Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay

changes over the decades, but none has been as
dramatic or controversial as the emergence of the
Esplanade complex, which officially opened in 2002. The

proposed way back in the 1970s, but the project’s radical
architecture was only unveiled in 1994, with work
beginning in 1996.

Raffles Landing Site and Boat Quay
Sir Stamford Raffles, founder of modern Singapore, was
believed to have first set foot here in 1819. This

statue which now stands outside the Victoria Theratre
Concert Hall. Across the river is Boat Quay with rows of
conserved warehouses which comes alive at night with
its riverside restaurants and pubs.
Singapore Flyer
The Singapore River was where our first immigrants
eked out a meagre living. It saw Singapore's transformation
from an obscure little fishing village to a great
seaport and modern metropolis famous for its skyscapers,
the Merlion and 'gastro-mania'.
