Why visit	It’s rare to see functional water art in the CBD—this rotating water wheel lifts water, moves it around the rim, and pours it back down, symbolising prosperity and continuous flow.
What to expect	• A giant, slow-moving wheel catching and circulating water • Light glistening off the surface, forming an ever-changing visual • A calming, almost meditative display in the heart of town
Artistic concept	Designed to echo Feng Shui beliefs—circulating water is thought to attract wealth and good energy. Positioned above the commuter link, it adds an artistic pause to everyday journeys.
Best viewing times	Anytime during operating hours. The wheel is most attractive under natural daylight—but looks equally dramatic under evening lighting.
Family‑friendly	Yes. Kids love watching the slow rhythm of water against metal. The plaza is open, spacious, and safe—though railings are nearby so keep an eye on little ones.
Parent tips	• Stand back for the full wheel view or peek through the centre for a hypnotic “aquarium” effect • Use the peaceful moment to reset during a busy day • Nearby cafés make great pit stops
Getting there	MRT: Esplanade (CCL) or City Hall (EW/NS via CityLink) — follow signs to CityLink Mall. It sits just above the linkway, between One Raffles Link towers.
💡 Bonus insight	Keep an eye on the water flow—you may notice a subtle change in speed when power surges or rainfall levels change. A tiny engineering marvel right in the city.
