Most Beautiful City In Asia

In the world rankings, Singapore almost made it into the top ten, settling in at rank number 11.

However, if you were to compare it to just cities within Asia, we’re number one.

Yes, guys, we’ve triumphed over cities like Tokyo (18th) and Hong Kong (24th).

In Southeast Asia, Hanoi (37th) and Bangkok (43rd) were the other two cities to make it to the list.

Which is really amazing, when you consider that we’re competing against the city of Dubrovnik

And the ancient fortresses of Croatia

Guess the power of Jewel Changi definitely helped us out, huh?

You can find the full list here.

Other Beautiful Places in S’pore

If you find yourself ignited with a passion to see Singapore once again, and you don’t know where to go, here’s a list to help you out:

Jurong Lake Gardens

It might be new, and you cannot take a good picture without squatting down cuz the plants are still growing, Jurong Lake Gardens is a hidden gem in the west.

According to a fellow writer who’ve been there, you’ll feel like you’re in Korea when you’re walking among the paths.

Yishun Dam

Looking for some nice #IG-worthy scenery to add to your gram?

Then you can’t miss out on Yishun Dam, a popular spot where you can get amazing pictures like this

Located nearby Seletar Aerospace Park, it’s popular with residents in the North (Winter is coming) for picnics, barbeques and casual chilling.

These are just the tip of the iceberg.

Chinatown has beautiful wall murals for you to take #OOTDs and is an amazing place for street photography.

Punggol Waterway Park is great for exercising and cycling, and even better for a fun stroll between friends and family.

And so much more.

So if you’ve always thought Singapore is boring and ugly, think again. The rest of the world seems to think we’re pretty good.
