  • Must Visit Attractions in Singapore"
    "Must Visit Attractions in Singapore" Created by: Cityseeker 16 Locations Bookmarked Merlion Park "Singapore's National Emblem" Standing guard at the mouth of the Singapore River is the Merlion, a mythical beast that is a cross between a fish and a lion. The fish symbolizes Singapore's close association with the sea while the lion head refers to the legendary sighting of a lion during the discovery of ancient Singapore. Created in 1972 as a tourism icon, the Merlion is especially by Graham-H attractive in the evenings when it is illuminated and spouts water from its mouth. Today, it has moved 120 meters (393 feet) away from its original spot, adjacent to One Fullerton. A stroll through Merlion Park yields great views of Singapore's colonial district. +65 6736 6622 1 Fullerton Road, Singapore Marina Bay Sands Skypark "Experience Singapore from New Heights" A true marvel of engineering designed by the famous architect Moshe Safdie, the Marina Bay Sands Skypark is an open-air viewing deck perched 200 meters (656.168 feet) atop the Marina Bay Sands Hotel. This deck, shaped like a ship, almost seems to go against the law of gravity as it stretches on the 57th story above the hotel tower. The panoramic views by Sarah_Ackerman from of Singapore are staggering, and on a clear day, far-off islands belonging New York, USA. to Malaysia and Indonesia can be seen. The Skypark is the size of three football fields and also contains lush tropical gardens, souvenir stands and gourmet restaurants. Its main attraction is a spectacular infinity pool that seems as if it meets thin air at one of its longer edges.

  • Understanding User Needs
    DESIGN & BEST PRACTICES 76 Adding Value to Parks Through Understanding User Needs Adding Value to Parks Through Understanding User Needs Text by Victor Tan Images as credited For city dwellers who live in countries endowed with scenic countrysides and landscapes, some travelling would get them away from the urban surroundings. In Singapore, visiting parks is perhaps the most practical way of staying close to nature. The presence of parks contributes to the quality of life in different ways. Besides the environmental and ecological benefits, parks bring notable social and psychological benefits to city dwellers, and are increasingly recognised as an important component of a liveable urban environment. While such benefits can be generalised, a park is seldom the same to two different park users. In fact, a park is almost never designed to cater to a single group of users, but rather, planned to cater to a diverse group of park users within its population catchment. Sometimes, park design is also influenced by its inherent environ- mental, social or heritage features. However, it is rare for post-design and post-construc- tion studies to be conducted to evaluate if the original design intents of parks have been met through park usage and user perception studies, largely because landscape architects are seldom ABOvE Tree-top Walk in Central Catchment Nature Reserve (Photo: National Parks Board, Singapore). involved in the post-construction management opposite, top LEFT & RIGHT West Coast Park (Photos: National Parks Board, Singapore). of parks. opposite, Bottom Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden in Singapore Botanic Gardens (Photo: National Parks Board, Singapore).

  • Media Advisory Refreshed Surrender Chambers to Reopen with Free Admission, As Part of Fort Siloso Enhancements
    Media Advisory Refreshed Surrender Chambers to reopen with free admission, as part of Fort Siloso enhancements Fort Siloso’s main entrance shifts to Skywalk for better accessibility New self-guided walking trails for closer look at Fort’s history SINGAPORE, 5 JUNE 2017 – To mark the 75th anniversary of the fall of Singapore during World War II (WWII), the revamped Surrender Chambers at Fort Siloso will re-open on 8 June 2017 with a refreshed exhibition and free admission, marking the completion of a three-month redevelopment of the Fort to allow locals and tourists to enjoy greater guest experiences and develop a deeper understanding of Singapore’s history. Among various highlights, the refreshed exhibition will feature interactive story-telling through enhanced graphics, visual and audio elements integrated with the iconic waxworks of Japanese and British soldiers at the surrender ceremony in 1942. Up to 15 guests will move through the exhbition area for a 15-minute tour guided by audio and visual effects. Around the Fort, signages have also been refreshed to improve wayfinding for guests, and facilitate self-guided tours as guests explore Singapore's only preserved coastal fort. Other key enhancements at Fort Siloso include the strengthening of accessibility through a relocation of its main visitor entrance. Guests will now start their Fort Siloso exploration via the scenic Skywalk, located at the start of Fort Siloso Road, with easy access via Sentosa buses, the intra-island Sentosa Line of the Singapore Cable Car Sky Network, and Siloso Beach Trams. Prior to the redevelopment, the Fort’s main entrance had been located at the deeper end of Fort Siloso Road.

The convent, established in 1854 in central Singapore, is now the ‗premier lifestyle destination‘, CHIJMES. I show that the Sisters were early providers of social services and girls‘ education, with an orphanage, women‘s refuge and schools for girls. They survived the turbulent years of the Japanese Occupation of Singapore and adapted to the priorities of the new government after independence, expanding to become the largest cloistered convent in Southeast Asia.
