City in a garden — futuristic skyline, hawker food, Universal Studios and multicultural magic
Singapore is proof that a city can be both ultramodern and deeply human at the same time. This tiny island city-state manages to blend Chinese, Malay, Indian, and British influences into a culture that's entirely its own. The Gardens by the Bay's Supertrees light up at night. Sentosa Island has Universal Studios, beach clubs, and cable cars. Chinatown, Little India, and Arab Street are vibrant cultural enclaves. And the food — the hawker centres at Lau Pa Sat and Chinatown Complex serve some of the world's best street food at incredibly affordable prices.
Singapore has a tropical climate year-round with temperatures of 25–32°C. There's no single best season but February to April tends to have less rain. The peak tourist months are June–July and December (school holidays). December has the Christmas street light displays. June has the Singapore Food Festival. November–January can be wetter.
