Last december I got a chance to visit Changi Airport, Singapore. It was not my destination , actually I was flying to Melbourne through Singapore.. I was really excited to get there and some how I had a feeling that this journey is going to be an unforgettable experience for me. I was going Melbourne via Singapore. I flew to Singapore from Delhi airport. It was around 5:45pm when I reached above the singapore. Fortunately, I got a window seat in aircraft and when I looked down..Awh...it was awesome!! It started drizzling outside but sky was clear and islands and ships around Singapore were quite vivid to me. I was amazed to see the bright and twinkling lights of city, buldings and ships.All of them were making the scene quite magical. Soon I was at the Changi Airport, Singapore. My flight to Melbourne was from terminal 3. And I had to get there through an internal tram inside the airpot.
Until that I had no idea that Changi Airport is one of the best airports in the world. But anyone could guess it easily to have a single look of the airport. However, I took the tram and got down at
terminal 3
