Just less than an hour away from Singapore, Bintan Island is known as the garden behind it. The island's tropical plants and top white beaches, coupled with cute silver langur monkeys, make for a relaxing retreat for urbanites, which is why many of the world's top resort hotels choose to be stationed here. In addition, the abundant outdoor and hydrophilic activities on land, Malay and Indonesian cultural relics, also make the holiday time very fulfilling.
