Daily Briefing: Botanic Gardens named World Heritage Site; Singapore has world’s third-best skyline

And see this creepy tour of Old Changi Hospital.

  • According to real estate management firm Emporis, Hong Kong, with 7,794 buildings and 133,531 points, has the world's best skyline, followed by New York City, Singapore, Moscow, and Seoul. Read more here.

  • The World Heritage Committee meeting in Bonn also granted the status to two sites in Iran -- the troglodyte settlements of Maymand and the ancient city of Susa -- as well as Singapore's Botanical Gardens and the Great Burkhan Khaldun Mountain sacred landscape in Mongolia. Read more here.

You might have heard of them from friends during your NS days, or spoke of them yourself over the campfire at school camps. The scariest part, of course, is that no one really knows if the stories are true. Find out more here.
