Next in the seemingly neverending stream of events in Singapore is the iLight Festival.
Around Marina Bay, about 20 light installations from international artists have been placed. Ofcourse they give light, but on top of that many are eco friendly or interactive.
Providing a wonderful walking tour around the bay, which we made several times, since it is at our doorstep.
