These images are of the area around one of the barrages which has created Marina Bay. They show how the area has been developed as a recreation place for locals to enjoy. Like a number of aspects about Singapore, someone appears to have put a great deal of time and thought into its creation. And more to the point, acted on the results, to the potential benefit of a lot of people. (Thinks.....unlike Barangaroo......)
The only access to this area is by walking from Bayfront MRT or by managing to locate a somewhat obscure bus service from the Marina Bay area which, strangely, does not appear to operate on week-ends.
Devoid of shade-producing trees at this time, it can be rather hot on cloudless days but, on the plus side, there is usually a breeze blowing to aid with cooling, flying of kites and the making of dramatic wedding photos.
Satay By the Bay is the nearest 'hawkers' market if you are looking for food and, on the day I visited, was not over-run with customers. At least as far as I and the cook could determine.
