Singapura, oh Singapura! (My Singapore Tour) DAY 7: SINGAPORE FLYER

How time flies! Tomorrow, I’m heading back to Manila.

As my six-day Singapore vacation comes to a close, it's best to go out for some laid back sight-seeing tour for one last time.

So my sister and her boyfriend brought me to the 165-meter-high Singapore Flyer!
Welcome to Singapore Flyer!
Known as the world’s largest observation wheel, the Singapore Flyer gives its passengers a spectacular view of Singapore in every turn. It has 28 air-conditioned capsules which can accommodate up to 28 passengers each. The ride takes 30 minutes to finish, enough for you to capture those scenic landscapes in your camera!

But before boarding, passengers will pass through the Journey of Dreams, a multimedia gallery that engages tourists into a deeper appreciation and understanding of the Singapore Story and the iconic Singapore Flyer. Definitely a unique pre-flight experience!
Flight Entrance. A kind of long walk before you finally reach the Flyer. :)

The Oneiro's Orb - consist of myriad circular artefacts
from the past and present to represent the Flyer's

And the REAL JOURNEY STARTS HERE!
