Singapore Central Business District
Singapore is such as busy city that it is very difficult some place where you can relax. One of my favorite places to hang out was at the Marina Bay. It is now much more than it used to be and it is much more high end than before. However, I didn’t needed to spend anything to hang out here. I love the promenades which they have built here and just allows people to stop and just hang around. I like how you get a good view of a lot of places. From the Esplanade, you can see the Marina Bay Sands and the central business district. From the Merlion park, you can see the Esplanade as well. All of these places are well lit at night I think it is the best time to visit.

Singapore has made a very big push to be an international city. I think for the most part is has worked. It has become an magnet for professionals around the region to the point that a large percentage of the population of the country are migrants. This has not gone without impact to the local population and there have been pockets of resentment towards foreigners. Still it is a city I have spent a good chunk of my life in and I think it has been very kind to me. I know I will keep visiting this place whenever I am in the region.
