Check the weather city by city, starting with Singapore.
Singapore is a futuristic city-state at the crossroads of Southeast Asia, a mosaic of Chinese, Malay and Indian cultures. Legendary cleanliness, world-renowned street food (hawker centres), vertical gardens and Supertrees are the signature of this ultramodern, safe gem.
Singapore's botanical masterpiece with its glowing Supertrees, climate-controlled greenhouses (Cloud Forest and Flower Dome) and elevated walkways. An absolute must, especially at dusk during the Garden Rhapsody light show.
Highlights : Supertree Grove, Cloud Forest (greenhouse), Marina Bay Sands (skyline), ArtScience Museum.
Chinatown, Little India (Tekka), Kampong Glam (the Malay quarter) and Clarke Quay coexist just a few metro stops apart. Hindu temples, mosques, pagodas and street markets form the multicultural heart of Singapore.
Highlights : Little India (Tekka), Chinatown Heritage Centre, Sultan Mosque (Kampong Glam), Sri Mariamman Temple.
Hawker centres are covered, air-conditioned street food markets where dozens of cooks serve up specialities at low prices. Chicken Rice, Laksa, Char Kway Teow and Chilli Crab are legendary here. Singapore's hawker culture is recognised as UNESCO intangible cultural heritage.
Highlights : Maxwell Food Centre, Lau Pa Sat, Newton Food Centre, Old Airport Road Food Centre.
Sentosa resort island brings together beaches, a casino, Universal Studios and family attractions. Reachable on foot from Harbourfront, it offers a seaside escape in the heart of the metropolis.
Highlights : Universal Studios Singapore, S.E.A. Aquarium, Siloso Beach, Fort Siloso (WWII museum).
Singapore is one of the most expensive cities in Asia, but food at hawker centres remains very affordable. Accommodation is the biggest expense.
