Marina Bay Sands Singapore & Skypark


The Marina Bay Sands' towers (55 floors) and cantilever in the background. The cantilever, which looks like large boat sitting atop the tower, has a platform of amazing views of the Singapore skyline, sun deck, infinity pool and future restaurants.



Views of Singapore from the Skypark. The elevator rose 55 floors in 30 seconds.

Amazing, that I could see the water seemingly falling off the roof when I viewed the infinity pool.

The concierge told us that the Singapore government does not want its citizens to gamble and has imposed a $100 fee that must be paid to enter the casino. The government has made $17 million in the four months that the casino has been opened because of this "fee."
