55 storeys up , this eternity pool could glide you straight over the sharpness of Singapore , if not the world . It ’s part of the $ 6 billion Marina Bay Sands Skypark hotel , which just opened this week .
Ok , so if you were really to prompt yourself over the edge , you ’d fall down into a catchment - region which sends the excess water directly back into the puddle . But where ’s the fun in that ? The pool itself is three time the length of an Olympic - sized pool , and is the largest syndicate in the world at that height reportedly .
Another earth record has been broken , with the hotel also becoming the most expensive hotel — knock Abu Dhabi ’s Emirates Palace Hotel off it pedestal , which cost a measly $ 3 billion to build back in 2004 .
The pool runs across three of the hotel ’s tower , which feature indoor canals , casinos , shop , theaters and a museum . As well as the hotel room you ’d expect . Do n’t expect to be persist here on your next sojourn to Singapore though , as entering to the casino alone costs $ 70 . [ La RepubblicaviaDesignBoom ]
UPDATE : Apparently the casino charge is only to residents of Singapore , whose administration wishes to discourage them from gambling . Foreigners can enter the casino for barren — though to look off the observation deck , that ’ll be $ 20 .
