"蛇prise” (shé-prise) CNY Art Installation at Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre

As the Year of the Snake approaches, the Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre invites families and friends to celebrate with a creative and engaging installation known as "蛇prise" (shé-prise).

Featuring a snake lawn display and slide weaving its way across the rooftop, as well as a Prosperity Pavilion, the installation bring together tradition, art, and spectacular city views.

The rooftop installation is free for all, and is open daily from 10am-10pm.

We recommend visiting in the evenings as it can get rather hot in the afternoons since the rooftop is not sheltered.

The installation also lights up at night, adding an extra dimension to your photos.
