The World's Highest Man-made Waterfall At Changi Airport's New Jewel Shopping Mall
Photo from Wikipedia. Photo author Changi Jewel.
We thought it was the new terminal building, Terminal 5, but it isn't. It's a giant building added onto the other terminals which combines shopping mall and indoor nature park. Like gardens By the Bay, which has a giant indoor waterfall.
Night time Attraction
From opening day, Wednesday April 17 2019, you can go there in the daytime, or at night to enjoy seeing everything floodlit.
Here is my bucket List:
1 The waterfall - by day and night
2 The Garden Walk
3 Yotel hotel
Restaurants
Shops
The big Pokemon shop
The Apple store
More Information
It opened a week in advance for two-hour timed previews. You can read about it in Singapore's major newspaper, The Straits Times, and in Wikipedia.
Hotel
If you are on a stopover in Singapore you can stay in the complex at the Yotel. The hotel takes booking of a minimum of 4 hours and has family rooms. The hotel group has other branches in London, Paris, Amsterdam and Istanbul.
Restaurants
Many of the restaurants are open 24 hours. So whatever time your plane lands or leaves, you have something to eat and somewhere to meet. Several restaurants offer views of the waterfall.
Shops
I shall be showing more photos later in mid-April, taken by myself and photographer Trevor Sharot.

If you can'f find anywhere open, you'll find petrol and food on the motorway. Service stations by law are bound to stay open 24 hours, although it might be just one burger bar, and you might have to cross the overhead bridge to get there.

UK
Many petrol stations (Americans call them gas stations) have mini supermarkets. They might close their doors at 11 or midnight but the cashier speaking to you through a window can pass you a pint of milk or something you want.
