Universal Studio Singapore - Ancient Egypt - Part 2

This is the Treasure Hunter ride suitable for children, elderly and people like me who dont like or too scared to try out the roller coasters.


You may have to face the cobra, crocodiles, etc before you can find any treasure in here. (They are actually fakes.) I have no idea why my cobra is upside down, no matter how many times I loaded it...lol. Could be the mummy's curse....eeekkkk.

Sky Watch Friday - Universal Studio - Ancient Egypt Part 1

This is the set of Ancient Egypt in Universal Studio Singapore. A bit frightening with all these statues. I actually almost fall when I was looking at all these statues...lol. Had a small cut on my finger and quite a lot of blood flowing from just a tiny cut in my finger - so strange. Maybe it is the mummy curse...eek!

These statues are all very huge and tall.



Inside is a thrill ride only for those very brave and daring. Of course timid me did not go for the ride. The Revenge of the Mummy is a thrill ride that plunges into total darkness in this indoor roller coaster as you face the warrior mummies on a psychological thrill ride.

You can see how huge and tall the statues are as compared with the crew people on the ground.

Nice place to have your photos taken in here.

Universal Studio Singapore - Sci Fi City

This is Sci Fi City. The roller coaster was not opened yet cause it did not pass the safety test. I think the chairs are not suitable and they are replacing with stronger and safer chairs.

There's the red and blue track. The blue track goes up, around and upside down with intense corkscrews and cobra roll (according to the information I found on the guide.)

While the red track zoom at speeds of 90 km/h, the seated coaster narrowly avoids collisions as it twists, turns and propels you over 14 storeys into the air. (information from the guide.)

Oh my, I am not going in any of the red or blue track....not for the faint hearted or elderly or kids.

Not easy for these entertainers, besides wearing thick costumes, some got to be on stilts.

This is the accelerator that whirl and twirl. Oh my, I have to close my eyes cause I can feel that I am seeing things going round and round...lol.

I did not take much photos of the rest of the Sci Fi City. There's a spray mist to cool visitors at the park.
