People seem to find SG a bit boring. Well in terms of Luxury, SG rivals Dubai (maybe) but I consider HK is vastly more fun than both of them even though its dirtier, more polluted, older looking and so on. I love the Dubai metro and its really cool idea that they have a first class section - which is only like $7 for a full day.
Of course this all about the modern, developed world so I don't put it into the category of Amazing necessarily but they are all places everyone should visit.
The SG financial capital in Raffles Place is also like a modern day, advanced version of the Financial district in London. There's a real buzz there and just by standing in the middle of the square you can feel the pulse of Asia and how it is rising in the world.
