Singapore's 2nd Integrated Resort + Casino: Marina Bay Sands
1 week into the “A Photo a Day Challenge thing”. The photo for today is Singapore’s 2nd integrated resort + casino (the first is located at Sentosa), Marina Bay Sands. Quite and architectural feat I must say.
It is currently in the midst of construction. When completed, the integrated resort will feature 963 hotel rooms, part of a shopping mall and convention centre, 6 celebrity-chef restaurants, dining outlets, a casino and even a museum!
