The best cliff views from all around the world
Edge of glory
Taller than our backyard hill, Mount Faber and less imposing than mountains that disappear into hovering clouds, cliffs fall snugly in between the two opposing categories of natural formations. If you think that Mount Faber offers impressive views of our cityscape with the likes of Keppel Bay, suspended cable cars and a sweeping view of the 'new Bali' Sentosa — you are right. These cliffs, however — near and far — redefine the meaning of a stunning sight that overlooks emerald blue waters and majestic rock formations. We bring together ten cliff locations that serve you postcard-worthy scenery; and perhaps just enough pull for a holiday around it.
