Singapore is home to plenty of rooftop bars, offering the likes of cocktails, beers, wines and some mouthwatering bar bites. The highlight, of course, is the scenic view of the gorgeous cityscape filled with skyscrapers and others like Marina Bay and Singapore River, depending on the bar locations. Here is our list of Top 10 rooftop bars in Singapore.
