Fort Canning Hills

Just looking out Fort Canning is like a big boost after a long stroll across the busy Clarke Quay area. So green, serene and lush. Many Kapok trees above 40 metres high!



The signposts are clearly marked the areas. Well, the park or (fort) is bigger than i originally thought every time I pass by the park. And it has caves!


The old historic walls seem to show respect for all they saw. As you climb up the steps you move away from the city sounds and absorb the feeling of what this area once stood for.



Fort Canning Park is a historic place not to be missed and it showed stories from the 14th Century right up to the independence of Singapore in the 60's. From the Cannons to the Fort Wall to the Quartermaster's Rest area and not to mention Battle Box, this place will bring you through what Singapore has gone through for the last 600 years. Do not miss out on the Fort Canning Lighthouse as well.
