I can’t think of anything better than a warm 32°C pool soothing all my aches and pains away from skiing and hiking on the slopes of Switzerland.

Breathe in the crisp air, relax and then do it all over again the next day.

The rooftop infinity pool at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore is already well-known to all who wish, and have already visited the Lion City.
