For killer city views at a bargain, head to the 50th-floor rooftop of Pinnacle@Duxton (pinnacleduxton.com.sg; S$6), the world's tallest public residential buildings. The project consists of seven 50-story apartment towers connected by two levels of Skybridge, which provide a 360-degree sweep of the city, port and sea. It's one of an ever-growing number of bold architectural statements that make up Singapore's skyline.

Find the discreet manned ticket booth at level one, Block G in the south. If you don't have an Ez-link transport card or cash in hand, the digital kiosk accepts credit cards and issues QR code tickets. Take lifts A or B up to the 50th floor and scan the ticket at the gate to pass (it may be fiddly). Chilling out is encouraged, with patches of lawn, modular furniture and sun loungers. Only 150 visitors are allowed each day. Sunset is the best time to visit.
