The Helix Bridge

Good that in the city dominated by car traffic and wide roads even in the city centre, they have made efforts for pedestrian and bicycle traffic as well. The design is unique, especially in the night time when the bridge is illuminated with coloured lights. This shortcut to Marina Bay Sands has several viewing platforms.

The Helix Bridge is one of those places that quietly surprises you. At first glance it’s “just a bridge”, but once you start walking across it you realise how special it really is. The spiral design is striking and feels very futuristic, especially in the evening when the whole structure lights up. From the viewing platforms you get some of the best views of Marina Bay Sands, the ArtScience Museum and the Singapore skyline – it’s a fantastic spot for photos, particularly at sunset or after dark. It’s wide, easy to walk and completely free, which makes it perfect to include while exploring the Marina Bay area. We stopped several times just to take in the views and enjoy the atmosphere. It’s not something you would travel across the city just to see on its own, but as part of a Marina Bay walk it’s an absolute must. Simple, elegant and very memorable.

Our next stop was Helix Bridge, and it was absolutely stunning! The red lights illuminated the bridge beautifully, making the night walk even more enjoyable. Such a wonderful place to stroll and take in the amazing architecture definitely a highlight of the evening. 🔴✨

This beautiful bridge looks especially stunning at night. The red light rays make it even more eye-catching and create a really nice atmosphere. It's a great spot for a walk and photos, with beautiful views of Marina Bay around you. Just be a little mindful while walking, as some people use the bridge for jogging or passing through. Overall, it's a lovely place to visit at night and definitely worth stopping by when you're in Singapore 🌉✨

Great during the day and absolutely magical at night! During daylight hours, the architectural detail—its spiralling double helix structure—makes for a beautiful and modern photo opportunity. It’s a peaceful, breezy pedestrian link with great views of Marina Bay and the skyline. Come night, though, the bridge truly comes alive. The LED lights illuminate in a spectrum of vibrant colours, casting glowing reflections on the water below. Walking across under the canopy of changing hues with the Marina Bay Sands light show in the background is an unforgettable experience. The design and engineering are stunning, especially in daylight, but the atmosphere after dark is something else entirely. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxed stroll and photos any time of day, but you really don’t want to miss it after sunset. A must-see in Singapore!

The Helix Bridge in Singapore is a stunning pedestrian bridge that connects Marina Bay Sands to Marina Centre. Its unique double-helix design, inspired by the structure of DNA, offers a visually captivating experience. The bridge features shaded areas and four viewing platforms, providing panoramic views of the city skyline and Marina Bay. At night, the bridge is beautifully illuminated, making it a popular spot for photography and leisurely strolls. It’s a must-visit landmark when exploring the Marina Bay area.

The design of the Bridge is wonderful. The inspiration for is the DNA and the execution is just splendid! While walking on it you get 3 points of view where you can sit and observe the surroundings.

You get the best views in the morning and at night.

Another worthy fly-by, it's cool to see in the day but cooler to see lit up at night. Of course, you can walk the bridge to get to or from a variety of tourist destinations in the bay.

Do you love bridges? The Helix Bridge is an amazing pedestrian bridge that links the Marina Centre with Marina South in the Marina Bay area of Singapore. It is so interesting with its double helix DNA design. Fun to take a walk at sunset to get a great view of the bridge and the Singapore skyline from the multiple viewing platforms. The bridge is so beautiful lit up at night.

A very different and unique bridge. Helix Bridge is not like other bridges. It is spiral design and resembles a DNA structure. The bridge leads to Marina Bay Sands. There are balconies where you can stop by to get good views of MBS, the Merlion Park, the city, etc. Take a scroll across the bridge daytime and nighttime. Enjoy the views along the way :)

This is a pedestrian bridge with a unique design. The metal spirals overhead with short planks to shield from the sun or rain. It is a bridge connecting a path to the Marina Bay Sands hotel and very high-end shopping mall. From the top of the bridge, you can see the old amphitheater and the Quay areas with all the boats below.

This is a beautiful bridge, connecting some of the many islands of Singapore. If used by Torres mobile the lake. It's wide and has plenty of room and has tons of areas. You can watch the scenery from as well. Highly recommend making this part of your Singapore stay if you were walking around.

The World's first curved bridge The Helix Bridge which crosses the Singapore river and connects tourist attractions along Marina Bay, is a pedestrian bridge made of lightweight stainless steel. It is apparently designed in the form of a curved DNA structure. The bridge is a beauty on its own due to its unique and interesting architecture. It's a very cool bridge to see and walk by especially at night when its lit up and its LED lights changing in different colors. There are also viewing decks along the bridge which enable pedestrians to see the view of the marina as well as the city skyline on the other side of the river.

Wow. I can't believe there are reviews for the Helix Bridge!!!! If you are staying at the Marina Bay Sands (or surrounding hotels), the Helix Bridge will connect you to the area where the Singapore Flyer is located. This is perfect if you are staying at the MBS or at the shoppes at the MBS and would like to ride the Singapore Flyer. Walking across the bridge is fast. It gives you direct viewing of Singapore harbor and the bay. It is an ideal spot to take obligatory selfies. The structure of the Helix Bridge is in a DNA spiral. There are blocks with letters that correspond to the DNA sequence. I would suggest to see the bridge both in the day and evening as both times will provide different views for your enjoyment.

