SG-13778

Sitting on the background of the Singapore River is the Esplanade. The Esplanade is well-known for the very interesting design and there is a whole trial of "nicknames" given to it. The most famous being "The Durian" Taxi drivers in Singapore would know if you decide to tell them that you want to get to "The Durian". Great place to watch world class performances. In the near future, the waterfront would boost a nice view of the marina sands casino and resorts. Visit the website here.

This postcard shows the very colourful part of the Singapore River, Clarke Quay.

Also, be sure to take one of the river rides to catch a glimpse of Singapore skyline from the Singapore River.

To catch a good view Clarke Quay, you can visit one of the food outlets located inside "The Central" Shopping center. Dine away with an awesome view.

This is the Navy Pier, designed for shipping and entertainment, was opened in 1916 and was, at that time, the world's largest pier. Turned over to military use during both world wars, it slipped into decline for many years; but from the 1970s to 1990s underwent a dramatic transformation standing today as one of Chicago's finest entertainment and convention centres.
