More than 66 years ago, the renowned Chinese Admiral Cheng Ho (Zheng He) embarked on his brave mission to discover new lands and people. Between the period 1405 and 1433, as commander of the Chinese Imperial fleet numbering more than 300 ships and 27,000 men, he sailed across the oceans and seas, spreading China's influence to Southeast Asia, India, the Middle East and Africa. Now you can experience the fun of sailing in a modern Chinese Junk, designed and built to replicate the imperial splendor of centuries ago. The vessel is modeled after the famous ship Da Fu (number four) of Ming Dynasty, when Chinese naval power was supreme. As dusk falls and twinkling lights appear, we set sail on a romantic harbour cruise. The cool, night air spells magic as silhouettes and shasows interplay with the lights from Marina Bay and ships in the Eastern Anchorage. Catch the sun setting over the western horizon whilst enjoying an appetizing international buffet. Complete an enchanted evening by catching a view from the sea, of the fireworks display by the Song of the Sea.
