    This is an interesting and very artistic piece of architecture in Singapore.

    If you are coming from the Marina Bay Sands, you'll need to cross this bridge to get to the famous Merlion Park.

    It’s hot and sticky but it is well worth it for the views!

    The bridge is so unique it’s great to see the architecture. It offers lovely views of Singapore.

    Well worth the effort!

    This is the oldest bridge in Singapore. It is well maintained and a convenient route to visit the sights on foot.

    Jubilee Bridge is a pedestrian bridge in Singapore that connects the Merlion Park to the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort. The 220-meter-long bridge offers beautiful views of the city skyline and the Marina Bay waterfront, and is a popular attraction for both locals and tourists. It is easily accessible via public transportation and is open 24 hours a day.

    It's just a bridge, but you'll probably pass it on the way to Esplanade park or Merlion. It has nice views of the Victoria Theatre & Concert Hall on the other side

    Beautiful views especially at night. Handy crossing for us. Good walking path and seemed like a lot of people were using it to miss routes that was a little more crowded. Traffic noise seemed much less to us and easy to stop and take in view and photos

    Sunday 20th October and we were walking to the Singapore Flyer along the Singapore River and we came across this walkway.

    The Queen Elizabeth Walk located within the Esplanade Park and is between the historic Anderson and modern Jubilee Bridges.

    The walk commemorates the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953 .

    There are a number of landmarks and points of interest, including, the Tan Kim Seng Fountain, the Lim Bo Seng Memorial, the Makan Angin Statue and Rising Moon Sculpture and more. The Theatres by the Bay are a feature along the way.

    Another nice place to walk along in Singapore.

    A long road that links many dog rent areas. From new to old and local to tourist. So much to see along with shops, bars, hawkers, hotels and restaurants

    Rather than catch the shuttle from the ticket office to the Dome, walk and spend a few minutes enjoying the this lake. Beautiful sculptures.

    This is a historic old bridge in Singapore dating to 1929 and replacing the original built in 1862 and named after the Lord James Bruce Elgin, the Governor-General of India (1862–1863). The earlier bridge replaced a couple of timber bridges, the earlier built in 1822 on instructions of Raffles. It is an attractive box girder construction with cast iron lamps for illumination.

    This bridge is worth a quick visit if you are in the area. The colors do not appear as bright in person as they do in the photos. A bit far from the south end of Singapore where all the main hub is. Not worth traveling for

    The Sheares bridge curves over Marina Bay - there are two portions, the first parallel to the Helix pedestrian bridge (overlooking Marina Bay Sands) and the second, crossing over Gardens by the Bay. The bridge used to be part of the East Coast Parkway highway, but the highway is now diverted and the bridge is part of Sheares Avenue now. It's a little bit of a scramble up to the bridge (you can access it either from the city side, or from Gardens by the Bay East), but once up there, spectacular views over Marina Bay. Approaching from Tanjung Rhu side, you get different views. Once on the bridge, you can't cross over the lanes of traffic (obviously!), so decide which side you want oogle before climbing. For walking directions, go to Wikiloc and google "mostlyharmless" for trail maps. Don't go when the sun is up: there is no shade, tons of concrete and you will likely vanish in a puff of superheated steam.

    Connecting Marina Bay Sands with Gardens by the Bay, Lions Bridge enables easy access for pedestrians between the two iconic landmarks and also provides you with wonderful views all around.

    Sunday 20th October and we took the Singapore River Tour which wound it's way along the River.

    We travelled under numerous bridges, including this one, as we visited the Quays and places of interest and attractions along the way.

    The Bridge, a beam-structure and was completed in 1889.

    It is located in Clarke Quay and spans over the Singapore River and links Clarke Quay to Swissôtel Merchant Court. It is used by pedestrians and cyclists to cross

    It is also known as Kampong Malacca Bridge. Was also known as the Green Bridge because of the colour it was painted.

    There is a popular story that says the bridge got its name because in the past, labourers and boat people gathered there to listen to to storytellers and to read. The reality is is was named in honour of William Henry Macleod Read, a merchant and politician.

    It is simply a lovely walk along the Singapore River with its fourteen bridges across it.
    One of the bridges is called the Pulau Saigon Bridge beside the Warehouse Hotel. It has an interesting name and this new 43m-long bridge was constructed in 1997. It is 400m away from the original Pulau Saigon Bridge. The new Pulau Saigon Bridge links Saiboo Street to Havelock Road. There is a granite pedestrian walkway as well as a 60m-long pedestrian underpass with colourful murals.
    The original Pulau Saigon Bridge was built in 1890, and demolished in 1986 as it blocked the development of the Central Expressway.
    This bridge is named as Pulau Saigon Bridge as there was a small triangular island ( Pulau Saigon ) in the middle of the river long ago. In 1991, the island was merged with the river bank, forming the land on which River Place condominium stands today.
