Singapore
This
panoramic photograph of Singapore was taken by James Blakeway.
It features a twilight view of the downtown Singapore city center and
the Singapore River.
The bridge at the left is the Esplanade Bridge.

Singapore
is the largest port in Southeast Asia and one of the busiest in the world.
It owes its success to its location between the Indian Ocean and the South
China Sea.
Once a British colony and now a member of the Commonwealth, Singapore
became an independent state in 1965.
