Resorts World Sentosa is the first integrated resort in development stages on the island of Sentosa, off the southern coast of Singapore. The key attractions include one of Singapore's two casinos, a Universal Studios theme park and the world's largest oceanarium. The S$6.59 billion (US$4.93 billion) integrated resort is developed by Genting International, the overseas investment arm of the Genting Group. The mammoth resort occupies over 49 hectares (121 acres) of land and, when fully open, will employ more than 10,000 people directly.
The soft launch of the first four hotels took place on 20 January 2010, with the FestiveWalk shopping mall following on 01 February. The casino opened on 14 February, the first auspicious day of the Chinese New Year.

While the main buildings are open for business, external structures are still under construction. Over here, workers lay the foundation in the seabed...
The entrance is not yet ready with "Sentosa" still boarded up...
The unfinished structure below the new monorail...
Empty space at this amphitheatre will be rare when Sentosa officially opens...
