This is my entry in the Cityscape Photography contest by 
This photo shows one small aspect of the pleasant cityscape that characterizes Singapore. (For one thing, Singapore provided me with that excellent "internal" frame for the photo.)
Several times a week, I’d cross this pedestrian bridge, which connects the western edge of Singapore’s Chinatown to the riverside at Clarke Quay, one of Singapore’s most vibrant nightlife areas.
Avoid noise and chaos
Although my condo was about 600 meters from the riverside, I could completely avoid streets and traffic for the whole route. I could walk the entire distance on parkside pathways, through a neighbourhood parkette, across an old-time plaza, and then over this and one other pedestrian bridge.
There are not many major cities in the world in which you can manage to avoid traffic and walk unimpeded for over half a kilometer in the heart of the downtown area – through lush greenery. In Singapore, however, there are many such places.
We’ve got you covered
One more interesting point; just like the 2 pedestrian bridges I crossed over on my way to the riverside, almost all such bridges are covered … just to protect residents like me from any sudden rainstorms.
That’s simply one minor example of how Singapore has created a very livable cityscape – and a very lovable one.
