Items related to Walking Tour, Singapore: Sketches of the Country's...
Singapore is a cosmopolitan city with towering skyscrapers and state-of-the-art buildings. Nestled within its modern architecture are vestiges of its British colonial past and its rich cultural history. From its sparkling new waterfront to its quaint shops and from its temples to its mosques and churches, Singapore is as multifarious architecturally as it is culturally. Architect G Byrne Bracken captures with its sketches the unique diversity that defines Singapore. Covering favourite places such as Chinatown, the Civic District and Orchard Road, this charming sketch-cum-guidebook will enrich your understanding of Singapore. This revised edition includes new drawings and texts for several sights in Singapore including Esplanade Theatres on the Bay and One Fullerton. Pertinent data such as phone numbers and URL addresses has also been dated. Three new maps have also been added to this new edition.
