Singapore_Places to See...
As said in my previous posts...I will in this post be giving more details on some of the most important places to visit\see in Singapore.
That's Marina Bay Sands...A 7* Hotel...One of the must see in Singapore. Do notice the boat shape...It is located in Marina Bay and is with in the vicinity of the Marina Bay Financial District. Developed by Las Vegas Sands, it is billed as the world's most expensive standalone casino property at S$8 billion, including cost of the prime land.
With the casino complete, the resort features a 2,561-room hotel, a 1,300,000-square-foot (120,000 m2) convention-exhibition centre, the 800,000-square-foot (74,000 m2) The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands mall, an iconic ArtScience museum, two large theaters, seven "celebrity chef" restaurants, two floating Crystal Pavilions, an ice skating rink, and the world's largest atrium casino with 500 tables and 1,600 slot machines. The complex is topped by a 340m-long SkyPark with a capacity of 3,900 people and a 150m infinity swimming pool, set on top of the world's largest public cantilevered platform, which overhangs the north tower by 67m.

You can also go to the top of the hotel...and get a breathtaking view of Singapore's financial district below..What you get to see is awesome....and splendid...You also get added bonus of viewing the Esplanade Theaters, Fullerton Hotel, Nearby Kusu and St.John's Islands, HarbourFront, Sentosa Island, The Singapore Flyer and the Gardens by the Bay.
The Marina Bays Sands Sky Park is a small area for public viewing...on top of the resort. The Tickets have to be purchased at the lobby below for 20 SGD. The Sky Park is usually open from morning 10 a.m to 11p.m but can sometimes be closed due to unexpected rainfall and gusty winds. It's better to call them up and check before going there.
