fort canning park



if you have not already explored this park, you should or you will be missing out a lot, especially on singapore's early history. fort canning is, in fact, the most historic part of singapore.

today, it is a popular venue for the arts including sculpture, plays and open air concerts and ballet.

most people are familiar with the better known landmarks like the keramat iskandar shah, the fort gate and the fort canning green. fort canning green used to be the old christian cemetery. people are also aware that there is a covered reservoir at the top of the hill and there is a spice garden near the foot of the hill. the additions are the battle box and the asean sculpture garden.

however, not many people are aware of the existence of the archaeological dig and exhibition. it showcases an actual archaelogical excavation site. it is very interesting and informative.
