The Marina Barrage is a dam in Singapore built across the Marina Channel of Marina East and Marina South. It was officially opened on 1 November 2008.

The S$226 million project turns Marina Bay and Kallang Basin into a new downtown freshwater Marina Reservoir. It provides water supply, flood control and a new lifestyle attraction. This structure will provide flood control by changing the tide flow into the barrage.

I am not very satisfied with the outcome of todays photo-taking cos it was a cloudy day and its drizzling on and off, so my photos appears rather dark. I have to do adjustment of the brightness to the original photos. *sigh*

Will be re-visiting Marina Barrage the soonest time possible when the sky is brighter.

.: about me :.
Nature lover.

Hate late-comers. I dunt hv high patience level u know.

One thing that i always hold onto; wenever sometg bad happen to me, i'll nvr ask God "Why me?" Cos in times of goodness and happiness i nvr ask God "Why me?" Cos everything that happened, happens for a reason.

My favourite love quote : "Missing someone is the kind of hurt a heart should be thankful to feel."
