Jewel Changi Airport (also known as Jewel; Chinese: 星耀樟宜; pinyin: Xīng yào Zhāngyí; lit. 'Singapore Sparkle Changi', Malay: Jewel Lapangan Terbang Changi) is a nature-themed entertainment and retail complex surrounded by and linked to Terminals 1, 2, and 3 of Changi Airport in Singapore. Its centrepiece is the world's tallest indoor waterfall, the Rain Vortex, which is surrounded by a terraced forest setting. Jewel includes gardens, attractions, a hotel, about 300 retail and dining outlets, as well as early baggage check-in facilities. It covers a total floor area of 135,700 m2 (1,461,000 sq ft), spanning ten storeys—five above-ground and five basement levels.
Attractions include the Forest Valley, an indoor garden spanning five storeys; and the Canopy Park at the topmost level, featuring gardens and leisure facilities. Jewel receives about 300,000 visitors per day. In October 2019, six months after its soft opening, it welcomed 50 million visitors, exceeding its initial target for the whole year. In 2024, it achieved a record footfall of more than 80 million, the highest since its opening. The complex and airport are located in Changi, at the eastern end of Singapore, approximately 20 km (12 mi) northeast from Singapore's Downtown Core.
