Singapore

Singapore has a knack for building awe-inducing structures which inevitably shift the focal point of the skyline. These days, it’s Marina Bay Sands, a triple-tower entertainment complex with an eye-popping skydeck that looks like someone parked a cruise ship across all three of the hotel’s towers. Boarding this cruiseship, otherwise known as Sands SkyPark, is a must. Hovering 57 stories into the sky, the cantilevered observation deck gives you unparalleled, unobstructed views of the city—and for many, a bit of vertigo! The expansive infinity pool, which can be viewed from the SkyPark on weekends (but whose use is reserved for hotel guests), is a stunning sight, with an invisible edge that gives the illusion the water—and anyone swimming in it—will pour right off the edge. If you don’t want to pay for admission to the SkyPark, hit the skydeck restaurant, Ku De Ta, instead. You’ll get the same views and a cocktail to boot!
