Singapore is a small country on a small island, but with over four million people it's a fairly crowded city and in fact second only to Monaco as the world's most densely populated country. The center of the city -- consisting roughly of Orchard, the Riverside and a chunk of Chinatown -- is known in acronym-loving Singapore as the CBD (Central Business District).

Riverside -- (also known as Civil District); Museums, statues
and theaters, not to mention restaurants, bars and clubs.

Orchard Road -- Miles and miles of shopping malls.

Bugis and Kampong Glam -- Bugis and Kampong Glam are Singapore's old Malay district, now largely taken over by mall-shopping, although Arab Street in the Kampong Glam area is well worth a visit for its eclectic mix of unique shops and restaurants.

Chinatown -- The area originally designated for Chinese settlement by Stamford Raffles. Now a Cantonese enclave in predominantly Hokkien Singapore.

Little India -- A piece of India to the north of the city core.

Balestier, Newton, Novena and Toa Payoh -- Budget accommodations and Burmese temples within striking distance of the center.

North and West -- The northern and western parts of the island, also known as Woodlands and Jurong respectively, form Singapore's residential and industrial hinterlands.

East Coast -- The largely residential eastern part of the island contains Changi Airport and many famous eateries. Katong is located in the East Coast and is famous for its Peranakan food, such as laksa. Joo Chiat has some well-restored Peranakan houses with characteristic intricate architecture. Also consists of Geylang Serai, the true home of Singapore's Malays.

Sentosa -- A separate island developed into a resort, Sentosa is the closest that Singapore gets to Disneyland. Singapore consists of 63 islands, including mainland Singapore. There are two man-made connections to Johor, Malaysia -- Johor-Singapore Causeway in the north, and Tuas Second Link in the west. Jurong Island, Pulau Tekong, Pulau Ubin and Sentosa are the largest of Singapore's many smaller islands.
