The Singapore river is located at the central region in the southern part of Singapore. The Singapore River is 11km long from its source at Kim Seng Bidge, but the waterway extends, as Alexandra Canal, as far as the junction of Commonwealth Avenue. Here threr is a break until North Buona Vista Road where Sungei Ulu Pandan starts and flows into Sungei Pandan which in turn flows into the sea at West Coast Park.

The river is use for side-seeing and tourist attraction. Tourists came to the Singapore River to shop and many exciting activities. they can have a ride at the Clark Quay and we can see the surroundings. Nearby, there's also museum and small cafe that they can visit. In the past, the Singapore River is use for trading. Small ships came to trade.

In the past, the river is dirty and contaminated. the small ship also cannnot came in and trade cause of less area.
