Jewel Changi Airport, Shopping center at Changi Airport, Singapore
Jewel Changi Airport is a shopping and dining complex at Singapore's airport, housed under a large glass dome that rises several stories. The structure contains open levels connected by walkways, with planted areas rising from the lower floors toward the center.
The complex was built during the middle years of the 2010s and opened to visitors in spring 2019. Its design reflected Singapore's goal of extending the airport's role beyond transit and connecting it to the city's wider appeal.
The water display dropping through the center draws families and travelers who gather around it throughout the day to watch the flow. After dark, colored lights and music accompany the falling water.
Travelers waiting for departing flights can check in early and leave their bags, then spend time browsing or eating before heading to their gate. The building connects directly to the arrival and departure halls of each terminal.
The upper levels hold a forest walk with suspended bridges that passes through dense greenery and is barely visible from ground level. Visitors cross floating paths several stories above the main floor.
