Changi
Boardwalk 1.2km coastal boardwalk with views of the sea and Ubin, with heritage trees along the way. This boardwalk hugs the scenic Changi coastline from Changi Beach Club to Changi Sailing Club. On the way to the boardwalk, you will pass many of the area's heritage trees. The boardwalk is made up of four segments: Sunset Walk for a splendid view of the sunset over Changi Point, amid a backdrop of huge boulders. Kelong Walk: a stretch of the boardwalk with kelong stilts built over water, reminiscent of the 'good old kelong days'. Cliff Walk: located just below the hilltop chalets, allows a walk through lush greenery. Viewing decks along this stretch at vantage points provide panoramic views. Sailing Point Walk: near the Changi Sailing Club provides open views of the sea. Download the Changi Point Walking map (PDF) with maps and stories about heritage trees, heritage buildings and other facets of Changi. From the URA website (Oct 06). The habitatnews blog has more about Changi and its special wildlife. Guided walks are held on an adhoc basis by the Green Volunteers Network and Nature Society (Singapore). Other attractions at Changi Pulau Ubin is just a 15-minute bumboat ride away from Changi. This last unspoilt island of Singapore is amazing to explore! The Changi Museum was relocated in Feb 01 replacing the Old Changi Prison Chapel and Museum. The Museum is dedicated to all those who lived and died in Singapore, in particular the Changi area, during World War II. It documents significant events of the Japanese Occupation. Facilities include an archive of books about Singapore during World War II, a gift shop and a nice cafe. Group tours are provided for groups, pre-booking and advance notice is required.
