These popular tourist attractions have been selected from 8 million locations in the last 12 months, and all of them have received a lot of positive reviews. The Empire State Building in New York, USA, ranks first among the world's most popular attractions, followed by the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France, and the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and the author of The Diary of Anne Frank.
The top 4 attractions are all over 100 years old, and the Colosseum, which ranks sixth, is even more than 1,000 years old, and compared to these historic monuments, Singapore's Gardens by the Bay, which only opened in 2012, can be said to be very "young".
The light show was well received
Visitors here are raving about the nighttime light show.
The Northern Lights show at Gardens by the Bay often makes visitors forget about themselves and think they have reached the Arctic Circle.
Even without the blessing of night lights, the supertree during the day is very eye-catching.
The layout of the park will be updated and adjusted according to the different months. The Spalliera illumination, which is 20 meters high and 25 meters wide, only appears during the Christmas season.
After reading the Supertree, let's look at something else.
The Flower Dome exhibits different flowers depending on the season
The Marina Bay Flower Dome is the world's largest glass greenhouse and a popular destination for tourists.
More than 32,000 plants are planted in the dome, and more than 160 varieties of exotic flowers and plants from five continents bloom here.
Although Singapore has four seasons of summer, the Dome still brings in different flowers from all over the world according to the season, and this March, the Japanese cherry blossom season was held in the park.
By the end of April and May, tulips were introduced from the Netherlands.
In June, the exhibits were changed from tulips to roses, and in cooperation with the Turkish Embassy in Singapore, visitors were given a romantic and cultural journey across time and space.
The highest indoor waterfall in the world
The Cloud Forest is home to the world's tallest indoor waterfall, and visitors can feel the fresh smell of flowers and plants as they feel the mist blowing across their faces.
Does this waterfall feel like a "3,000-foot rush"?
Satay is one of Singapore's local specialties, and Gardens by the Bay has also set up the "Satay by the Bay" here, allowing visitors to taste local food even after a tiring visit.
In addition to foreign tourists, many Singaporeans also like to visit here, even several times a year.
The number of visitors has exceeded 100 million
One of Singapore's most important tourist attractions, Gardens by the Bay has welcomed more than 100 million visitors since its opening in 2012. In December last year, Lawrence Wong, who was then Deputy Prime Minister, presented the prize to the 100 millionth visitor to Gardens by the Bay.

Incidentally, China also has attractions in the top 20, with the Mutianyu Great Wall ranking 19th among the world's most popular attractions with more than 20,000 reviews.
