. It is also environmentally friendly, and
maintains natural and heritage conservation programs. As English is the dominant one of its
four official languages, it is generally easier for tourists to understand when speaking to the
local population of the country, for example, when shopping. Transport in Singapore
exhaustively covers most, if not all public venues in Singapore, which increases convenience
for tourists. This includes the well-known Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system.
The Orchard Road district, which is dominated by multi-story shopping centres and hotels, can
be considered the center of tourism in Singapore. Other popular tourist attractions include the
Singapore Zoo and its Night Safari, which allows people to explore Asian, African and
American habitats at night without any visible barriers between guests and the wild animals.
The Singapore Zoo has embraced the 'open zoo' concept whereby animals are kept in
enclosures, separated from visitors by hidden dry or wet moats, instead of caging the animals.
Jurong Bird Park is another zoological garden centred around birds, which is dedicated
towards exposing the public to as much species and varieties of birds from around the world
as possible, including a flock of one thousand flamingos. The tourist island of Sentosa, which
attracts more than 5 million visitors a year, is located in the south of Singapore, consists of
about 20-30 landmarks, such as Fort Siloso, which was built as a fortress to defend against
the Japanese during World War II. Guns from the World War II era can be seen at Fort
Siloso, from a mini-sized to a 16 pound (7 kg) gun. Recently, the island has built the Tiger Sky
Tower, which allows visitors to view the whole of Sentosa, as well as the Sentosa Luge, a
small one- or two-person sled on which one sleighs supine and feet-first. Steering is done by
shifting the weight or pulling straps attached to the sled's runners. Singapore will have two
integrated resorts with casinos in 2010, one at Marina Bay and the other at Sentosa which the
government announced during a parliament session on April 18, 2005. Visits to these
attractions can be purchased online at various sites including isango and Official Singapore
