Cable Car Towers to Sentosa Island


            About two years ago, I had gone to Singapore for vacation with my family. Me and my family had rented an apartment in the area Orchoad Road for us in Singapore. Because the hotels in the area Orchoad Road was very expensive. When I was there, I had gone to Universal Studios, Jurong Bird Park, VivoCity Mall, Sentosa Island and many more. They were pleasant trip and unforgettable experiences, especially when I had used cabel car from Cabel Car Towers to Sentosa Island.
            As you arrive to Cable Car Towers, the second cable car station between Mount Faber and Sentosa, you can shop, eat or enjoy some entertainment there. Then you can continue your fun ride to Sentosa. It only takes seven minutes from this station to Sentosa. Between Cable Car Towers station and Sentosa is Selegu Tower, which is 90.8 meters above sea level. This station is the highest station among others.
            From the cable car you can enjoy the beauty of Singapore. The land, the building, the sea, and all the ship there are a very beautiful scenery to enjoy. As soon as you arrive at Sentosa you will see how beautiful this island is. Sentosa is a popular island resort in Singapore. It is an artificial island that is separate from the main island of Singapore. The island is very close to Batam and is one of the entertainment center in Singapore. So, don’t forget to visit this fantasy island when you have time to be in Singapore.
