Architectural landmarks include the lotus-inspired ArtScience Museum, the DNA-shaped Helix Bridge, and the "durian" domes of the Esplanade. Beyond the city center, the list covers Sentosa’s Tiger Sky Tower, the elevated nature trails of the Southern Ridges, and the world’s tallest public housing at The Pinnacle@Duxton.
