Merlion Park

When it comes to Singaporean icons, the Merlion - made up of half lion and half fish - is one of the most significant and recognisable. The statue was first unveiled and placed at the mouth of the Singapore River and opened to the public in September 1972 by then Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, to welcome all visitors to Singapore. The Merlion has since been relocated in 2002 to its present spot. Whether you're looking to celebrate your heritage, or your time spent here, the Merlion Park, is a great way to give guests a glimpse of Singapore.

Clifford Pier

The former landing point of our forefathers, Clifford Pier at The Fullerton Bay Hotel has now been transformed into a snazzy venue offering a smorgasbord of different cuisines and entertainment. Its pristine interiors, symmetrical and graphic structures offer many angles for fabulous pictures, too.

Victoria Theatre and Victoria Concert Hall

Built in 1905, the building's Palladian-style architecture and clock tower has made it one of the more popular places for dates, and photo shoots.

National Gallery Singapore

The former Supreme Court Building is yet another structure that boasts an imposing Palladian structure, with its dome, columns, and sweeping steps at its entrance. Its interiors, which boast modern furnishings, are just as striking.
