Sentosa, which translates to peace and tranquility in Malay (derived from Santosha in Sanskrit), is a popular island resort in Singapore, visited by some five million people a year. Attractions include a two-kilometre long sheltered beach, Fort Siloso, two golf courses and two star hotels, and the Resorts World Sentosa, featuring the theme park Universal Studios Singapore.
Sentosa was once known as Pulau Blakang Mati which in Malay means the "Island (pulau) of Death (mati) from behind (blakang)".
