Marina Bay Sands

The Marina Bay Sands (MBS) is an integrated resort fronting Marina Bay within the historical and downtown centre district of Singapore. At its opening in 2010, it was billed as the world's most expensive standalone casino property at S$8 billion (US$6.88 billion), including the land cost. It is owned by the Singaporean subsidiary of the Las Vegas Sands Corporation.

“Designed by Moshe Safdie, the resort includes a 2,561-room hotel, a 120,000-square-metre convention-exhibition centre, the 74,000-square-metre The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands mall, a museum, a large theatre, "celebrity chef" restaurants, two floating crystal pavilions, art-science exhibits, and the world's largest atrium casino with 500 tables and 1,600 slot machines. The complex is topped by a 340-metre-long Sky Park with a capacity of 3,902 people and a 150 m infinity swimming pool, set on top of the world's largest public cantilevered platform, which overhangs the north tower by 7 m.” - Wikipedia

As of 2020, its crystal pavilions are anchored by an Apple Store and the world's largest Louis Vuitton boutique, both located on a floating island at 1,900 m2, which is connected to the Shoppes via an underwater tunnel. Marina Bay Sands is also set to have a fourth tower constructed in the near future.

The round building is the recently opened Apple store.

The very bright building in the water, which is more or less in the center of the picture, is the Louis Vuitton Boutique.
