Visit to Changi Airport Terminal 3 (Open House)


After our church service and quick lunch, we spent a great time exploring Terminal 3 (T3) of Changi International Airport this afternoon before its opening to the public on 9 Jan 08. We took the skytrain service from T2 to T3 and arrived at the magnificent departure hall. The hall's ceiling is designed to allow natural sunlight to penetrate into the interior, yet regulating its intensity and keeping the hall sufficiently cool.

We were impressed by the "green wall" and landscaping at the arrival hall. Imagine walking into a garden after a tiring flight --- what a soothing thought!

At the viewing gallery, the authority has installed a koi pond and a butterfly garden to pamper the public.

The kids have had a wonderful time running around the restricted areas and halls. We also took this opportunity to educate them about aviation history and some of the screening process at customs and immigration.
