Get ready to enjoy walking around Sentosa even more the next time you're there, courtesy of the new Sentosa Sensoryscape.
The new garden walkway, which opens to the public on Mar 14, will connect Resorts World Sentosa to the island’s beaches. Along the 350m-long path, you’ll find an assortment of majestic gardens and breathtaking displays that will delight your senses.
Here’s a quick look at what Sentosa Sensoryscape has for you and your loved ones.
1. LOOKOUT LOOP
Surrounded by tall trees and verdant greenery, the Lookout Loop is an open plaza with a spiral walkway at its centre. Follow the path up and you’ll come face-to-face with panoramic views of the sea and surrounding foliage.
There will also be pre-programmed intermittent mist effects that will cool down visitors so that they can enjoy the sights in comfort.
2. TACTILE TRELLIS
Feel a whole array of sensations at Tactile Trellis, located a short walk away from Lookout Loop. The garden comprises petal-like concrete elements and touch-responsive plants – giving you a fun, interactive experience.
3. SCENTED SPHERE
If Tactile Trellis was all about touch, then Scented Sphere is all about smell. The structure boasts scented foliage so you can take in natural, therapeutic fragrances as you admire nature.
4. SYMPHONY STREAMS
We all know how calming listening to flowing water can be. At Symphony Streams, water trickles down from various pods, creating polyphonic effects. As such, visitors can unwind to the serene sounds, coupled with the calming coastal breeze.
5. PALATE PLAYGROUND
The space is a literal adventure for your taste buds as it is home to many edible plants, from aromatic herbs to exotic spices. Some of the potential activities that can be held here include herb and spice workshops, tea tastings and meditation classes.
6. GLOW GARDEN
Located at the southern end of Sentosa Sensoryscape, Glow Garden is flanked by rows of mesmerising giant flower stalks. At night, these stalks come to life as they rhythmically shift colours and illuminate the plaza.
7. IMAGINITE
Unlike the other points featured on this list, ImagiNite is not a structure but rather an experience. At night, guests at Sentosa Sensoryscape will be immersed in a nature-inspired soundscape, that’s bolstered with projection mapping and augmented reality.
The experience will span across the multiple gardens at Sentosa Sensoryscape and follows a mystical being that “keeps watch over Sentosa”.
To get to Sentosa Sensoryscape, visitors can drop off at Imbiah Station and follow the path. However, if you’re coming from other parts of Sentosa, check out the map below to see how you can access the pathway.
