Sentosa is the island off the coast of the Central region, Singapore. It was planned to become a major tourist destination, and seems to have achieved that goal, although there are constant changes happening over there. When any tourist plans a trip to Singapore, a part of that trip has to be dedicated to Sentosa, given the number of attractions it has. It has beaches, aquariums, thrills in the forms of a water park and the ever popular Universal Studios Park (which atleast takes up a huge chunk of time, especially on weekends when it can get very busy), and many hotels and restaurant areas. There is in fact an entry fee to get into Sentosa, a small one though, no matter which method you use to get into the island.

This is one of the ways to get entry into the island of Sentosa, and it is a pretty spectacular method. There is a cable car that takes from entry stations in the Central region of Singapore and into the heart of Sentosa. The cable car provides a spectacular view of many parts of Sentosa, and the coastal part of Singapore that is closest to it. Right in front is one of the towers, part of the infrastructure on which the cable car runs. Below is the shipping lane, which can get pretty busy and with a number of passenger and other ships in the water.
