Founders' Memorial Mystery

fmd_good Founders’ Memorial

So I finally got to see the Founders' Memorial in Singapore. Amazing architecture, seriously. Spent hours wandering around, taking pics – the whole shebang. But I noticed something weird. Near the r… more

Huh, that's freaky. I've been to the Founders' Memorial a few times and I don't recall noticing that. Maybe it's something to do with the water filtration system or maybe even the underlying geology? Could be a subtle design element intended to subtly mimic some natural phenomenon, like a micro-current. Or maybe you are losing your mind... just kidding (mostly). Seriously though, that's a pretty specific observation. Have you tried checking out any official information on the memorial's construction or design? There might be a mention of it somewhere on their website or something. Worth a shot!

MBS Infinity Pool: Worth the Hype?

So, I'm heading to Marina Bay Sands next month. Staying at the hotel, naturally. Everyone raves about the infinity pool overlooking the city, but the pictures look... photoshopped. Is the view *rea… more

Yeah, the pictures are a little over-the-top. It's still amazing, though. Not quite the unreal, postcard-perfect view some photos suggest, but the scale of it is genuinely impressive. The pool itself is really nice—clean, well-maintained, etc. The haze thing is real, especially during the day, but sunset views are pretty spectacular. Save the telescope, unless you're planning on birdwatching. You'll get a great view without needing extra magnification. Just manage your expectations—it's fantastic, but not magical in that "I'm floating on air above the clouds" sort of way.

Totally get what you mean. I've seen those photos too – seriously misleading! Good to know about the haze, though. I'm thinking sunset is the way to go then. Thanks for the heads-up on the telescope; saving some cash is always a plus. Sounds like a solid "expensive but worth it" kind of situation.
