 THE
MOST BEAUTIFUL
PLACES
TO
VISIT
IN
SINGAPORE

Merlion Park
 Merlion Park is a famous Singapore landmark and a major tourist attraction,
located near One Fullerton, Singapore, near the Central Business District. The Merlion
is a mythical creature with a lion's head and the body of a fish that is widely used as a
mascot and national personification of Singapore.

CHIJMES

The go-to destination for

those Instagram-worthy
snaps, especially if you want
a large background that is
beautiful from so many
angles. CHIJMES has always
been popular for its evocative
architecture and white-
plastered walls, which makes
this place extremely
photogenic.

Changi Boardwalk
Located at the easternmost tip of
Singapore, this locale offers some
fascinating sights along the way. For one,
there’s a whole host of giant and old
trees along its 2.2 km distance. Located right by the sea, you get some splendid
sunrise and sunsets that shine upon a vast open area. Next to the sea is greenery,
which makes this a particularly tranquil and scenic part of Singapore.

The Pinnacle
This rather resplendent public
housing estate has won numerous
awards for its architecture and it’s not
hard to see why. It is spectacularly
tall, even compared to other housing
estates and its scale is amplified by
the vertical shape and slim
appearance. There are two sky
bridges used for jogging and other
activities and it offers a beautiful view
of the city center. It’s also especially
popular during the National Day
Parades, when the top-floor viewing

gallery is publicly balloted for those

interested.

Toa Payoh Dragon

Playground
For those born in Singapore,
especially before the 2000s, this
playground was a common sight all
around the ubiquitous HDB estates. The decorative playgrounds with wild primary hues
and iconic animals, both real and mythological, were a welcome pastime for young
kids. This is one of the few that has survived the constant redevelopment that is
pervasive across Singapore, and has become iconic with the large dragon head and its
body, which is a type of trail for kids to crawl through.

Marina Bay Sands Sky Park Observation Deck

One of the best things about
Singapore is the view. It changes all the
time when new buildings are constructed,
so every view and visit is different and
offers a unique experience. Sky Park is
probably one of the best views you will
have, and a chance to see a vista as wide
and diverse as possible from the shipping
lanes off the coast to the straddling
skyscrapers all abound and the
magnificent marvel that is Gardens by the
Bay. A splendid opportunity to
breathe in Singapore at its most
diverse and epic proportions at
what is arguably its historic core.

Punggol
Waterway Park
The transformation of new
housing estates has brought out
some creative endeavors and this
riverside park is one such attempt.
Here, a man-made waterway runs right through the center of the park while straddled
on its sides with tracks, parks and boardwalks, which makes this one of the more
ambitious parks by encompassing multiple purposes in a limited area. Though man-
made, this has become very popular for its aesthetically calm appearance, the water
adding serenity, a rarity in an otherwise crowded nation.

Henderson Waves

Henderson Waves is part of the

Southern Ridge, a walking trail that
connects the various parks in the southern
ridge of Singapore. The bridge is lauded
as it’s striking both visually and
aesthetically in terms of how well it blends
with the surrounding flora and fauna. The
highest pedestrian bridge in Singapore
also offers stunningly beautiful panoramic
views of lush forest and the skyline as far
as the eye can see.
