Shenton Way

Walk Shenton Way for a close look at Singapore's financial district streetscape. The attraction is the contrast between its broad public street and the office towers lining it.

Shenton Way

Why go

This road crosses land reclaimed from the former Telok Ayer Basin. Opened in 1951, it became a commercial address as offices rose from the 1970s. Walking its public frontage gives that change a physical shape; pair it with nearby Raffles Place for a fuller view of the central business district.

What to look for

  • Office towers line both sides of Shenton Way.
  • The road occupies ground once covered by the Telok Ayer Basin.

Useful to know

  • Explore the public street on foot; check individual buildings before planning an indoor stop.
  • Combine the walk with Raffles Place rather than making this a stand-alone half day.
