at 18mm, 1/180 f/2.8, ISO 2500, hand held. Singapore, Singapore.

Singapore prende il nome da una leggenda Malese che ha narra di un principe del'lisola di Sumatra che si imbatté a Temasek (l'antico nome della località corrispondente più o meno alla odierna Singapore) in un leone (poiché i leoni in questa zona non sono mai esistiti probabilmente si trattò di una tigre), fatto considerato di tal buon auspicio da spingerlo a fondare Singapura ovvero la città del leone dal sanscrito Singa = leone e Pura = città. Singapore è una repubblica facente parte del Commonwealth formata da un'isola principale completamente urbanizzata e 58 altre piccole isole semideserte o abitate da piccoli villaggi di pescatori, zingari del mare, ecc. L'isola principale è collegata alla Malaysia, alla quale nel passato il piccolo stato ha fatto più volte parte, tramite un ponte stradale di poco più di un chilometro. La posizione geografica, pochi chilometri più a Nord delle equatore, rende la città-stato calda, nuvolosa, afosa e piovosa praticamente quasi tutto l'anno (con un picco di precipitazioni intorno a Novembre-Gennaio) anche se nel mio caso ho avuto la fortunata eccezione di trovare quattro giorni di cielo limpido (ma il clima era comunque molto afoso). Sempre a causa della posizione geografica, in mezzo alle principali rotte mercantili, Singapore fu sempre al centro degli interessi commerciali mondiali e questo favorì uno sviluppo che negli anni sessanta decollò lo Stato verso la modernità. La stabilità politica degli ultimi quarant'anni (purtroppo spesso a discapito della democrazia) cosa non comune in questa parte del mondo, il basso tasso di criminalità e corruzione fecero il resto: oggi è praticamente uno dei paesi più ricchi e alfabetizzati al mondo con poca disoccupazione ed ottima sanità.

This year Singapore we Ferrari drivers will remember it well!
It will probably be the only GP where Red Bull will not have won and it went well for ours.
Nice this PDR that gives me a different view of the famous Marina Bay Sands, especially makes appreciable the size and where it is located.
Exhaustive as interesting for the passing visitor your caption.

Hello Massimo, the GP has created a bit of inconvenience to residents but it was worth it, then winning in a tax haven is priceless ... The part of the photo that amazed me the most is the one that is not seen, inside the three skyscrapers: shopping centers, refreshment points, subway ... all in the name of luxury. In a few days I will be back and hope to capture new photos to show you. A cordial greeting and thanks for visiting and comment, good evening

Thank you Giovanni and Davide for the visit and comment: in this multiracial metropolis it even seems strange to me that everything works well contrary to us... Maybe it's because of the regime of democracy, but not too much....
A cordial greeting to you
