1-Altitude Gallery offers best view of Singapore


We have written about 1-Altitude before. The rooftop bar here is the place I take my guests to see Singapore from above instead of more known observation points such as Marina Bay Sands SkyPark Observation Deck or Singapore flyer. I did not know that the very same place also operates as an observation point under the name of 1-Altitude Gallery.

1-Altitude Gallery stands at the peak of 282 meters and boasts a spectacular 360-degree bird-eye view of Singapore. It is at the top of the highest building in Singapore : 1 Raffles Place (formerly known as UOB Center). Since this skyscraper is on the middle of Singapore city center, it provides a great view of many locations of interest and monuments in Singapore such as Chinatown, Raffles Hotel, Singapore Flyer, Marina Bay Sands, Padang, etc.

The view from 1-Altitude is unrivaled. It is at the highest possible point, much higher than Singapore Flyer and MBS Observation Deck. And because the building is triangle shaped and there are 3 sides, each point provides a very wide viewing angle on the gallery.

1-Altitude Gallery visit is a must if you visit Singapore. You may probably have done nothing like this before: Looking at a very beautiful city center from that above.

1-Altitude Gallery Ticket Prices and Visit Times
The ticket price depends on the time of visit. Between 08:00 AM - 5:29 PM, the visit costs 25 SGD per person. From 5:30 PM to 10:00 PM, the ticket costs 40 SGD. After 05:30 PM, the location is used as a bar and visitors will be given a complimentary mocktail.

For kids below 5 years of age, the entry is free.

While you are there, also note that 1-Altitude is not just an observation deck. It offers a restaurant named Stellar on 62nd floor, 1-Altitude Gallery & Bar (level 63) and 282 & CityGolf (Level 61).
