Boat Quay in Singapore is a rich and vibrant area that houses an impressive range of shopping and entertainment options. Located adjacent to the financial district of Singapore it is also one of the most popular places to for both expatriates and professionals to relax and unwind after a hard days work.
Originally started as an important sea port, it was the sight of numerous sea faring traders and the large scale hustle and bustle of unloading and loading of the ships that were docked here. Today with its decrease in importance as a harbour it has become a large melting pot of numerous restaurants and other entertainment options.
Visitors to this vibrant location can expect to find an impressive array of restaurants and pubs which makes it an ideal destination to visit when looking for a night out. Chic Cafes, high end restaurants, pubs, bars, dance clubs and more are on offer in this entertainment venue.
When it comes to pubs a good deal of variety is on offer. Harry's Bar presents a sense of colonialism with its strange shuttered windows. It also features a jazz band that gives a relaxing and serene environment. Penny Black's is an English pub that is strongly decorated with Victoria era décor whilst Molly Malone's Irish Pub provides an ideal gathering spot for sports enthusiasts.
For dance lovers two of the most popular spots are Buzz Entertainment Bar and Centre 360. Both are open throughout the week and offer the perfect place to unleash your dance moves.
The area today is one of the most picturesque in Singapore today and offers fantastic views of the Singapore River as well as the Colonial district. The entire Boat Quay area is beautiful especially at night and is a sight that should not be missed. It is for this reason that is featured on many of the post cards that are available in the country.
