TODAY in Singapore, I am amazed by how green and plush the place is. The drive from the airport is quite pretty with green roadsides and lots of shade trees.
It is of course a very planned, landscaped city, but it makes for a nice, comfortable place that offers shade and flowers all around!
It is not at all as dense as Hong Kong (of course) although there are about 4.5 million people on about half as much land! And so far, not one person has bumped into me!!
There is a nice river with a cute riverfront with chi chi restaurants and bars housed in colonial-style remnants of the past, but now with waterfront seating!
There are high-end malls and shops and the whole place is quite clean (of course).
Maybe the most noticeable thing here, though, is the apparent diversity: Indians, Chinese, Malay, Indonesians, Westerners... Different faces everywhere. I like that!