If you are around the Marina Bay Sands hotel or the Art Science museum, then take a few minutes to walk around the Helix Bridge. The architecture of the bridge is quite impressive and it does look like DNA structure as mentioned by other Yelpers. There's a few balconies where you can stand and take some photos with the Marina Bay Sands in the background. I only came here during the daytime, but I'll have to come back here during the evening time one day since the night photos looks spectacular.

When you visit/travel any country, you should just walk around and see and experience the beauty within the city and country itself. Singapore is a diverse country of past and future - the building range from old,antique to modern,glass buildings. The Helix Bridge allows you do see the pretty modern buildings of Singapore as you are walking across the river. There are other foreigners and citizens mixed in when walking around the bridge. This place is a nice place to take a picture of the Marina Bay Hotel and the city! Singapore is a hot and humid country, but this bridge is worth the humidity and sweat because the photos turn out goooood!! Highly recommend!!! You can burn off the calories which you gained from all the good food you ate during your visit HAHA!!

The Helix Bridge is one of the most pretty pedestrian bridges I ever walked through. The whole structure just lighted up like a X'mas tree. Walking through it is like walking through a river of stars...... Linking up Marina Bay to Marina South, for some might be just a walkway.. For someone in biological science, the design does have other significances: A left handed designed DNA structure.. c & g, a & t For me just a nice walk underneath all these lights, a cool breeze from the water... and oh so pretty like in a fairy tale!

The Helix Bridge gives easy access to any travelers looking to explore Singapore by foot!!! I went to the Singapore Flyer in the morning and got some delicious lunch near the food plaza! After lunch I wanted to see more of this city, so I walked across the bridge and found myself at the Marina Bay! Loved how this is designed, there are a couple of viewing decks on the side, so you can take your selfies with the skyline behind you!!! At night it does light up *bummed I wasn't there long enough to see it*.

I am always surprised to see people reviewing bridges (okay, I know, I'm reviewing a bridge, but I'm only doing it because everybody else is), but I guess that is what one of those really cool things abot Yelp - people will review anything and everything. So, this is a pedestrian footbridge that allows you to cross from the waterfront over to the Marina Bay sands and it is shaped like a helix - you know that genetic thing that is supposed to be the building block of life and also the computer code (if that is the proper term - apparently it is because Computer Science students study it) that defines who you are. As for me, well, I saw it on Google so I decided that I would at least go and check it out - at least I knew what it was as opposed to walking across it and knowing none the wiser.

I've only walked across two other bridges in my life.. The Brooklyn bridge and the Golden gate bridge.. The Brooklyn bridge has it's history but not beauty. The Golden Gate bridge has it's beauty and The Helix Bridge.. well it has it's own DNA structure .. literally. The bridge has it's beauty in a modern kind of way. It's best to come here at night when it's all lit up and you can enjoy the view of the marina. Keep in mind that in Singapore you can't just wave your hand for a taxi. You have to go to a taxi stop. so if you cross this bridge FROM the hotel you are pretty much walking to you next destination. If you want a taxi walk back to the hotel .

From far away, the helix bridge looked so long and scary to walk on. But the actual walk was quite quick. It was also drizzling a bit so the quirky roofs were much appreciated. It also had a few balconies for people to stop and take pictures on. A+ for the design!

Take a walk on the Helix Bridge during the evenings as it's much cooler than the daytime and you get a great view of the city lights.

This bridge makes for an enjoyable and breezy stroll across Marina Bay, from MBS to the Olympic Park. It's architecture is shaped like that of a DNA helix, hence its name. This bridge is best enjoyed in the night time where one can catch the changing LED colours. And during big events such as National Day Parade and Formula 1, the Helix Bridge would be the perfect location to catch a bird's eye view of the action. Highly recommended for the tourist visiting Marina Bay, but that said, it's not a priority attraction.

Why can't I get my pictures of the Helix Bridge as nice as everyone else's? Must be my crap Samsung Mega 5.8 camera. I digress. This bridge is cool. Today must have been the Singapore bridge day...The Family first triumphed over the Henderson Waves and now we've conquered The Helix Bridge.

super fan of this bridge. perfect view overlooking the river towards the financial district. place to go for tourists, its an awesome photospot. going in e night is even better with e bridge lighted up. on e ground you could see signs of DNA like c g a and t. makes me feel like im walking in a artery tube. :P pardon my imagination. goes wild sometimes.

This bridge was absolutely beautiful! The architecture was noteworthy and cool and it had the million dollar view of the Marina Bay. I was able to take the bridge from the Marina Bay Shoppes to my hotel (Mandarin Oriental). It was a nice 15 minute walk.

I think this place is really cool. If you know your biology, the curve structure of the bridge is supposed to mimic the structure of a dna. If you dont know biology (raise hands here), this place is still pretty cool. The smooth curved waves really flow well as it connects the two ends. The led lights at night soften the steel structure even more ... an excellent choice compared to the harsh light of the nearby lamp post. good job guyss!!

Very cool and unique bridge across the harbor. Connecting the Marina Bay Sands with the Esplanade the helix is one of the more unique bridges in the world with its undulating and winding helix design. So beautiful at night.
