Mere months after the end of Voyage de la Vie‘s record run, Resorts World Sentosa announced a new show to grace the Festive Grand theatre. Billed as a theatrical magic spectacular, Incanto is truly a spectacle – 90 minutes packed with heart-stopping action, and bewildering illusions.

I caught the show last week during the opening weekend. Here is my (hopefully short) review of Incanto.

Marine Life Park: S.E.A. Aquarium – sneak peek

By on November 10, 2012 in Attractions, Theme Parks

Viewing a Shipwreck

I’ve provided a lot of aerial photography updates on Marine Life Park, with my Marine Life Park – from the air series. As only the Adventure Cove Waterpark is built above ground, there isn’t much coverage on the S.E.A Aquarium. However, there were interesting changes recently. Here’s a sneak peek at S.E.A Aquarium, the world’s largest oceaniarium.

S.E.A. Aquarium (Southeast Asia Aquarium) is home to over 800 species of marine animals. It promises the world’s largest window to the ocean and is also the world’s largest aquarium. Exhibits at S.E.A. Aquarium will bring guests on a discovery tour of marine life and environments, from Southeast Asia to African subcontinent, possibly more. There will be a mix of different viewing windows, from the usual glass walls, to a mega glass wall, aquarium tunnels and overhead viewing panels, as well as some smaller open tanks with interactive exhibits.

In this entry, we’ll look at:

– Location and Entrance of S.E.A. Aquarium
– Layout of S.E.A. Aquarium
– Complete list of exhibits at S.E.A. Aquarium
– Photos of some Exhibits!

Halloween Horror Nights 2 – Final Night

By on October 31, 2012 in Attractions, Halloween Horror Nights, Photos, Theme Parks

It has been said that the final night of any Halloween Horror Nights event is the best night to visit. The park would have improved on its issues faced in earlier nights. Scare actors would have immersed very deeply into their roles, that they could put on their best and scariest performance. Eventually, the every element in the event becomes part of a well-oiled machine.

Domains of Fear is a series of features offering extended coverage on Halloween Horror Nights 2 at Universal Studios Singapore (USS). These feature articles complement the Halloween Horror Nights 2 review.

Each entry will focus a specific element of Halloween Horror Nights 2 (HHN2). For the fourth issue, also the Halloween Special, we revisit the park during the last night of HHN2. More pictures, videos and new content not covered before can be found in this final feature.

At last, we step into a bazaar in Ancient Egypt. In this small crowded marketplace lies several mysterious stalls, where macabre businesses operate and strange gruesome rituals never end. Stroll at your own risk, and be careful what you bargained for.

“…Please stand by”

The once beautiful New York zone at Universal Studios Singapore is now bathed with mayhem. With destruction and radiation poisoning spinning out of control, the government has enforced a quarantine. The shell-shocked survivors are still suffering, desperate for relief, coping with both radiation poisoning, injuries and loss. There appears to be little hope for the city.
