Film director, photographer, social entrepreneur,
Books recommended by Joo Jae-won, travel editor, and travel agency staff

The third book in the 'Our Travel' series, which suggests easy and new travel.
This travel destination is Singapore, a city that has achieved remarkable growth from a fishing village smaller than Seoul to a hub in Asia.
What sets a travel guidebook apart from others, crafted through meticulous research by veteran travel writers, travel planners, editors, and humanities editors? "Our Singapore Trip" is a new guidebook that has been meticulously crafted, from regional categorization and spot curation to practical travel information, visual aids like maps and route maps, and even every single term.

The regional divisions and introductions in this book are based on an understanding of the urban planning of Sir Raffles, the founding father of Singapore in the 19th century.
After looking at the Singapore area map and MRT route map on the inside cover, just flipping through the pages will easily give you a picture of Singapore's major areas and travel tips, which is clearly a testament to the power of composition.
The 260 or so spots selected through interviews with locals, expats, and Singaporean travelers are enough to make you feel the excitement of traveling, and as you follow the turning points of Singapore's history introduced throughout the book, you will come to understand the multicultural society called the "salad bowl" and its eco-friendly policies.
The use of the term “presentation” instead of “animal show” and the careful use of terminology, such as checking the scientific names of each animal, are meticulous measures that take into account the future of young travelers.

Into the book
Singapore's efforts to revitalize its small, barren territory have spanned more than half a century and continue into the future.
With the solar-powered Supertrees of Gardens by the Bay, the rainwater-harvesting artificial waterfalls at Jewel Changi Airport, and bike paths winding through large shopping malls, it's no exaggeration to say that Singaporeans are already living in a "sustainable green city."
---p.5, from "Prologue"

The Civic District area is where every moment of Singapore is preserved.
This area is home to some of Singapore's most historic buildings, many of which are linked to the Plan of the Town of Singapore by Sir Raffles, the founding father of Singapore.
---p.68, from “A Cultural and Artistic Journey to the Civic District”

Gardens by the Bay is an ongoing global project encompassing Bay South, Bay East, and Bay Central areas surrounding Marina Bay.
The area we now call “Gardens by the Bay” is Bay South, a culmination of technology and capital selected from over 70 entries from 170 companies from 24 countries in an international competition held in 2006.

---p.83, from "Exploring Gardens by the Bay"

'Hajj' is a religious ritual performed by Muslims during a pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca in southwestern Saudi Arabia. Those who complete this pilgrimage are called Hajj.
Singapore, which developed as a port early on, was the starting point for pilgrims from all over Southeast Asia heading to Mecca, and Haji Lane, where accommodations were gathered, was the place where Muslims stayed before going on pilgrimage.
---p.211, from "Exploring Haji Lane"

Little India's main attractions are located along the main streets of Serangoon Road, Race Course Road and Jalan Besar.
(Omitted) Contrary to concerns that it might be dangerous, it is safe and full of emotion.
With affordable accommodations and living costs, you'll enjoy incredible value for your money! All you need is the courage and willingness to embrace the new.
---p.223, from “A Journey to Little India”

Publisher's Review
A place where the more you look, the more charm you discover.
Introducing Singapore in a Colorful Way


The third travel destination proudly introduced by Note & Note, a publishing company that has spent a long time creating travel books, is the city-state of Singapore.
Singapore is a popular travel destination, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic, thanks to its easy access to public transportation and easy travel difficulty, as well as its excellent hygiene, public safety, and travel content.


Singapore is a place that is gently immersed in its charm.
A stay in Singapore will reveal why this city, filled with skyscrapers, is a land of plants, why Singapore's multicultural society is called a "salad bowl" with its own distinct colors rather than a "melting pot," and why its culinary culture is so developed thanks to the lifestyle of eating out.

This book goes beyond simply introducing Singapore's splendid landmarks and takes great care to capture their cultural background.
A book filled with journeys that deeply understand and experience travel destinations.
"Our Singapore Trip" is a new travel book that you can keep by your side and turn the pages with pleasure, dreaming of Singapore someday.
