Volume 2
More pictures from my recent SEA journey.
Singaporeans invented the whole legend of the Merlion as a symbol of their long history with the sea. There are at least two more of this creature in Singapore, the baby Merlion which is right behind this one, and an enormous replica on Sentosa Island.
Eskibar in Singapore. Temperature inside: below zero degrees (or so they claim). The main bar inside is made up of a solid block of ice. Winter coats available upon request.
In the middle of Khao San Road in Bangkok. Most backpackers would agree that this is, without a doubt, THE ground zero of backpackers in Southeast Asia.
Temple of the Golden Buddha in Bangkok, with, what else? a golden buddha.
The Menara in Kuala Lumpur was built primarily to service the demands of their telecommunications industry. Now it's also a major tourist attraction.
The KL skyline as seen from the top of the Menara. It could just as well be Metro Manila, except we don't have anything like the Petronas towers.
