Time for Marina Barrage

From evening strolls to lazy weekends, Marina Barrage, your latest urban reservoir encompasses them all.
This $226-million barrage located at Marina Channel is built to not only boost Singapore's water supply by 10 percent but also to prevent flood in low-lying areas.

Apart from its already obvious purposes, this barrage aims to be a lifestyle spot for all ages. Be it with your friends or loved ones, stroll down the 350m-long bridge with eight shady pavilions for all to enjoy the breeze at your face.

If you loathe the scorching sun penetrating through your skin, explore the Sustainable Singapore Gallery within the building, which has free guided tours through six interactive multimedia galleries with information on water and environmental issues.

However, if you are all braced up and yearning for a magnificent view of Marina Bay, pack your picnic basket as you rest and relax at the rooftop lawn, which sit 13m above ground.

If any of the above does not interest you, why not pop by for a quick bite with a view. The lips smacking delights located at Marina Barrage are our old school favourite - The 7th Story Restaurants and The Gallery Cafe.

Alternatively, why not head down to Safra Mt Faber this Saturday evening for live music performances by artistes such as ShiGGa Shay, Stitch, King Kong Jane and Jack & Rai.
