Default Where to watch fireworks other than at Esplanade on 31st Dec ?

Hi hi,

Any places other than Esplanade that can go to watch fireworks this 31st Dec ?

Coz I was there last year and the crowd was very scary sia. Took like nearly 30 mins of pushing, squeezing, shoving, smelling other people's hair / sweat just to get from the traffic light crossing just opposite Esplanade to the waterfront area

No more repeat of that this year man !!

Anywhere else can go for fireworks this New Year's Eve ?

Thanks

no $$$ la. And i think already too late to book hotel liao. Confirm fully book already.

Next problem is, my gf is working that day, and by the time she finish, its almost clost to 11pm liao. So no way to go early to park ourselves at a good spot lo.

For Esplanade fireworks, if go across to Marina City Park on the opposite bank of the river still can see ? I guess there won't have as many people ba ?
