"What can we expect from this place? You can't miss this giant, wedding-cake-like monument in the middle of Singapore's Civic District—it's one of the oldest buildings in the area and perhaps the most imposing, with its Neo Gothic design topped with a minimalist spire. Park grounds surround the structure so it stands out as a sanctuary in the midst of a busy urban area. This is Singapore's largest cathedral and also its oldest Anglican house of worship. What’s the mood like? Quiet reflection. Who comes here? This is a church with an active parish, so there are services throughout the week. Why would you recommend a visit here? It's an architectural and spiritual balm in the middle of an area dotted with concrete, cookie-cutter malls. A nice breather from the frenetic scene outside the grounds. And who do you think would most enjoy it—or not? It's a gem for history, culture, and architecture buffs. Not a place for kids who need to expend energy or those just in it for the 'gram (though non-flash photography is allowed)." - Audrey Phoon
