Before we visit the sites,

拜訪景點之前，

I just have a couple of introductory points about visiting Singapore.

我有幾個拜訪新加坡的重點。

Singapore is a country of rules

新加坡是個嚴守紀律的國家，

and you need to follow them.

而且你必須遵守。

One of the most interesting ones is on the metro -

其中，最有趣的就是在捷運上，

they do not allow Durians.

不允許攜帶榴槤。

This is a particular type of smelly fruit for those who don’t know.

不知道的人會認為這是一種有特別臭味的水果，

And you can’t even bring the fruit on the metro.

而且你甚至不能帶上捷運。

That’s something!

就是這回事！

The other thing to note is that also a 150 dollar fine for not flushing a public toilet.

另一件重要的事是上完公共廁所不沖水會處150元罰金。

So make sure you flush and don’t carry those Durians on the subway.

所以記得上完公共廁所要沖水，還有別攜帶榴槤上捷運。

Oh, wait! Hold on, hold on.

噢！等等！等一下，等一下。

Before we go on, I need to wipe off my sweat.

在我們離開之前，我需要先擦汗。

Okay, so, we need to know when travelling to Singapore, it is really hot.

所以來新加坡旅行時要知道這裡的天氣非常熱。

So you need to a dress really cool all year round.

你需要四季皆可穿的涼爽衣物，

And bring your towel to refresh yourself.

還要帶著毛巾，讓自己保持清涼。

In front of the Fullerton Hotel is the Merlion,

在浮爾頓飯店前面就是魚尾獅，

the half fish half lion which is an icon of Singapore.

半魚半獅就是新加坡的象徵，

And the Merlion is what you need to come and see.

你一定得要來看魚尾獅。

There are three Merlion statues here.

這裡有三個魚尾獅雕像

There’s this Merlion.

一個在這裡，

There’s one on Sentosa.

一個在聖淘沙那裡，

And there’s a little lego Merlion over that way.

還有一個樂高魚尾獅在那裡。

So a neat place for a stroll in Singapore is along this Singapore river.

想要找個乾淨的地方散步，那絕對是新加坡河沿岸了。

There are the keys with the number of restaurants.

步道是那麼這麼多間餐廳的關鍵。

There are also a couple of historic bridges.

有幾座有歷史悠久的橋。

That one is the Elgin Bridge which is the oldest crossing in Singapore.

那座是愛琴橋，那裡是新加坡最古老的渡口。

There’s another historic bridge.

還有另外一座古老的橋。

The Cavenagh Bridge

加文納橋

This bridge was built In Glasgow, Scotland then it was put here.

這座橋在蘇格蘭格拉斯哥建造後，就建立在這裡了。

It has been a picturesque bridge for a very long time

加文納橋很久以前就已經是座別具一格的橋，

and actually there’s a sign on it that forbids the passage of cattle and horses.

而且其實，橋上有標示禁止牛和馬通行。

Along in Singapore river is also a statue of Sir Thomas Raffles commemorating the date in 1819

沿著新加坡河也有一個萊佛士爵士的雕像，紀念著1819年，

when he landed here in this small fishing village

當他登陸這個小漁村時，

made it part of the United Kingdom British Empire

他將這裡視為大英帝國的一部份，

and turned it from a sleepy fishing village into the metropolis it is today

而且將它從默默無名的小漁村，晉升為今天的大都市

or at least that’s what the sign says.

或至少標示上是這樣寫。

To experience some of the local Chinese culture in Singapore,

要在新加坡體驗一些當地的中國文化，

come to Singapore’s Chinatown at the Chinatown MRT shop.

就到捷運中國城賣場裡的新加坡中國城。

It comes up right there that escalator

就在那裡，那個手扶梯，

and this is the cleanest Chinatown you’ll find outside of the one in Yokohama, Japan.

而且這是最乾淨的中國城，另外一個則是在日本橫濱。

Chinatown is also home to the Buddha Tooth Relic Museum

中國城也是佛牙博物館的所在地，

that is said to house a relic of an original Buddha tooth.

