Singapore Flyer, Singapore Overview
Standing at a magnificent height of 165 metres, the Singapore Flyer is Asia's largest giant observation wheel. The Flyer has always been one of the attractions that mark Singapore unique and one of its kind. The Flyer was built right in the middle of the city and overlooks some of the most glorious attractions of Singapore. The 360 panoramic view is absolutely breathtaking and can be enjoyed along with several optional luxuries that the flyer provides to its guests.
View from the top
While being at the top of the city in the flyer, there are several attractions, which make up Singapore, that you can witness. Attractions such as Collyer Quay, The Helix Bridge, Fort Canning Park, and Empress Place are visible to the naked eye. More astonishing attractions that can be viewed on top of the flyer are-
The Float @ Marina Bay
The colourful float at Marina Bay is an impressive structure on the waters of Singapore that is clearly visible from the Flyer. The Float made architectural history by being the world's largest floating performance stage on water. This impressive feat has always been a source of pride for Singapore.
Esplanade: Theatres On The Bay
Lying next to the Float at Marina Bay, the dome-shaped Esplanade Theatre is the most impressive performing arts venue in Singapore. The massive theatre contains a concert hall, a 2000 seat theatre, outdoor performance stages and several recital rooms. It also houses an arts library and shopping mall and several outlets, making it one of the most anticipated attractions for several tourists.
Merlion Park
The 8.6-metre tall statue on the south bank of the Singapore River has always been interlaced with the history of Singapore and is, therefore, a popular tourist attraction. The statue's massive form is very catchy, and the half-fish half-lion can consequently not be missed, especially from the view of the Flyer.
F1 Circuit
The F1 Circuit received a warm welcome by the streets of Singapore when it was first introduced in 2008. Since then, the motor racing streets have become especially popular and thrilling experience. The best place to witness these racing cars zooming pass the roads is, of course, the Singapore Flyer Observation Wheel.

Rainforest
