The Singapore Flyer, the world's largest observation wheel, stands on the edge of Marina Bay, with passengers enjoying views over both the city and out to sea. The Marina Bay area has recently emerged as a go-to area for visitors to Singapore. Its proximity to the Central Business District makes this a popular area for business travellers, while the wealth of entertainment options ensures that general tourists are flocking to the area too.
The Marina Bay Sands hotel and casino complex just across the water from the Singapore Flyer presides over the area. Its arrival in 2010 changed the Singapore skyline immeasurably and its much-hyped architecture and rooftop pool ensured that the city was placed firmly on the world travel map. Not surprisingly then, the many entertainment options housed within the Marina Bay Sands complex feature heavily on our list. Its Sands Skypark offers some of the best views in the whole city, its maze of shops are the perfect spot to flex the credit card in, and nightowls can take in a show at the theatre or gamble the night away in the Casino.
Across the water from both the Singapore Flyer and the Marina Bay Sands complex is Merlion Park, one of the best spots for enjoying the views of the Marina Bay skyline. This is also the best place to jump aboard a river cruise which will take you on up the Singapore River.
