22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Singapore’s architectural contrasts

Singapore is a fascinating city where the contrast between old and new architecture creates a dynamic urban landscape. The photo illustrates this: the historical buildings of the Asian Civilisations Museum and the Victoria Concert Hall are prominently featured in the foreground and middle ground, while the modern South Beach Complex stands tall in the background. This blend of old and new not only enhances Singapore’s visual appeal but also reflects its multicultural history and evolution. Walking through the streets, you can experience a seamless integration of heritage and modernity, where the charm of the past coexists with the vibrancy of the present, making Singapore a unique destination that honors its roots while embracing the future.
