These are our top 10 things to do in Singapore.

The Lion City

To understand Singapore, start with a walk

along the banks of its river,

where the city was founded by the British East India company 200 years ago.

You'll see the shop houses and keys

that made an important trade hub between Europe and Asia,

as well as the skyscrapers of the financial district that

have recently made the city rich.

Walking in the sun is going to leave you parched so

head into the Raffles Hotel, a local icon named after

the founder of the city, and home of the Singapore Sling.

Sure, it's touristic, but it's the best place

to get a taste of British Singapore.

I'll take Singapore Sling, shaken, not stirred.

Number 3: China Town

Singapore might have been founded by the British, but

today three of every four SIngaporeans are of Chinese decent.

Despite Singapore's rapid development,

China Town has retained its unique character

through temples, bizarres and delicious restaurants.

China Town is cool, but don't overlook

Singapore's other ethnic neighborhoods.

Head to Little India for killer curries and

colorful temples,

or to Haji Street

the Malay quarter and one of Singapore's trendier neighborhoods.

Number 5: Hawker Centers

Singapore's ethnic diversity is reflected in its food,

which is best explored in informal food markets

called Hawker Center.

There's a ton of options, but Maxwell Food Center

is a great place to sample local favorites

like chile crab, Hainanese chicken rice

and nasi lemak

Number 6: the Southern Ridgeline. The food is

so good in Singapore ,you're guaranteed to pack on a few pounds.

Undo the damage with a trail run up the Southern Ridgeline,

a beautiful natural park that leads to the summit

of Mount Faber and a cable car to Sentosa Island.

Number 7: Sentosa Island

Now, Sentosa Island is not for everyone,

but it is where you're going to find all the resorts, rides,

and attractions.

Some are lame, but some are cool

like Universal Studios or

Southeast Asia Oceanarium, the largest in the world.

You can even dive underwater in these cool spacesuits.

So you can be like a "Starman."

And I'm floating in the most peculiar way.

If you prefer some more action, head down the street

to the Wavehouse, where you can learn the basics

of riding a standing wave, or

try your luck at getting barreled.

After that, dry off with iFly,

an indoor skydiving center that's

a guaranteed good time.

Number 9: Marina Bay Sands rooftop bar.

Before you leave Singapore, you've got to go here.

There's an infinity pool: there are cocktails with a view of the whole city

and some gold for your Instagram

You know you want that pic.

Lastly, finish your time in Singapore with a night out in Clarke Quay,

the redeveloped riverside area that's

turned former trading houses into trendy bars,

serving a young and sexy crowd.
