2025 Singapore Changi Airport Region Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

My first trip to Singapore with an unprepared budget but a willing heart ⸻ Going back almost ten years ago… I was staring at AirAsia’s promotional ticket for Bangkok–Singapore, round trip for 1,800 baht. The hand that pressed the booking button didn’t have a lot of money, but my heart wanted to “Go out and see the world once.” And that was my first international trip. The time I was the poorest…but I got the most in my life. ⸻ 💡 4 days 3 nights travel plan (for people who have no money but have heart) ⸻ 💤 Day 1 — Arrive at midnight, the airport is cold, but keep going • ✈️ Landed at Changi at midnight • No place to stay, so sat in front of McDonald’s all night, tried to sleep, but it was too cold to sleep • Traveled into the city in the morning by MRT • Passed Gardens by the Bay and Marina Bay Sands, but they were not open yet • Waited until 10am, then walked to find a very cheap street food shop • 🏨 Stayed at: 5footway.inn Project Chinatown 2 • Leave the bag first because you can’t check in yet • Good location, very close to MRT and Chinatown • 🛕 Continue to Buddha Tooth Relic Temple • Pray for a smooth journey And make life ahead better • 🦁 Walk to Merlion Park • Stand and look at the water-spouting lions, thinking to yourself, "Even though we don't have much... we've arrived." • 🌙 In the evening, come back to eat a single-dish meal at Chinatown and then take a nap to regain your strength. ⸻ 🏛 Day 2 — All-day museum and special meal with relatives • 🎟 Visit the National Museum of Singapore • If you like history and beautiful exhibitions, don't miss it. • Inside, there are both multimedia zones and interesting antiques. • Very suitable for those who are on a budget because the entrance fee is not expensive but you get a lot. • 🍲 Lunch: A relative who works in Singapore took me to eat Bak Kut Teh at a famous restaurant. • I was touched by both the taste and the kindness that helped fill the day of those who had no budget. • 💦 Walk in line at the Fountain of Wealth • The Fountain of Wealth... People with no money come to ask for wealth. It's hopeful. • 🌇 Evening, enjoy the view at Gardens by the Bay • This time, I got in. The view from the Skywalk in the evening is the best. • Take some photos, collect lots of memories. ⸻ 🎢 Day 3 — A day to let go and have fun at Universal Studios Singapore • 🏰 Full-day trip to USS • Even though the budget is limited, I intend to spend a full day at the theme park. • Advantages of coming alone: I get to use the Single Rider channel, which allows me to play all kinds of rides very quickly. • It's as fun as other people, but I pay less (and don't have to wait for anyone). • 🍛 Evening, come back to eat something easy at Chinatown. • I don't have the energy to walk far, and I'm running out of money. But my heart is still full. ⸻ 🌴 Day 4 — Sentosa, the last round before returning to Thailand • ⛴ Take a car to Sentosa Island • Stop to see the big Merlion • Walk to see the beach view and the atmosphere of the island without spending money • 📸 Walk around, take the most photos on this trip • Because I knew I had to go back today • 🎒 In the evening, I went back to pack my bags and rushed to the airport • My heart still wanted to stay…but my bag and money told me to go back to Thailand first ⸻ 💭 Summary of this trip “You don’t need to have everything…to travel.” Sometimes, just dare to leave your usual place Experience will come to you. • I can’t sleep at the airport • Walk almost everywhere • Eat one dish almost every meal • But I don’t feel lacking… except for “time” that I want more ⸻ 📌 For those who want to try this • Try starting from a nearby country like Singapore • Use a loose plan, be open-minded • Don’t let money be the only excuse that makes you not dare to travel ⸻ 📸 The photos from this trip may not be luxurious… but they are proof that “Ordinary people can travel if they dare.” #Traveling alone #Traveling abroad for the first time #Traveling without money #SingaporeTrip #Backpack #You can travel while sleeping at the airport #TripMoments #Backpacking #Traveling to think #Merlion #GardensByTheBay #Traveling to Singapore #SoloTrip #Dare and go #singapore #singaporeguide #Get a discount without luck

#100TravelTips 👏 Shake Shack Burger at Changi Airport, Singapore is a convenient option for a delicious meal while waiting for your flight. The burger tastes good, the meat is juicy, the sauce is thick, the bread is soft, but overall the taste is a bit salty. The French fries are fried crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, but still a bit salty. The atmosphere of the shop is lively, as is typical of airport shops. The price is quite high compared to the quality and quantity. If you want to try Shake Shack, you might want to try the cheaper branch in the city, which is more worthwhile. 📍Changi Airport #SlothTrip #thailand #travel #onedaytrip #familytrip #goodatmosphere #ThaisTravelThailand #TravelThailand #TravelAlongTheWay #CafeReview #BeautifulCafeShare #LifeAddictedToCafes #MustVisitCafes #CafesTakeBeautifulPhotos #TripFreeAccommodation #TripDiscount #100TravelTips #GetDiscountsWithoutLuck

So let the sunrises and sunflowers inspire you to seize the day and let the beauty of life bloom around you. 🌻🌞

I went to Singapore! This time, I booked Singapore Airlines, and thanks to booking early on Trip.com, I managed to get a round-trip ticket for just around 60,000 yen 🥲. The service was excellent, the in-flight meals were delicious, and the time flew by while watching movies! This was my second time visiting Singapore, and I had a blast again enjoying Universal Studios Singapore and indulging in my favorite Song Fa Bak Kut Teh. It was incredibly hot, so I had a grapefruit smoothie from Heytea, which was perfect for the summer heat—absolutely refreshing! At Changi Airport's Jewel, I bought souvenirs and relaxed, making the most of my time in Singapore until the very end! I can't wait to go back again~

