If calm is one of life's ultimate luxuries, then one of the best ways to capture it is by giving yourself up to the sensation of being boundless that comes with the view from an infinity pool. Usually perched in precarious places, they create a singularly seamless vision. Any sense of danger falls away as they encourage you to drift into another dimension that looks never-ending.
I am staring out across a vast expanse of silvery blue pool to the skyscrapers of Singapore, only thing is I am higher that most of them.This is the Marina Bay Sands incredible infinity pool, floating a staggering 656 feet (200 metres) up in the sky.
