Singapore Cable Car
by Willettsworld
The Singapore Cable Car is the aerial link between Mount Faber on Singapore mainland and Sentosa Island. The idea of a cable-car system to link Singapore and Sentosa came as early as 1968. The S$5.8 million project began in 1972, and the cable-car opened to the public on 15 February 1974. The system ply’s between the Jewel Box Station on Mount Faber, 93 meters above sea level, and Sentosa Station, 47 meters above sea level. In between these two "terminals" is the Harbour Front Station, 69 meters above sea level. In addition, there are two supporting towers which are each 80 meters in height. The total distance between Mount Faber and Sentosa station is 1650 meters.
