Marina Bay Sands SkyPark Observation Deck

April 10, 2011

More pictures of the Marina Bay Sands SkyPark Observation Deck as well as what was observed. Smile

Notice my mother is a distance away from the edge of the observation deck. And notice that I am even further from the edge. Actually the part I am standing on is already protruding out of the 3rd tower, but this is how the mind plays tricks. It is super windy up here, which adds to the amazing feeling. Try not to wear loose caps or you probably won’t see it again.

Pathway leading to the pool. Isn’t it crazy that this picture was taken 57 floors above ground, when it looks just like a normal park, trees and all?

The mandatory souvenir shop, so you don’t leave empty handed. Ku De Ta’s just above the shop.

Those shades hide the swimmers from view, but really, you just have to poke your head between those shades to enjoy the visual feast.

Now you’ve seen many photos of the iconic 3 towered Marina Bay Sands. Have you seen the SHADOW of Marina Bay Sands? That construction going on down below is the new Gardens by the Bay. Really looking forward to its opening. And those clam shell structures will be the climate controlled greenhouses. It seems they will be planting and showcasing plants from temperate countries in there.

If you’ve been to temperate countries like NZ and UK, they have climate controlled greenhouses to replicate a tropical rainforest climate, horrid humidity and all. I suppose people living in cold countries may be curious to know how it feels like to be in the tropics, but really, I much rather visit a cold greenhouse rather than a hot one!

You can literally ”see” how windy it is. Singapore looks so flat from up here. There is a little lump of a mountain right at the very eastern end of Singapore. It looks like it is in Singapore, but I don’t think so.

Can you see the huge bit of land that is forested on both sides and totally cleared in the middle? I wonder if that is the Paya Lebar Airbase. I had no idea it was that huge and taking up so much space.

Did you know the Floating Platform has been transformed into a football pitch? It kind of looks very cartoony from up here.

  1. This is insanely breathtaking! 😀
    Can’t wait for Gardens by the Bay to be completed. I’m saving hard for my next trip to Singapore 😀

    • It is very breathtaking isn’t it? When the design for MBS first came up, like many Singaporeans, I thought what a horribly tall thing blocking our skyline. Now I can’t help but love MBS! Yes can’t wait for Gardens by the Bay too. Hope you get the chance to come to Singapore soon, and thanks for stopping by my blog!

    • Thanks! It’s worth taking the time to go see! Maybe go in the late afternoon, then u can get 2 contrasting views if you stay till night time.

  2. Aww your mum is so sweet.

    I can imagine. It is very daunting especially if you have vertigo. For me I can’t go on the Singapore Flyer because of the confined space fear. Well it’s more the fear of being unable to escape.

    • Thanks!
      I wish there was a pill to take to easily banish away all these fears. Either that or perhaps I should force myself to dine at all the top floor restaurants to get rid of my fear? 🙂 I don’t have vertigo though. I think I just have an extremely imaginative mind.
      Ask your partner to treat you to a ride that includes dinner. Maybe that will entice you to endure the ride in the capsule?

    • Nope, I took them all. Mostly from the middle tower where I felt safer hee hee hee.

  3. These photos are amazing!!!!! Like you said, I couldn’t believe that the park exists on the 57th floor. It looks like on the ground with the trees!! Ku De Ta! I haven’t been to Bali, but I heard about the bar very famous in Bali just opened another one in Singapore. Very cool! Singapore is really flat like you said. Amazing! You also have some photos of very yummy looking food. Thanks for the sweet comments on my blog! Kaho
