The modern architecture of this bridge leads the eye to an iconic view of Singapore's skyline. Minutes away from beautiful cathedrals, museums, shopping centers and food streets selling popular local delights, it's a must-see spot!

How to get there

This image was taken from Esplanade Drive Road, looking onto Esplanade Bridge and the Esplanade Drive Underpass.
From the Esplanade Station metro (via Circle Line), you’ll find the sign "Esplanade — Theaters on the Bay" above the gantry near Exit A/B/D. After exiting the station, you’ll see two flights of escalators in front of you. Take the escalators up four flights until you get to CityLink underground mall. Then, turn right, and walk straight until you reach the end of the mall. From there, take the escalator down on your right and make a left onto a long underpass to Esplanade Theatre.
If you find yourself greeted by the water fountain and Esplanade Forecourt Garden, you’re on the right track. Turn left and walk in the direction of Jubilee Bridge and Merlion Pass for about 50m. You’ll find Esplanade Drive road on your right. Cross the road midway and stop at the small road median where you'll find the exact spot I stood for this composition.
