Boat Quay

Fullerton Hotel

This iconic 5-star hotel exists in what used to be the General Post Office Building that was originally commissioned in 1924 as an official building during the Colonial period. Given the rich history of the site, it is considered a national monument of Singapore. 

Merlion

Marina Bay Sands Resort

This world renowned resort houses the Marina Bay Sands SkyPark and the ArtScience Museum and is a staple of the Singapore skyline. Make sure to visit the SkyPark Observatory during your Singapore trip for some amazing birds-eye views of the Lion City. 

Esplanade

This uniquely shaped building (resembling a durian fruit) is a center of arts and theater in Singapore. It features a concert hall that accommodates 1,600 folks as well as a theater for plays that seats over 2,000. The building looks dazzling in the night, so try not to miss that if you can.
