Hi Steemians! I was scrolling through steem and came across a fun photo contest by @juliank.
Wednesday is for photos related to architecture or vehicles. When I travel I have the tendency to capture buildings so I'd like to share a photo taken from my iPhone. The below is of Singapore's iconic Marina Bay Sands (or as I call it, the 'Ship Building') or AKA MBS by the locals, on the right of the photo.
Fun facts (did you know):
- MBS has 2,561 rooms - making it the largest hotel in Singapore
- The 3 iconic towers were the world's most complex buildings ever built
- When MBS was opened in 2010, it was billed as the world's most expensive stand-alone casino property (costing $8bn)
- The Sands SkyPark (ship at the top of the building) is home to the world's largest elevated swimming pool at 150 metres (the infinity pool looking over all of Singapore where you'll feel like you're on the edge of the world)
- MBS houses an array of luxury brands and some of the most expensive restaurants in the world
Marina Bay Sands is definitely an architectural and engineering masterpiece!
Travel Tip:
Getting to the top floor to the SkyPark for a drink at Ce La Vi is free to enter - just tell the concierge by the lifts you're going up for a drink (expect to pay $$$ for alcohol prices). Here you'll get a great top view of Singapore - it certainly beats paying the $35 entry fee at One Altitude for same views!
Unfortunately only hotel guests are allowed into the infinity pool and pool area.
