Istana is the official residence of the President of Singapore; well the Rashtrapathi Bhawan equivalent of the country.
Located along the ever busy Orchard Road (the shopping capital of Singapore), Istana is wholly surrounded by beautiful gardens and a lush green surrounding.
Although it is the ceremonial residence of the President, no President has ever lived there. It is mostly used for state functions, to receive visiting dignitaries and also houses the offices of the Prime Minister and his cabinet.
Nice. Are we allowed a tour?
