Singapore is known for its amazing attractions, yummy halal food and plenty of shopping options! But besides the list of incredible things to do in Singapore, the city has also been placed among the world's best. Singapore has been ranked 7th on the World's Best Cities list, according to the latest report by Resonance Consultancy.

The report - called the World's Best Cities for 2021 - annually ranks cities with a population of over 1 million by looking at 25 factors and is considered as the world's most thorough city ranking. The report uses both key statistics and looks at online activity as well as reviews by people on platforms like Google, Facebook and Instagram. Besides looking at cities as places to live, work or visit, they also look at things like culinary experiences, attractions, museums, safety and even the mentions each city has on Instagram ?

For the 2021 list, 3 new factors were also added to look at how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the cities and how they have responded. The factors are: number of COVID-19 cases per million, unemployment rates and income inequality.

Singapore's Changi Airport also got recognition on the list, with mentions of Jewel's Rain Vortex, the world's tallest indoor waterfall as well as the canopy bridge and fog-shrouded glass walkway.

The report also describes Changi Airport as "a must-see attraction, one that receives millions of passengers a year but also lures locals with a bounty of designer shops, gardens, gourmet food and one-of-a-kind sights."
