Telok Blangah Hill Park & Henderson Waves is well-known for its scenic location and unique architecture, to the extent that its a popular venue for wedding photoshoots.
The biggest attraction here would be Henderson Waves. The largest pedestrian bridge in Singapore, and one of the highest, it offers fantastic city views in either direction. Another unique point is the architecture of Henderson Waves, a distinctive wave-like structure of undulating curved 'ribs', which also double as shelters. At night, the Henderson Waves are lit by LED.
Another major attraction is located within Telok Blangah Hill Park, known as the Terrace Garden. A series of large terraces, on which different flowers are grown, is a very pretty sight.
Telok Blangah Hill Park & Henderson Waves also houses Alkaff Mansion, a restored colonial building, which houses a restaurant and bar.
Personally, I felt Telok Blangah Hill Park & Henderson Waves is almost like a 'passing through' attraction spot... As part of the Southern Ridges, the attractions are spread out quite linear across the park. You could literally travel from one attraction point to another in a linear fashion.
If you're planning a visit, do note that admission is free, and allocate between 1 to 2 hours for viewing. Also, wear a good pair of shoes, and bring water!
