Mount Faber, Elevated park in Bukit Merah, Singapore.

Mount Faber rises 105 meters above sea level, offering multiple observation points that overlook Singapore's southern coastline and harbor district.

Originally named Telok Blangah Hill, the area underwent substantial development in 1972 when the government invested funds to transform it into a recreational destination.

The mural wall at Faber Point depicts Singapore's transformation from a fishing village to an international center through detailed historical illustrations.

Visitors can reach Mount Faber through the Marang Trail, which extends 700 meters from the base near Seah Im Food Centre and requires 15 minutes to climb.

The park contains multiple raptor species, including Black Bazas, Oriental Honey Buzzards, and White-bellied Eagles that nest in the treetops.

Most instagrammable spots in Singapore

Singapore combines modern architecture with cultural diversity within a compact area, providing photographers with varied settings just a few subway stations apart. The city features futuristic sites such as the Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay, standing 25 to 50 meters tall (82 to 164 feet), Marina Bay Sands with its 200-meter (656-foot) high rooftop, and the Helix Bridge, a pedestrian walkway designed to resemble a DNA double helix. The historic districts contrast with these modern structures. Chinatown retains its Chinese temples and arcade houses, Little India its spice markets and colorful facades, while Haji Lane in Kampong Glam lines with independent boutiques and wall murals in a narrow alley. The Merlion Park at Marina Bay, with its 8.6-meter-long (28 feet) statue blending lion and fish, remains the most photographed symbol of the city-state. Sentosa’s beaches, accessible by cable car, add a coastal element to this dense urban landscape.
