Honestly, I’ve been to a handful of airports across the world and I’m pretty sure Changi Airport might just be one of the rare airports where locals head over just for the fun of it. There are a probably a few reasons for that;

  1. The open layout; So while the airport may be crowded, you don’t feel overwhelmed.
  2. Don’t lie: You’ve spent late nights here cramming for exams.
  3. THE EXHIBITIONS.

One thing that non-travellers can enjoy when they’re at Changi Airport is the exhibitions. Changi seem to come up with a theme ever few weeks because every time I head down there to pick or send someone off there’s a new display up!

A theme park in a mall, has been seen and done. But a rollercoaster in the airport? Now that’s something I have to see. The Great Adventure exhibit targeted children from everywhere around the world.  The exhibit has sand pits, stamps engraved with Chinese characters and of course the mini roller coaster!
