Singapore travelogue picture
Singapore, being wall to wall concrete is suprisingly refreshing. It is the technological capital of SE Asia (surpassing Hong Kong now) and every other vehicle is a BMW or Mercedes. That being said, it is not a snobby country. There is a lot of fun to be had.

Favourite spots:

Walking around at night is the best way to see Singapore. The entire city lights up and everyone is sharp looking and seems to really enjoy the night life.

What's really great:

Everyone has heard about how strict it is with not chewing bubble gum, etc., but you don't even notice it. It is incredibly clean and very modern. With all restrictions, the local police turn a blind eye to prostitution...which is everywhere. They hang out in clubs and are in groups and you can always point out the pimp in the group. So, fun to see one not being able to chew gum on the street but being able to pay for sex!

Sights:

Good jungle tour. Little too touristy, but nice way to spend an afternoon and lots of special animals (tigers, monkeys, etc)

Accommodations:

The YMCA is in a central location and has a decent weight room. There are also several cheaper hostels up to 5-6 star hotels...among the nicest in the world.

Nightlife:
Lots of clubs with good music all over the place.

Restaurants:
Any kind of food you could imagine is here.

Other recommendations:
Great location being a 15 minute drive from the border of Malaysia
