The Terminal - John's Park

Here is a postcard from Singapore. It shows the aerial view of the Esplanade and Marina Bay. The most famous building must be The Esplanade Theatres on the Bay (濱海藝術中心) . It contains a Concert Hall which seats about 1,600 and a Theatre with a capacity of about 2,000 for the performing arts. The building was designed from 1995. And the building looks like a durian or a pair of eyes from fly. Personally I quite like the design of such building as it could reflect the local atmosphere.

the first stamp is about Trolley Bus. Trolley bus was part of the public transport in Singapore. It started its operation in 1926 and closed in 1962. Seems now the services are replaced by motor buses. And the stamp was released in 1997, from a series showing old transportation in Singapore.

The second stamp is released in 2007. It shows a Crimson Sunbird 黃腰太陽鳥. They usually live in tropical southern Asia. And the bird is the national bird of Singapore.

The third stamp shows a Moorish idol 鐮魚. They usually live at tropical areas. And the stamp was released in 2001.
