3:58 AM LOCAL TIMESingapore is a compact city-state lying at the tip of the Malay Peninsula, where it meets the South China Sea. Known as the Lion City, it is a global crossroads for finance, shipping, and multicultural cuisine. The city’s skyline is defined by towering landmarks like Marina Bay Sands and the Esplanade, but it’s equally rewarding for green spaces such as Gardens by the Bay and the park connector networks linking neighborhoods. Traditional districts—Chinatown, Little India, and Kampong Glam—offer heritage flavors, while newer districts are hubs for entertainment, retail, and arts. Visitors should explore on foot or transit, tasting marker dishes, visiting temples and mosques, and enjoying urban vistas and waterfront walks; every neighborhood has a unique sense of place.
