Sands SkyPark Observation Deck

Sands SkyPark Observation Deck Marina bay sands

Have you stayed at Marina Bay Sands  iconic 5-star hotel? If yes, then good for you! Well, I can't afford this hotel, it is way beyond my budget! For sure most of you can relate but  hey don't be disheartened, we can still enjoy the best city-skyline view of Singapore without checking in at their hotel or trying out their expensive restaurants.  How? Sands SkyPark Observation Deck.

The observation deck takes up one side of the rooftop area of Marina Bay Sands. For only $23 you can enjoy the best view of Singapore with no time limit.

From the observation deck, visitors can have an unforgettable 360-degree view of Singapore skyline with nothing but a sheet of glass and a few wires to obstruct the panorama.  A feast for the eye indeed! Great for photo opt so don't  forget your camera!

Here's a picture of the observation deck from down below:

Sands Skypark Observation Deck is located at Level 56 which is the same floor of their infinity pool. Unfortunately the pool is only for their hotel guests but it is visible from the Observation Deck so I was able to snap some photos.

From the wooden viewing deck you can climb the stairs to level 57  (highest floor) for some of Marina Bay Sands bars and restaurants.

Sunset at Morong, Bataan



"Every sunset brings the promise of a new dawn"
– Ralph Waldo Emerson


Time stands still whenever I watch the sun setting. There is something about the amazing change of colors that mesmerizes me and reminds me how fortunate I am to be witnessing such beauty. If something is bothering me, the beach has always been my happy place, sitting in the powdery sand and watching the natural beauty as it unfolds drives off my fears and worries away. And as I watch the day ending, no matter how bad my day may have been, I am optimistic to see the new dawn.


"Each golden sunrise ushers in new opportunities for those who retain faith in themselves, and keep their chins up... Meet the sunrise with confidence. Fill every golden minute with right thinking and worthwhile endeavor. Do this and there will be joy for you in each golden sunset."
- Alonzo Newton Benn


After experiencing a tragic event in our lives, we packed our bags, drove away from home without a destination in mind and found ourselves in Morong Bataan. We were not sorry. We had the chance to spend quality time together and Morong beach provided us the solitude we've been longing for. Watching the magical sunset gave us hope to move forward in life and helped us see things clearly.

Amazing sunset right? If you want to visit Morong please check my  earlier post for accommodations and direction. 


"At the beach, life is different. Time doesn't move hour to hour but mood to moment. We live by the currents, plan by the tides, and follow the sun."
