Sentosa island in Singapore


Sentosa, which translates to peace and tranquility in Malay (derived from Santosha in Sanskrit), is a popular island resort in Singapore. Attractions include a 2-kilometre long sheltered beach, Fort Siloso, two golf courses and two five-star hotels, and the Resorts World Sentosa, featuring the theme park Universal Studios Singapore. Although during our 1st visit to Sentosa last 2006, there were no Resorts World Sentosa and Universal Studio Singapore.
