What is downtown like in in Singapore?

Singapore is a city unlike any other. Although often affectionately referred to as the “Little Red Dot”, I feel that the term “Garden City” would be more representative of our small but diverse country. We Singaporeans love our flora and fauna, so much so that approximately 56% of our landmass is covered by plants! Even in the hectic business epicentre, look to the horizon and one will not be disappointed with the greenery that is so prevalent. Besides being known for being a clean and green “Garden City”, Singapore is also well known for our food! Having a multiracial, multicultural society naturally brings a rich and diverse selection of food from different cuisines. Living in Singapore, one would never have a lack of choice of food! With the help of urban planning, our different cultures have been brought together under one roof in what we call “Hawker Centres” and it is in these places where one can find a wide range of food.
