    Visited this bridge in March before Singapore locked down. The Esplanade bridge spans over 250 metres across the Singapore River and is one of many bridges around this area and the nearby Boat Quay. The great thing about this bridge is that it provides great views of the waterfront, Merlion Park and the Marina Bay.

    Singapore is so well laid out, and the Esplanade Brisge is no exception. The bridge is nice and wide, and easily accesible for everyone. It is a link between the Merlion & the Esplande Theatre. The views of teh city from here are also superb. If you are a tourist you must take the bridge to see a fantastic view of teh bay and city.

    Walking from the esplanade to the main central business district of singapore, you will either use this bridge or see this bridge. Very scenic and picturesque with good photo taking opportunities.

    Very nice place to take a stroll along given how scenic this place is. It’s pretty breezy at night and also not too hot in the evening. Plenty of shops selling beverages if you want a sippy sip. If it gets too hot or happens to rain, there are also shelters to hide under.

    One of the recently constructed bridges. One can get a good view of Marina Bay from here. Only problem is that it is constantly filled with tourists from all of Asia, so it's not entirely comfortable to take pictures without being stampeded over by them. Just walking distance to Merlion and Esplanade using this bridge.

    after visiting Merlion, we rest a bit at below of this bridge. There are some convenient stores and souvenirs located in the shady of the bridge.

    If you have visited the place in the day , recommend to come for the night view also . Spectacular view of Marina Bay and Fullerton Hotel from this bridge . Pictures will not do justice .

  • 5/5 Bent G. 1 year ago on Google • 196 reviews
    During my last visit to Singapore with my wife and son, we had the pleasure of seeing the iconic Esplanade Bridge. This vehicular bridge is located in the city's Civic District and connects the Marina Bay area to the central business district. We were amazed by the stunning views of the Singapore River and the city skyline from the bridge. It's no wonder that the bridge is often used for public events and is a popular spot for tourists to take photos. Overall, the Esplanade Bridge is a must-see landmark for anyone visiting Singapore and I highly recommend taking the time to check it out.

    The Esplanade Bridge is a vehicular and pedestrian bridge that span across Singapore River at its mouth. The Bridge offers a spectacular view of Marina Bay. The Esplanade Bridge also connect Esplanade Theatres to the Merlion Park enabling visitors a alternative access from Esplanade to the Merlion Park. The Esplanade Bridge was built to provide a faster access between Marina Centre and Shenton Way.

    The bridge was built to provide faster vehicular access between Marina Centre and the financial district of Shenton Way and to displace traffic from St Andrew's Road and Connaught Drive.[1] Construction of the bridge began in early 1994 and was completed in March 1997. Service 501 is the first bus route to pass by the Esplanade Bridge. On 10 July 1999, the right turn from Hill Street to Bras Basah Road is prohibited, and motorists had to use High Street and Parliament Place, together with the St Andrew's Road.[1] The main contractor was Obayashi Corporation while the street lamps were designed by Light Cibles. The bridge then blocked views of the Merlion statue from the Marina Bay waterfront, raising a need for the original Merlion statue to be relocated from the back to the front of the bridge.[2]

    Nice bridge to walk on. You get a picturesque view of the Marina Bay skyline but this place can be filled with a lot of tourists especially Chinese tourists that love to squeeze and push their way through to get the best shot of MBS.

  • 5/5 Devin Ryan R. 5 years ago on Google
    A beautiful place to visit, both during daytime and night. During the day, you'll get to see more of the surroundings and at night, you'll get to see the light show of the bridge and its surrounding buildings. There are also fireworks display sometimes.

    (Translated by Google) In 2015, east of the Esplanade Bridge, the Jubilee Bridge was built on the 50th anniversary of the state's independence, a pedestrian bridge that was designed to make it easier for tourists to cross the Singapore River between Marina Bay and the Finance District. You shouldn't visit both bridges as a tourist, but you can see them very well from the Merlion, and maybe you use them to cross the river mouth. (Original) Direkt östlich neben die Esplanade Bridge wurde 2015 zum 50. Jahrestag der Unabhängigkeit des Staats noch die seitlich stark gebogene Jubilee Bridge gebaut, eine Fußgängerbrücke, die den Touristen eine leichtere Überquerung des Singapore River zwischen Marina Bay und Finance District erlauben sollte. Eigens besuchen sollte man als Tourist beide Brücken nicht, aber man sieht sie sehr gut vom Merlion aus, und eventuell nutzt man sie ja auch zum Überqueren der Flussmündung.

    (Translated by Google) The length of Eslanade is 260m on the Singapore River mouth and was built to make it a more convenient path to the Shenton financial district in 1997. The bridge has a beautiful view, on days like independence or welcoming the new year. then this is the best place for you to watch the fireworks and feel the most busy. The best time to walk on the bridge is the evening or the evening. (Original) Chiều dài của Eslanade là 260m nằm trên cửa sông Singapore và được xây dựng nhằm tạo lối đi thuận tiện hơn tới khu tài chính Shenton vào năm 1997. Cây cầu có tầm nhìn cực đẹp, vào những ngày như độc lập hay đón chào năm mới thì đây là tụ điểm tuyệt vời nhất để bạn ngắm pháo hoa và cảm nhận không khi rộn rã nhất. Khoảng thời gian tuyệt nhất để dạo trên cầu là buổi chiều tà hoặc buổi tối.

    This bridge provides the best view of the marina bay sands and it never hurts that you esplanade theatres on your left and merlion park on your right. Also, if you can manage a group, go for a feery rode around the singapore river.
