Random Places I have been:- NDP Review fire work display from Marina Bay Sands swimming pool

By a stroke of blind luck, I have stayed at Marina Bay Sand on 31 July which happened to be Singapore National Day review. By another stroke of good luck, Singapore Minister Mentor also visited the Sky Garden at the same time. I was confused by the sudden camera flashes directed in my direction until I notice Minister Mentor Mr Lee Kuan Yew standing right beside me, surrounded by guards of cos.

Since I find this interesting and fun, I will just post it under random places of interest as the pool is normally exclusive to hotel guests only.

At the same time, I will post some photos of the inside of MBS. This gives you guys a chance to look how it really looks like...not some nice marketing photoshoot by MBS.

Places I have been :- Marina Bay Sand Sky Park Observation Gallery

Most of you must have heard about the Sky Park that was opened recently at the top of Marina Bay Sand. Recently, I was invited to pay a visit to the Sky Park and the view is really out of this world. The panoramic view of Singapore as seen from the deck make you feel like the emperor viewing his land haha.

The entrance fee is $20 for adults and free of children below 2. I cannot remember the cost for students..sorry!

As you walk around the deck, listen to your audio device (loan to you as you get your ticket) and learn about the history of the buildings and landmarks observe from the Sky Park observation gallery.

I wanted to take the night view from top of the gallery but well, I do not have too much time that day to loiter. I am staying at the hotel at end of the month and will keep you guys posted of the night view.

By the way only the observation deck is opened to public, the rest of the areas like the restaurant (not open yet...until Sept) and the pools are off limits (I have taken some photos too and will post it below).

I will just put this page under places I have been.

Beyond this point, the places are strictly off limited to public.

Random places of interest :- Marina Bay Sand and The Helix

Gosh! It has been more than 1 week since I last posted! Oops! Well in the one week much has changed. The greatest change is the opening of another iconic building in Singapore and a new bridge to link it. Yes, its the Marina Bay Sand and The Helix Bridge.

After work, I take a quick stroll to the MBS and bridge. As all of you should know, only a small part of the complex is open. Well see picture below for a sneak review.

This tour will be classified under random places of interest to as it does not meet the objective of the blog.
