During our day in Singapore, we found ourselves mostly downtown by the riverside. We took a really nice tour of the river. The water was a bit questionable. but the sights along side were neat.
The tourboat noses right up to the stairs going down to the water alongside the riverwall. You step onto the bow and into the seating area. Ours was more open topped.
The British style shops line the outside of the riverside street. Right on the riverside is a string of outdoor restaurants. Of course, modern office buildings right behind the 100andsome year old British buildings.
One of several bridges from the British era crossing the river.
At the mouth of the Singapore River. A Merlion (body of a fish and head of a lion), Esplanade Bridge, and The Supreme Court building (saucer shaped roofline). I forget what the green domed building is.
Clarke Quay, a shopping and dining strip along the river
