*Beautiful airport. Among the top 10 in the world.* It's like a mix of the automated airport from Munich and the very well decorated international airport in Mumbai. Great airport on this massive scale. The smaller airports can be more simple and easy. For a large airport, it's very difficult to do the same kind of simplicity. The airport in Singapore is well connected to the city, which is much better than in many places, where one has to buy expensive shuttle buses to get to the city.
