The Marina Bay Sands is the latest landmark in Singapore, with its breathtaking architecture and the resemblance to joss sticks... haha....Been around the vicinity several times and each time is a special photo-taking experience.
This time i was there, it was high time to pay a visit to its famous Skypark. The Sands Skypark is basically a viewing platform situated right on top of the '3 joss sticks'. The famous way to describe it is that it is longer than an Eiffel Tower lying down.!~
Once on top, it was a sight to behold. It is especially dazzling at night, just like Hong Kong's Victoria Peak. Although Hong Kong has a much nicer skyline, i suppose Singapore's night lights will do as well. The Singapore Flyer looks like a huge tambourine standing.
Looking down from another side you will see the lotus-shaped Art Science Museum just in front of the floating platform where the nation holds its National Day Parade for the last few years.
I love how the sillouette of the buildings are reflected in the waters by the bay. Although the skypark is above 70 storeys, it wasn't windy at all, making viewing an easy job without us having to get flyaway hair get in the way, or wardrobe malfunctions :P
And the answer was because the glass panels are built really high up, so the winds were not able to reach us. It is pretty daunting to look down all the way cos it was all see-through,
