As a garden designer and plant collector, I could not help but rave about how gorgeous this airport in Singapore is. I would just let the photos speak of the beauty of the place which is a tribute to the green-sensitivity of the people behind it.

| Blooming orchids occupy small spaces all over the airport |
 |
| A lot of people doing garden maintenance are from other Southeast Asian countries, the Philippines included. It is not surprising to see this typical "bahay kubo" or nipa hut inspired display. The designer must have been filipino. |
The Main Lounge which featured some very nice Duty Free shops also featured some landscaped areas that one would normally expect to see in garden shows or botanical garden displays.

The designers of the airport must have really intended to package this airport as a greenhouse especially with the high glass roofs that allow maximum space and light penetration. The amount of space devoted to plants is admirable considering how premium space is in a place like Singapore.
Palms are growing so well in this area with its almost greenhouse conditions. Live specimens grow luxuriantly, in contrast to most indoorscapes of this scale where artificial palms (and trees) would have been used instead.
Plants have been wisely selected for their adaptability to the special growing conditions that the area offered. Shade loving palms were used for most areas while aglaonemas, marantas, diffenbachias, all known for their low light tolerance and hardiness were planted in beautiful masses under the very tall palms.
Truly, Changi deserves all the accolades it has been receiving as one of the best airports in the world.
Hi! I really enjoy your blog! I hope when they re-do NAIA 1 they willl incorporate indoor gardens and allocate more space for it than just lame plant boxes on the side of a hallway. Seeing greens inside would do wonders to help make airports less stressful and hectic!

I saw comments from people who already got their loan from Liberty private funding and then I decided to apply under their recommendations and just few hours ago I confirmed in my own personal bank account a total amount of $90,000 which I requested for.

I am happy now that i have gotten the loan I have requested.
