Did you ever go to a city that was very different than you imagined and surprised you positively? If yes which city was it and why did it surprise you?
For me it was Brasov in Romania. It was more beautiful than I had expected and really liked the vibes of this medieval city.
Singapore sounds like a really cool, safe, clean, organized, and hi-tech city, but their laws and enforcement seems a bit extreme to my American self. I both want to visit and am scared of visiting.
