Universal Studio



Universal studios Singapore is the newest and largest theme park in all Singapore, which is an addition to Resirt World Sentosa Island. It is the second Universal Studios theme park in Asia and the first in Southeast Asia. This theme park is owned by the Genting Group, which is the trade name of Geting Berhad, established in 1964 by Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong, who is a Malaysian entrepreneur. He is also the owner of Genting Highlands, also a famous resort and theme park. The Universal Studios Singapore started construction in Aprill 19th of 2007 and was not finished until Narch 18th 2010. It took them almost three years to complete the construction of this vast theme park. The park has been arranged into 7 different zones; Holloywood Boulevard, island of Nadagascar from the Madagascar movie, Far Far Away from Sherk, The Lost World from Jurassic Park, Ancient Egypt from the Mummies, Sci-fi City, New York. Each zone has a different set of attractions. For example, in the Far Far Away zone, there is a 4D adventure story that includes Shrek and Donkey. This is the only zone that has such an attraction, the rest have rides and shops. Every zone has a shop with vintage items that can only be purchased at Universal Studios Singapore, which is perfect as souvenires for friends and family. It was a blast. We paid about 63 Singapore dollars for the ticket to get in and we got to ride and play every single ride in the park until it closed. This theme park is still very new, since many of the zones are from movies that were recently released and some of the zones were not yet finished, although it was okay, because we had fun on the rides from the other zones.
