Even while Singapore is known for its affluence, it's not a place where you'll find many people who aren't well-off there. Besides that, there's much more to see and do in Singapore than simply designer shops, five-star hotels, and Michelin-starred restaurants. Many family-friendly activities and gorgeous public spaces make visiting this somewhat futuristic city worthwhile, as well as a vivid past and different ethnic sections.
An integrated resort complex that overlooks Marina Bay in Singapore is Marina Bay Sands and is owned by the Las Vegas Sands Corporation. Including the land cost, it was described as the most costly casino facility in the world when it opened in 2010. At Marina Bay Sands, you'll find a 2,561-room hotel as well as a convention center with 120,000 square meters of exhibit space, a 74,000-square-metre shopping mall with "celebrity chef" restaurants and art-science exhibits, as well as the world's largest atrium casino with 500 tables and 1,600 gaming machines. An infinity swimming pool is located on top of the world's biggest public cantilever platform, which extends 66.5 m over the north tower of the complex and has a capacity of 3,902 persons. Israel's Moshe Safdie architects created the sprawling, 20-hectare resort. Originally slated to open in 2009, Marina Bay Sands has been plagued by rising building costs and labor constraints from its inception.
Sentosa Island, or Pulau Blakang Mati, is a small island situated off the southern shore of Singapore's main island, known as Sentosa, or just Sentosa. The Keppel Harbour separates the island from Singapore's main island, Sentosa, next to Pulau Brani, a tiny island jammed between the two. Sentosa, a former British military post and a Japanese POW camp was renamed and repurposed as a tourist resort in the 1970s. It is currently home to a well-known resort that attracts over twenty million tourists each year. As well as its 14 hotels and two golf courses at the Sentosa Resort and a 2km-long sand-protected beach, Sentosa has a Cable Car network, Fort Siloso, and an extensive Cable Car network. Besides being the site of the Singapore summit between North Korea and the United States, Sentosa is also well-known for being the site of the Capella Hotel & Spa., where Kim Jong-un and Trump met in 2018.
Resorts World Sentosa's theme park, Universal Studios Singapore, is situated on Sentosa Island in Singapore. Twenty-eight attractions are spread over seven themed zones. The Genting Group's ambition to create Singapore's second integrated resort relied heavily on it. The group was declared the winner of the bidding on December 8, 2006, by the Singapore government. On April 19, 2007, work on the resort's theme park and other components was underway. It is the first theme park in Southeast Asia and the second in Asia to be opened by Universal Studios. On October 20, 2009, Universal Studios Singapore made a park map available to the public, revealing the company's formal intentions for the attraction. More than 2 million people visited Universal Studios Singapore in its first nine months. "One-of-a-kind theme park in Asia" was sold by Universal Parks & Resorts and guaranteed that it will be Southeast Asia's only one of its type for the next 30 years.
An observation wheel in Singapore's Downtown Core is known as the Singapore Flyer. It was officially inaugurated on April 15, 2008, with 28 air-conditioned capsules, each capable of holding 28 people, and a three-story terminal building included. Although the 167.6 m High Roller is higher than the 165 m Flyer, the Flyer was the world's tallest Ferris wheel for a time. There have been countless appearances of the Flyer in Singapore-related media and popular culture.
The ArtScience Museum is located in the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort in Singapore's Downtown Core. The world's first ArtScience museum, inaugurated on February 17 by Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, has important exhibits that integrate art, science, culture, and technology. Although a permanent display is planned for the ArtScience Gallery, most of the Museum's shows are produced by other institutions and travel throughout the world.
