Arriving at Changi Airport at 1 PM! With about 12 hours of transit until the 1 AM flight.
This chance to take a little trip can’t be missed…!💨
🧭Transit Flow (Briefly)
- After arrival, pass through immigration and exit
- Suitcases are checked through, so you’re light and free!🧳
- Follow airport signs to the MRT (subway) station
- From Changi Airport to the city, you can take the MRT Airport Line (a branch of the East-West Line). Board the train bound for Tuas Link at Changi Airport Station, transfer to the East-West Line at Tanah Merah Station, and get off at City Hall Station (closest to the National Gallery and Merlion Park). The trip takes about 50 minutes.

🌟Start sightseeing with the classic “Marina Bay Sands” and “Merlion”!
The blue sky and architectural beauty lift your spirits⛅️✨
🌳Then, take a short walk to “Gardens by the Bay.”
This time I visited during the day, but next time I want to come during the light-up hours…🌃🪴
🍽️Feeling a bit hungry, I moved to “The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands.”
Of course, I got the classic TWG tea as a souvenir🫖
The Chinese set I ordered at the food court:
- Juicy shrimp dumplings🦐
- Sticky rice and pork wrapped in leaves🍖
- The flavorful soup was also exquisite◎
💜Back at the airport, I took a break at Jewel.
I chose a chocolate-flavored acai bowl at “An Açaí Affair”🍫🍇
Healthy and rich, it healed my travel fatigue.
💦Finally, the highlight: the famous “Changi Airport Fountain Show”✨
