Lights At The Shoppes

This is one of the entrances to The Shoppes from the Marina Bay Waterfront.

The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands is one of Singapore’s higher than high end shopping malls with over 800,000 square feet of high-end retail shops. If you have the money to spend, you will be treated like a royalty by the concierge or personal shopping service. The mall’s design is futuristic – no less. One of attractive features are giant glass windows that rise up to the ceiling.

I have never been into any of the shops. I am too self conscious to do that. Knowing that I could not afford – nor do I need anything from the shops, I didn’t see any point in wasting time – the salesperson’s and mine. Most of the brands have names I can’t even pronounce.

However, I have dined in a couple of the restaurants there. Needless to say, I had to pay a bit more for my meals. But sometimes, you have to enjoy life a bit and not worry too much about money. So, once in a while, when friends suggest we do something different and treat ourselves, we will go and have a wander around the waterfront promenade and the Shoppes mall before going for a meal at one of the restaurants.

I was there on Thursday after visiting the Gardens by the Bay. I had to pass by the mall on the way to the train station. So, I thought I would have a wander around the mall and see what they had in the way of Christmas Decorations this year.

Here are some photos I took. I have never seen so many lights in a shopping mall. They are a mall of its kind, so I guess their decor has to be a bit different too. No doubt some will like it, and some would find it too 'flashy'.
