Changi
In the first place we find Changi, the international airport of Singapore. For the second consecutive year and the fifth time in total, this airport has been chosen in the first position because it is more than a sum of terminals and runways. In fact, its managers talking about a travel experience in itself, being the most innovative and surprising.
Inaugurated in 1981, it has been the most voted in the leisure and free time activities section, and it is not surprising, because it has a cinema, a multimedia center and a children’s playground, as well as dozens of other attractions that relieve the wait. One of the last is the Social Tree , built with high definition screens, where travelers can send their photos and videos, which serve to animate the structure.
