To see the SkyPark is to have an appreciation for the amount of work and skill that went into successfully completing such a challenging project. Not only is it unique, but it is amazing. And the views are unforgettable, even from the hotel rooms, where people will get views of the city skyline, as well as the South China Sea. Quite possibly, this is a place that when people check in, they may not want to leave.
