National Anthem of Singapore<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">National anthems are always sung with pride and passion but one of the interesting facts about Singapore is that the national anthem is printed on the back of a $1000 bill in very small text. Whenever you exchange your currency, you could have the Singaporean national anthem in your wallet!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Singapore Celebrates National Tree Planting Day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 1971, Singapore started an annual event called \u2018National Tree Planting Day\u2019 to help the environment more. What makes this one of the more interesting facts about Singapore is that trees are planted in public places like parks and schools and some people even adopt trees as birthday presents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. The First-Ever Gardening-Themed, HortPark, is in Singapore<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, not only does Singapore make efforts to plant trees but they take pride in encouraging people to garden more. HortPark has become one of Asia\u2019s most must-visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/must-see-singapore-sights\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">attractions<\/a> because it\u2019s the first-ever park that is devoted to gardening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Singapore Has Fast Walkers!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is certainly one of the most interesting facts about Singapore. Pedestrians in the country walk so fast that statistically, they have an average walking speed of 6.15 km\/h per hour! If you\u2019re with a Singaporean <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/tourists-tips-when-visiting-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">tour guide<\/a>, make sure to keep up with them and walk fast!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. The Annual Food Festival is in July<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Singapore is known for its landscapes, buildings, and weather but it is also home to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/top-places-to-eat-in-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">delicious food!<\/a> If you love food the same way we love laundry, we advise you to visit Singapore in July because that\u2019s when the annual Singapore food festival is held.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6.
