The Singapore River is Singapore's mother river. Early immigrants depended on it for trade and livelihood. The whole river is a few kilometers or so, which is far from the Pearl River in Guangzhou, but the clean water of the river can not be compared with that of the Pearl River. Walking along the river, you will pass many famous scenic spots and very distinctive buildings. For example, Fishtail Park, Jinsha Hotel, Ferris Wheel and so on. If you are afraid of walking too tired, you can also choose to boat in the upper reaches of the river. The opening time is the last vessel from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. It takes about half an hour and the fare is 15 Singapore dollars for adults. There are several wharfs (Clara, Barge and Robertson wharfs) along the banks of Singapore River. We purchased Panoramic Singapore (400 yuan), including Universal Studios, Ferris Wheels and other attractions. Cruise ship projects are also included. Exchange tickets at Kra Pier. Take the subway NE line and get off at Clarke Quary. Personally, I would recommend coming to this cruise ship in the evening. Because Krakow Wharf is quieter in the daytime and more prosperous in the evening. Lights are red, wine is green, and the chips are interlaced. It's very lively. If it's a day cruise, it's hot! In the evening, you can first see the true face of both sides of the Straits, then go to the shopping mall opposite Krakow Wharf (famous meat and bone tea, after the shopping mall) for a meal, and then start to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the cross-strait lights at the beginning of the cruise ship, which is really praiseworthy. Cruise Line: Clara Wharf - Robertson Wharf - Fish Liontail Park - Binhai Bay - Jinsha Hotel - Ferris Wheel. Every time we go to a scenic spot, the boat will play a brief history video about the scenic spot, but it is in full English with no subtitles. As we arrived at the Ferris wheel at the next stop, we got off the ship halfway. But in fact, only a few stations can get off. Before boarding the ship, ask the attendant clearly, otherwise the ship will sail back to the Kra dock all the time. They are very friendly and will remind us when they arrive. This is a tourist attraction that can learn about Singapore's history and experience its busy nightlife. It is worth recommending.

    Book in advance, queue up to scan QR-code to change tickets, and then wait in line to board the ship. Route: From Clark Pier, the whole journey is about 40 minutes, providing English guide explanation, and starting along the Singapore River, first enjoy the special bar on the second bank of Clarke Pier on the riverside. After the Raffles Landing Site, the Floatton Hotel, Merlion Park, the Science Museum, the Marina Art Center, the Marina Bay Sands Hotel, and the entire harbor circle back to the dock.

    This is a wonderful place to be in and has lots to offer tourists. You could have a cold beer and some snacks while enjoying the breathtaking scenery overlooking the Singapore River. This place comes alive at night. Get lost in the vibrancy and beauty of the city lights.

    The historic houses have been renovated and protected as premium restaurants, bars and more. Today, small motor boats travel daily to the Singapore River, carrying visitors to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the river and learn about Singapore's history. Recently, the government built a floodgate at the mouth of the river, transforming the Singapore River into a reservoir to provide drinking water for residents.

    The river's banks gradually developed into Singapore's commercial hub. Under Raffles' tax exemption policy, the port at the mouth attracted merchant ships from far and near. Merchants built rows of warehouses on the river bank, and these historic houses have been renovated and protected as premium restaurants, bars, etc.