[Transit in Malaysia → Enjoying Changi Airport upon arrival] This trip took me to Singapore's Changi Airport via Malaysia! Although the layover was a bit long, I refreshed myself with drinks and snacks at Kuala Lumpur Airport and safely arrived at Changi Airport✨ The first thing that amazed me upon arrival was the stunning beauty of the airport. It truly lives up to its reputation as "the world's best airport"! One of the most captivating sights was the indoor waterfall "Rain Vortex" inside Jewel. The water curtain cascading from a height of about 40 meters is absolutely breathtaking, with a futuristic vibe that makes it a perfect photo spot📸✨. The lighting changes between day and night, offering different views, making you want to visit it again and again. Additionally, the "Sunflower Garden" at Terminal 2 is equally impressive! The sunflowers blooming with the runway in the background create a resort-like atmosphere that makes it hard to believe you're inside an airport🌻. Just strolling around here is incredibly soothing. Changi Airport is packed with free facilities that ensure you never feel bored during your layover. Whether you arrive early or stop by during transit, the airport itself offers enough to make you feel like you're already on vacation! 📍Spot Information - Singapore Changi Airport - Jewel (JEWEL) Level 1: Rain Vortex - Terminal 2 Outdoor: Sunflower Garden - Access: About 30 minutes by MRT from the city center - Airport → City: Taxi approximately 20–30 minutes (around S$25)

Changi Airport, a renowned spot in Singapore, features the Rain Vortex located within Jewel. The light-up and light show here are a must-see. While many visit during the day, the shows held at 8:00 PM and 9:00 PM, each lasting 5 minutes, are the real highlight. On Fridays, weekends, and public holidays, an additional show is held at 10:00 PM, making it worth returning to the airport from the city just to witness it! 📍Location: 60 Airport Blvd., Singapore 819643 🕰️Hours: Open 24 hours

Changi International Airport is a regular in the world's airport rankings. In 2024, it fell to second place, but the reason for this is that the terminal is directly connected to the huge shopping mall "Jewel." The mall, which has a vast area of ​​land that is unimaginable on a Japanese scale, has gardens, attractions, hotels, and about 300 retail stores and restaurants, so you can spend a normal day there. The world's tallest indoor artificial waterfall is said to be the symbol of the airport. It is called "Rain Vortex." Literally translated, it means "rain whirlpool," but it is unclear because it was a clear day when I visited and the blue sky could be seen behind the glass, but I wonder if it flows here when it rains? From what I've seen on blogs and vlogs, some people write that this is also a power spot, but there is no particular historical reason for it. However, if it is a spot where sunny travelers who make the effort to visit here gather, it must be full of positive power. #AsiaTravel #Tourism

It's a very beautifully designed airport, but it's not as good as our Thai airport! Hehe But it's an airport that once you step in, you'll see the security system and the strict work of the staff. If I hadn't come to the meeting of the Sangha, I definitely wouldn't have had this opportunity. #triptakesyoutoflyandaskfornewyearblessings #ChangiAirport #SingaporeAirport #VisitSingapore #Pleasefollow #DhammaTravelBhikkhu #Mayyoubeblessed

If we talk about another big and wide airport, it's Changi Airport, Singapore. The facilities are very good, close to tourist attractions, just a short walk to the subway, very convenient. The food is a bit expensive, but if we walk well, there should be a place to eat that's not expensive. Singapore has temples that Thai people like to worship. The people seem friendly. There are many places to take pictures. You can come visit for those who like to travel. Another recommended place.

My first time visiting Singapore. It's a very beautiful airport. #Beautiful place to take photos

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck#TravelingSingaporeByYourself #ChangiAirport Changi Airport is one of the top airports. From the information I received, when I arrived, I realized that it was very spacious. I didn't know where to sit. We arrived on a late flight until midnight. We waited for the train to start service, so we had to sleep in the airport. Sleeping here is very cold. I can't sleep. It's better to walk to challenge the flight at normal time. Or take a taxi to the hotel so you won't be tired. As for the beautiful places, I don't know where they are.😁

I had the opportunity to visit Siwk Pro. I was very lucky to see the roofs of many boats.

Rated as one of the best airports in the world, awarded with a series of prestigious awards, Changi International Airport is one of the places not to be missed when coming to the "Lion Island". Not just an airport, Changi also has countless other interesting things waiting for you to discover!

If you have time, I recommend going to the Jewel building. It's a shopping area and there's a giant waterfall to see. You can take pictures from many angles. It's a fun way to wait for a plane. Check in before the scheduled time so you can see the view and see the train passing by. The view from above is beautiful, but the pictures from below are also beautiful. After taking pictures, you can continue shopping. If you're tired from shopping, there are restaurants and coffee shops. #100 ways to travel #Travel to Singapore by yourself

#ModernArchitecture The first place travelers from all over the world visit is the airport, but there are popular and not so popular airports. Changi International Airport in Singapore is known as the "world's most beautiful airport" and is called the jewel. There are many plants growing around a large waterfall, and you can feel a mist-like sensation from the falling water. This facility is fun just to look at, but I think it's also a great place for shopping. Recommended stores include Starbucks, Tokyu Hands, and NIKE. I'm happy that I can also complete the tax-free procedures at the airport.
