What is Fort Canning Park, and what are some of its main attractions?
Fort Canning Park is a historic park located in the heart of Singapore (just behind Orchard Road!) and is known for its rich history and lovely green spaces. It's a lot quieter compared to more well-known parks like Botanic Gardens, and to us just as beautiful with its towering giant trees.
Some of the park's main attractions include the Fort Canning Centre, which houses a range of exhibitions and events related to Singapore's history, and the Battlebox, an underground bunker that played a critical role in the defense of Singapore during World War II. The park is also home to several walking trails, historic sites, and outdoor performance spaces. In summer, Shakespeare in the Park is frequently performed here!
