The shoppes at Marina Bay Sands

January 29, 2011

Here are some pictures of Marina Bay Sands mall I took during the Christmas New Year period. Half of the shopping wing, the half near the convention centre, is still not ready. The whole mall is pretty massive. Walking from one end to the other takes some effort! Luckily, the mall is straight so navigating isn’t a problem.

Marina Bay Sands Front Entrance

Love the Season’s Greetings silver decoration at their front entrance. The letterings are so large, I could even see it across the Singapore river from Fullerton Bay Hotel.

It’s cool that you can see the original Singapore skyline from within the Marina Bay Sands mall

Marina Bay Sands Mall Sampan Ride

In Singapore, they have been named the Sampan Rides. In Macau and in Las Vegas, they are known as the Gondola Rides. The sampan looks modified. The real Singapore sampans that used to throng the Singapore river don’t look like that. I don’t know how the paddle even works, being angled in this manner. I suspect the currents push the boat along.

People waiting expectantly for the next sampan to appear.

Can’t quite see it from the photos but the things on the side were spraying tiny foam balls to resemble raindrops.

The Society of Black Sheep. What a quirky name for a clothing store.

The foodcourt Rasapura Masters and the skating rink. Dining here must surely be out of the ordinary. Look how close the skaters are! Wonder if people get shocked and choke if someone accidentally bumps into the glass…Smile

The rink isn’t made of ice btw, it’s some synthetic slippery material. Guess that means it’s eco-friendly.

Tall robots. Many people were snapping away at them, especially at the lady.

  1. I think this would be my number one hangout in Singapore if it was not so hard/expensive to get here. Ironically this is also the reason why this place feels so spacious…being not overcrowded with people.

    Wow it’s nice that you stayed here…to count down for the New Year? that would be exciting.

      • Wow that sounds lovely 🙂 Happy belated birthday!! If you’re a Christmas/ NY baby I think that’s the loveliest time of the year.

        It’s more of the parking charges.

        • Shhhh not yet…. I think the partner will book that for my upcoming birthday….

          I don’t fancy being a year end baby though. Studies have shown that year end babies tend to lose out to their peers in school. At that age, up to a year’s difference in age can really be significant.

  2. […] One should definitely go up to Kinki’s Rooftop bar to have a drink as well as take in the views of Marina Bay Financial Centre (MBFC) and Marina Bay Sands. The views from up there are astounding and there’s just nothing blocking your view at all. Of course, night views are the best and it’s more romantic! Oh, Kinki Rooftop bar would definitely be one of the best places to view the NDP 2011 fireworks! Check out my photos of MBS! […]
