Universal Studios Singapore markets itself as a 'one of a kind theme park in Asia'. And this is very true. It is the centerpiece of the transformation of Sentosa Island into a world-class resort.

Opened in 2011, the 49-acre park has about a dozen attractions , 18 of which are original or specially adapted. Each theme zone is based on a blockbuster movie or a TV show with related attractions, characters, dining and shopping areas.

The world's tallest pair of roller-coasters are based on Battlestar Galactica. There is live music show 'Monster Rock' featuring the infamous Universal Monsters, The Transformers 3D Thrill Ride, etc. - more than enough for any screaming queen.

Take the North East MRT to HarbourFront Station, then transfer to the Sentosa Express or RWS 8 Bus.
