Walking along the Singapore River takes you through shopping areas, restaurants right on the riverfront, gives you an impression of apartment blocks in Singapore while you can see many different bridges along the way.
Singapore River actually is not a mighty river like some giants in Asia, but it is the most important river of the city state. It is 11 km long, and its mouth was the location of old Singapore port. This was the place from which the city developed, and it still is the most expensive and prominent place of Singapore. The city developed around the port and along Singapore River, leading to a heavy increase of river traffic and the pollution of the river and its banks. The 1970s saw a major cleanup operation that had a major impact on the river: marine life returned, and the area became much more attractive.
