Singapore has opened a new wonder, “Sky Park” Marina Bay Sands – located 200-meter high, resting on the three skyscrapers, as if on three pillars. Its a treat to watch the structure that truly lives up to its name. Its a park in the sky. Stretching longer than the Eiffel tower laid down or four and a half A380 Jumbo Jets, with an impressive 12,400 square meters of space, the Sands SkyPark can host up to 3900 people. The gravity-defying cantilever is one of the largest of its kind in the world. From this privileged observation deck, hundreds of visitors at a time can feast their eyes on the unforgettable panoramic view of Singapore.
The £4billion, 2,500 room Marina Bay Sand is the biggest hotel in Singapore at the moment. It consists of three different hotel towers that are connected by the sands skypark located at the top of the structures. The skypark pool is 200 meters off the ground. At three times the length of an Olympic pool and 650ft up, it sets the record for the largest outdoor pool at this height, although that is not too surprising.
But swimming to the edge won't be quite as risky as it looks. While the water in the infinity pool seems to end in a sheer drop, it actually spills into a catchment area where it is pumped back into the main pool.
The pool stretches 150 metres, three times the length of an Olympic swimming pool. If you fancy a dip in this pool, you'll need to let go of the fear of heights - it's 55 storeys up.
