There are some holidays that you enjoy for a few days and then gradually forget. Then there are journeys that stay in your heart forever. Our family trip to Singapore belongs to the second kind. Singapore had always been on our travel list, but this journey became far more special because it wasn't just my husband, my children and me travelling together.

Most of the time, I travel there with my family, and every journey leaves us with wonderful memories and a deep sense of peace. Standing majestically in the quiet village of Avukana, this magnificent Buddha statue is more than just a historical monument. It's a masterpiece of ancient Sri Lankan engineering, art, and spirituality that continues to inspire everyone who visits.
