As parents, we would like to expose our children to learn about different countries and their culture to broaden their horizons.
However, we don’t always have the opportunity to travel around the world. Travelling as a family can be expensive and entails a lot of preparation and planning.
Well, here’s some exciting news! “The Great Adventure” at Changi Airport Terminal 3, lets us experience amazing and fun adventures with the family, without the hassle of flying anywhere!
Introducing Changi Airport’s The Great Adventure!
The Great Adventure is an experiential exhibition that will take you and your family on an exhilarating journey around the world to 4 amazing countries. These countries will offer your family a treasure trove of cultural and environmental riches!
Adventure #1: Destination Brazil!
Known as the ‘lungs’ of our planet and home to an incredible array of rare fauna and flora, the Amazon Rainforest of Brazil is one of the amazing destinations you’ll get to ‘experience’ at Changi Airport.
Here’s a fun fact for the kids (and you!): Did you know that the forest floor of the Amazon Rainforest is typically dark? Very little sunlight makes it through the thick tree canopy above!
Adventure #2: Destination China!
At this next Great Adventure location, your kids will get to learn about the famous ancient Terracotta Army of China.
Talking about these amazing life-like warriors, did you know that they are part of one of the world’s largest and oldest imperial tomb complexes? While about 1,800 statues have been uncovered, most of the complex is yet to be excavated!
Adventure #3: Destination Sri Lanka!
This teardrop-shaped island, also known as “The Pearl of the Indian Ocean” is tiny but mighty in culture and environmental diversity… and you get to experience a taste of this country’s rich wildlife at Changi Airport!
Before you “take a trip” there, here’s something to tell your kids about this little island:
Did you know Sri Lanka has the world’s largest concentration of Asian elephants which are the world’s largest terrestrial mammals!
Adventure #4: Destination Mauritius!
Parents, this one will probably be your favorite among the Great Adventure destinations! You’ll get to experience what it will be like to escape to your very own private beach getaway in beautiful Mauritius!
Here are some fun facts about this lovely island, especially for the kids:
- With a wide variety of sea sports and beach activities, kids can go parasailing, kite flying and even dolphin-watching!
- The coral reef barriers along its beaches stretch for approximately 300km long!
