National Theatre

Hee Hee, the picture on the left would probably whip up some nostalgic feeling of those who have had their pictures taken in front of it. At least, way back in 1978/1979 when I graduated from Singapore Polytechnic - this is where my graduation is held.
This structure is a well photograph building known as the National Theatre. It is easily recognized by the 5 spire liked diamond shape facade and the big fountain in front of the building. If I remember correctly, the building to the right of it is the Van Kleef Acquarium and then the River Valley Swimming Pool. Opposite the River Valley Swimming Pool is the Clarke Quay of today. Those days, the place where Clarke Quay is today were just warehouses....and yes when we went to the swimming pool for a swim, we would like to eat the curry puffs after the swim; somehow the curry puffs taste good in the mouth after drinking the chlorinated water....is it right, my dear brothers?
