Perhaps less explored than Singapore's more tourist-worn trails, the corridor stretching from Queenstown to the **Singapore River** holds a quiet richness that rewards those who slow down and look closely. Starting at **Queenstown** , we cross over the bridge and into the greenery of the **Park Connector**, tracing a path that weaves between the old and the new. Along the way, we pass the serene **Church of the Good Shepherd** and stroll through the tranquil **Alexandra Canal Linear Park** — a pocket of calm in the heart of the city. From there, we ascend to the iconic **Sky Terrace at Dawson HDB** — one of Singapore's most celebrated public housing developments, soaring **47 storeys high** with sweeping views that reframe the city entirely. A true testament to how Singapore has reimagined everyday living. Rejoining the **Park Connector**, we continue past the historic **Masjid Jamek** before arriving at the beloved **Zion Food Court** famous for its Char-Kway-Teow — a perfect pitstop for a taste of local Singapore hawker delicacies. Then, the walk takes on a new character as we enjoy our evening stroll along the **Singapore River**, one of the nation's most storied waterways. We follow the river's gentle bends, crossing the elegant **Jiak Kim Bridge**, pass the **Rainbow Bridge** before our walk concludes at the vibrant **Clarke Quay** — where history, food, and the city's pulse all come together at the water's edge. This is a walk of contrasts: lush park connectors and towering HDB sky gardens, quiet places of worship and buzzing riverside promenades, heritage and modernity side by side. Come discover a side of Singapore many pass through but few truly see. **Event Details:** Limited to 24 members.
