Evaluated as a park alone, Fort Canning definitely can't beat some of the other beautiful green spaces in Singapore like the Botanical Gardens. The true value of Fort Canning is its historical significance. To get the most out of your visit, I recommend taking one of the free tours on Saturday, and also visiting the Battle Box bunker.

I agree with a recent review that it will be extremely useful to take a Saturday guided tour to learn about the fauna (e.g. ginger plants, herbs, palms ...) or a historic tour provided free of charge by volunteers under a National Parks programme (check their web site for schedule).

There was a lot of potential there but I think either enthusiasm has waned or money is lacking. It is a pity because it is full of history and the grounds... More

I went with my partner to Fort Canning and attended a free heritage guided walk on a Saturday morning and found it a highly informative and enjoyable way to work up an appetite for brunch! There's actually many hidden treasures around Fort Canning including remnants of a cemetary, a archaelogical dig, a spice garden and a fort gate. I don't... More
