Singapore
Located on the
southern tip of the Malaysian Peninsula, this island, country and
city is a melting pot for Asians. Jungle and swamp has been cleared
to make way for a super metropolis. Better known as a major hub for
finance and investment, Singapore is a peaceful haven in an
unsettled region and very underrated stand-alone tourist
destination.
