Cavenagh Bridge

Cavenagh Bridge is a historic suspension bridge located in Singapore's Civic District. While smaller than its neighboring Anderson Bridge, it is no less impressive in terms of its historical significance and beauty. Constructed in 1869, the bridge features a simple design with wire cables and steel structures. During our visit to Singapore in April, my wife, son, and I had the opportunity to see Cavenagh Bridge up close and were impressed by its unique design and the views it offered of the city. Whether crossing the bridge by foot or simply admiring it from afar, it is definitely worth a visit for anyone interested in Singapore's rich history and architecture. Highly recommended! #citywalk
