New Attractions at Sentosa, Singapore




As a top Sightseeing Location in Singapore, Sentosa’s 500-hectare space is filled with numerous attractions that serve every type of visitor. Management at this favorite holiday spot are constantly revamping existing attractions and creating wonderful new reasons to visit. Worth highlighting are the following.


SINGAPORE CABLE CAR

Take a ride on Singapore’s iconic cable car that is now bigger, bolder and bejeweled after a major makeover. A stunning fleet of 67 metallic black and chrome cabins will take you from Mount Faber on the mainland to Sentosa island offering a 360- degree bird’s eye view of lush greenery on the hilltop, the harbor and the city, all from 120 meters above sea level. At night, each cabin is illuminated by jewel LEDs, creating a sparkling effect as they zip through the black canvas of the night sky. The lavish interior includes large panoramic windows, flip-up seats, which can accommodate 8, a 12.1” LED interactive touch screen infotainment system with 8 language options and a removable table with cup-holders for Sky Dining. Wheelchair and pram friendly facilities are also available. The new Jewel cabins are popular for special occasions like weddings, birthdays, anniversaries and company events.
