3 of the World's Most Extraordinary Pools
by Kevin Smith AuthorAre you looking for a unique summer vacation? Maybe you should try
swimming in one of the world's most extraordinary pools. Here are a few
examples of these incredible attractions you can visit.
The Tank, Golden Nugget Hotel, Las Vegas
People often go swimming to relax and unwind, but at this
particular location, it may give you quite the adrenaline rush! The Golden
Nugget Hotel is famous for having a pool that sits right next to a 200,000-gallon
shark tank. Guests can take a dip while watching these aquatic predators and
300 other types of marine life float by.
The most remarkable feature of this aquarium is its slide that cuts
across the middle of the tank. You can slip down the rectangular tube while
being surrounded by sharks on all sides. It'll make you feel like they're
floating right beside you.
Neptune Pool, Hearst Castle, California
Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to bathe among the
ancient Greeks and Romans? With the Hearst Castle Neptune Pool, you can have a
taste of history. This outdoor swimming area is built in the middle of
beautiful Grecian and Roman architecture. Different sculptures, alabaster
lanterns, marble pavilions, and colonnades line its perimeter. There's even a
replica of a temple facade that features giant columns and intricate carvings.
Getting access to this attraction will cost you, though. The
Hearst Castle Foundation requires guests to have a membership valued at around $500,
while a ticket for one of its swimming events is $950. It's open to the public ,
times a year, and only 40 people are
allowed to swim per day.
Marina Bay Sands, Singapore
To feel like you're on top of the world, take a dip in the
Marina Bay Sands pool in Singapore. It's found on the 57th floor at a height of
200 feet. It's considered to be both the highest swimming area and infinity
pool on the planet. Its sides are entirely invisible, making it seem as though
there's nothing holding the water back from spilling over the edge. You'll
enjoy a spectacular view of the gorgeous city skyline while relaxing in its
cool waters.
Unfortunately, the hotel doesn't allow just anyone to use this
attraction. You need to be a guest to get access to it. You may also have to
schedule your visit since the number of people who can swim in it at any time
is limited.
These are some attractions you can visit for an amazing vacation. If
you want to bring the experience home and build something similar right in your
backyard, contact one of the swimming pool
contractors in Atlanta.
