Singapore Flyer


A picture of the Singapore Flyer snapped from the highway. Funnily enough, a giant ferris wheel could alter our urban landscape. It's so eye-catching. I've not gone up on it yet (fear, unnecessary risk, blah..) but maybe the whim will catch up with me sooner or later. Like the London Eye, it features exo-capsules attached outward to the wheel structure and one rotational trip lasts about 30 minutes. I think maybe a night ride will be a more glittering experience. From its perch on Marina Promenade, you'll overlook the deep blue sea and catch a panoramic view of the spectacular city skyline.

  1. I hope you pluck up the courage and give it a go, Irene. I've been on the London Eye and the views are great. It sounds from your description that the Singapore Flyer will be a similar experience with beautiful and varied views. And then you can post some photos of that too!

  2. I rode on it once, and visited it again just last week with a group of underprivileged children but I didn't join them for the ride. I stayed on the ground to prepared games for them to play after the ride.

  3. I agree, give it a go! A little adrenalin is good for the soul.
