Singapore
The city is organised into distinct quarters — the colonial civic district, Chinatown, Little India, Kampong Glam and the reclaimed Marina Bay — each walkable and linked by metro. Hawker centres are the cheapest and best eating. Three days covers the gardens, two or three quarters and one island or reserve.
