Singapore is the world's most impressive city-state — a tropical island of 5.5 million people that has become a global benchmark for what a well-run, creative, multicultural city can be. Gardens by the Bay is a feat of botanical imagination. The hawker centres serve some of Asia's finest food at extraordinary prices. Marina Bay Sands is an icon. Chinatown, Little India and Kampong Glam offer three distinct cultural worlds within walking distance of each other.
