the DHL Balloon

Another attraction in Singapore is to take the helium balloon ride.
It's located next to Bugis Junction, a popular shopping center in Singapore.

You will be up 150 m in the sky (or around 40 storeys) enjoying a breath-taking 360 degree panoramic view of the city.



I have yet to take the ride, just happen to take a photo of this balloon from afar. The next time I take it, I shall post it here.

I like you photograph but am afraid of high places except airplanes. This would make me afraid.

I would love to take a ride on a balloon, although I must admit I would a bit scared. Still, I think I would do it.

actually, if you notice the cable at the bottom of the basket (in the photo), it ALWAYS remains in place even when the balloon is in flight, so the balloon would never "fly away", it only goes as far as the cable length, then that's it... so its safe... you won't end up in timbuktoo... hahaha...
