I had the opportunity to visit Riviere which is a luxury residential apartments next to Singapore river that goes up to 36 storeys high. It was where the formal zouk out was.
Their pool is at the ground level and at the sky garden you could see a 360 view of the city skyline even Marina Bay Sands! Or the surrounding area such as the Havelock area (hotels).
Though the city views are mostly blocked by plantations, my assumption is for safety.
The rooftop features, a huge jacuzzi that you can even lay down in just like a sun bed. I also saw hot spa and a really huge trampoline.
Activities in 1 place!
Lake Forest, in the Thousand Island Lake area, is an up and coming development that has lots of different activities to do within the area of beautiful mountains and lakes.
There is a small railway line that can take you to the different attractions, which are still being built, but we stayed near the high rope obstacle course which offers 2 types of physical difficulties. There are also food and washroom facilities available #mountainview #tripblazers #mytripvlog #tripblazers
