Hey! Singapore also boost some top-notch attractions : its zoo is one of the best in the world, its night safari is extraordinary, its Sentosa Island very colorful & relaxing,...even tho it’s not my cuppa ;)
Most of Singapore’s attractions are fairly modern with little connection to Asia. There are of course some Temples, Mosques, Cathedrals and colonial buildings but nothing spectacular worth a special trip.
It does not have the lights of Hong Kong nor the colonial charm of Kuala Lampur but it is nevertheless a charming, reasonably relaxed and fairly green place with colorful ethnic districts and lots of markets and food courts. YES! FOOD + Shopping S’porean favorite pastime!
For such a developed and expensive place, the food offering of Singapore is surprisingly wide and reasonably priced, hence this excellent rate. Clean food courts can be found at nearly every corner while excellent restaurants cater to richer gourmets try the Hainese Chicken Rice, Malay- Satays, Indian -Roti Prata , or the Chilli Crab,BBQ StingRay…and the list go on and on..yummy!

Eh, thought you haven’t been back here for a while, still know so much about Singapore? ;)
P.S./ Singapore’s colonial charm and
Kuala Lampur are equally nice and charming, can’t compared them :)
And did you know that K.L., Malaysia has recently passed a new law, that you can’t kiss in the public? Hey, at least in Singapore you still can kiss and hug in the public openly, just no sex :P

Pecks need not be wet. Some people don’t know how to give a dry peck, and some don’t know how to give a wet peck, but both exist.
