Changi Airport

Jewel Changi Airport was a staggering $1.7B project that has been in anticipation since 2014. After finally opening in April 2019, the general public can finally see what the hype was all about.

Designed by Safdie Architects, the Jewel Changi Airport is a fantastic structure with retail, dining, gardens, activity areas, and breathtaking photo spots. It is a place where tourists, families, couples, and visitors can spend many hours in a day just to relax, shop and have a good time. In this article, we explore 7 things that you can do at Jewel Changi Airport

 

Get lost in the hedge maze

You’ll also get to experience the largest hedge maze in Singapore, right at the heart of Jewel Changi Airport. Going through a confusing and challenging maze, your goal is to reach the WatchTower, which is at the midpoint of the maze.

The Hedge Maze opens daily from 10 am to 10 pm, and if you go in, allow yourself at least thirty minutes in the maze to find the midpoint. After reaching the WatchTower, you will be rewarded with some fantastic views.

 

Bounce on nets

Located on the top floor of the Jewel Changi Airport, the Canopy Park is one of the most famous attractions of the spot. Book the tickets at the fantastic playground, and you can bounce on the nets. It really is quite fun not only for children but also for adults. If you are scared of heights, you can just walk on the nets, but in order to have the whole experience, you must try jumping there. The chilling height and the fun-filled experience make a great combination.

If you are going for bouncing, head over to the bouncing sky net, which is about 250m long. The Bouncing Sky Net is an extended trampoline right above the canopy park, giving an amazing view of the attractions on the lower floors. However, the walking sky net is higher than the jumping sky net. Choose the one you want and hop on. Better yet, try both!

 

Take a stroll in the topiary walk

The Jewel Changi Airport really did its part in finding the best florists in Singapore and making them display their artistry at the eye-catching Topiary Walk. There are hundreds of types of flowers grown there, and you’ll be amazed at how many colours there are.

Walk around the indoor forest

The Shiseido Forest Valley is a peaceful green sanctuary hidden in the hustle and bustle of the busy airport. If you want to get away from the crowd and enjoy some quiet time with plants, Shiseido Forest Valley is the place to go.

Watch a movie at the Shaw theatres

If you want some time sitting in one place but also enjoying yourself, you should watch a movie at the Shaw Theatre. After getting tired from the unending adventures of the Jewel Changi Airport, a lot of people run to the theatre to kill some time.
