Things to do in Singapore, Singapore: The Best Sights & Landmarks

May 13, 2022 Diedre Savory

The Singapore cityscape looks like it was ripped from the pages of a science fiction comic book. If you’re hungry for a true Singapore experience, sample the myriad street foods or take a cultural cooking class. The Botanic Gardens and the Gardens By the Bay offer a slice of horticultural heaven, and the observation deck of the Sands SkyPark makes you feel like you’re high above the clouds. The banks and walkways along the Singapore River bustle with local activity.

Visiting this place both in the day and in the night gives you a sense of accomplishment. In the day you can walk along the waterfront and snap some nice souvenir pictures of the Singapore Icon, The White Merlion overflowing water splashing into the sea. Along the waterfront are food joints and drinks cafes. There are quite a nice selection of food and drinks including Seafood. In the night, you will see a variety of beautiful colourful Merlion depicting various Singapore Places Of interest in the form of light rays shining on the Beautiful Merlion. It is definitely cooler walking along the waterfront and enjoying the night scenes around it, including getting ready your camera for some nice shots of the surrounding sceneries from the Waterfront. Hope you have A great time there. Ad.

Esplanade Bridge

Reviewed By macedonboy - Glasgow, United Kingdom

This bridge spans over 250 metres across the Singapore River and is one of many around this area and the nearby Boat Quay. The great thing about this bridge is that it provides great views of the waterfront, Merlion Park and the Marina Bay. The other great thing is that there is a pedestrian and cyclist bridge that runs alongside it called the Jubilee bridge. Much narrower than the Esplanade Bridge, the views are just as good.

Jubilee Bridge

Reviewed By GroverR - Pensacola, United States

This is an amazing pedestrian bridge that elegantly curves and provides you with the best views of Marina Bay whether the Merlion, Sands, downtown skyline or the waterfront. Singapore has so many pedestrian bridges but this may be my favorite. The views are simply incredible and the pictures won't do it justice.