聽說是存放以前一位佛陀的牙齒殘跡。

Chinatown is also hot.

中國城也非常熱。

If you come at the right time, you might even get to see one of their worship services.

如果在對的時間來，你甚至可能會看到他們的朝拜儀式。

In Chinatown, it’s about the only place in Singapore that you will find street vendors.

中國城，大概是在新加坡唯一可以看到地攤的地方。

So enjoy the street vending while you’re here.

所以當你在這裡時，盡情享受地攤的樂趣吧！

And it’s also the most orderly and organized and clean street market I think I’ve seen.

這也是我看過最整齊、最有系統也最乾淨的地攤。

We’ll stop by the Little Indian neighborhood to experience a little bit of India.

我們會駐足在小印度附近，體驗一下印度風情。

There are some narrow alleyways, lots of small shops,

那裡有一些小巷子，小巷子裡有許多小商店和

good places for souvenirs and it’s little chaotic,

買紀念品的好地方，而且它有點混亂、

very colorful and also a good place to get some Indian food…

繽紛，而且是吃到印度菜的好地方

Believe it or not

相不相信？

Little India also seems to be home to Singapore’s jewelry and pawnshop industry.

小印度看似是新加坡珠寶行和當鋪行。

They’re really located right next to each other.

他們的店面就在旁邊。

On this corner is a pawnshop located next to jewelry shop

這個角落是一間當鋪，隔壁是珠寶行，

next to pawnshop, next to a jewelry shop.

珠寶行隔壁又是當鋪，再隔壁也是珠寶行。

And this building is one of the last surviving Chinese residences in the Little India.

而這棟建築是小印度中，倖存的中國式住宅。

Now that is colorful.

現在，它非常多彩繽紛。

So in all my travels, this is the first.

所以我的旅途中，這是第一站。

This is truly an open-air laundromat

這真的是一間露天的自助洗衣店，

and everything is convenient in Singapore to food because you’ll just look over this way

而且在新加坡用餐非常方便，因為你就只要看看這條路，

and there’s open-air food court.

而且有開放的用餐場所。

See you can have a little bit to eat while you’re doing your laundry.

在等洗衣機時，你可以吃點小東西，

And right next to the food court is a restaurant that serves a fifteen dollar fish head special everyday.

在用餐地方的旁邊是一家餐廳，那裡每天都賣15元的魚頭料理，

Sweet!

太貼心啦！

And finally, Little India is also home for some temples with some really long names.

最後，小印度也是一些寺廟的所在地，那些寺廟的名字都特別長。

I’m not even going to try to pronounce this one.

我甚至不想嘗試念這個名字。

To experience the Arabian culture in Singapore,

在新加坡體驗阿拉伯文化，

come to Kampong Glam which is home to the Sultan Mosque.

就來甘榜格南，蘇丹回教堂的所在地。

There was a Sultan who actually lived here in 1823.

1823年，確實有個蘇丹住在這裡。

Right next to this mosque is the street called “Arab Street”

在清真寺旁的街道是亞伯拉街，

and straight from the mosque, there’s one way to beat the heat

從清真寺直直走下去，那條街有

is with a cool and refreshing fresh chopped coconut.

新鮮、清涼的椰子水可以消暑。

But the straw to drink the… cool and refreshing lukewarm coconut juice.

但是是用吸管喝這新鮮、清涼又微熱的椰子汁。

So after you drink the coconut, you can then have them cut the coconut open,

喝完椰子汁後，你可以請店家幫你把椰子切開，

chop it In half, they’ll give you a spoon and you can eat the coconut

切成兩半，他們會給你一支湯匙，你就可以吃椰子肉

I thought this would be cooling but it turns out that coconut’s left out gets just as hot as me.

我覺得吃下這個會非常清涼，但最後，椰子卻和我一樣熱。

So after eating this coconut, I’m still sweating.

所以吃完椰子後，我仍然在流汗。

Maybe my coconut needs a little bit of a sweat wipe.

也許我的椰子也需要擦擦汗呢！
