I live in Bangkok and love it dearly but Singapore is special in it's own way. If the city is what it is, it's probably because of souls like you relishing it's differences.

Two examples I know of - an old kampong tucked away behind a small hill in the heart of Yishun - not very friendly folks, but interesting nonetheless. Another is the winding roads and old bungalows surrounding the British Club in the Bukit Timah area. Both are worth a visit :) Perhaps not quite in the same vein, but related (in my mind at least).
