Helix Bridge ✨🧬

Helix Bridge is my favourite bridge in Singapore and I can’t believe it’s 12 years old because it was opened in 2010!

The bridge links Marina Centre with the Marina South, in tourists terms, it is the linkway between Marina Bay Sands/Art Science Museum/ Gardens By The Bay towards Esplanade/Singapore Flyer and other Marina Bay area hotels. 

Even in 2022, it still looks futuristic, as taken at night, it is illuminated by lights creating a special starry night experience. Due to the tropical climate in Singapore, there are partial shades and shelter to cover pedestrians from the heat. Take note that you will still get wet on a rainy day. 

The bride is 280m long and have about 4 viewing pods to allow visitors to get nearer to the waterfront. It is also curved, which during the construction period face many difficulties to make sure it works and it is safe.

There are coloured letters, c and g, as well as a and t on the bridge which are lit up at night in red and green represent cytosine, guanine, adenine and thymine, the four bases of DNA. #cityscapes
