“Sense & Sustainability”

From vertical greens that reach up to the sky, to underground spaces hundreds of metres deep, Singapore had to be creative in using our limited land space. With brilliant foresight, our city planners have designed Marina Bay over 40 years, to be the model for sustainable and liveable cities around the world. Observe how they have adopted environmentally friendly strategies and forged a sustainable future for generations of Singaporeans. Discover how Singapore can continue to remain a city of the future with deliberate urban planning and what we can do as citizens to contribute towards making Singapore one of the best cities to live in.
