A very solemn place.
So many life’s cut short from so many countries, very sad.
We took the MTR to Kranji station then it’s a 15 walk.
This is a must see if you are an Australian.
Very well maintained.

While we didn't attend the Dawn Service here we had a mid morning walk. A very sad place but given the competition for space in Singapore it is testament to the esteem these men and women are held in that this place has been quarantined from development. Access is not easy but we parked across the road in the turf club car park. Its about a 10 min walk from there.

Brought a Malaysian Friend to this place and it wowed him. Solemn, quiet, and reflective. This is the resting place of many who sacrificed their lives during WWII. Not a big place but great if you take time to just sit and reflect. Probably about an hour or two will do to appreciate the place.

This memorial cemetery is beautifully kept and maintained and is cared for with respect by those who work there as are all Commonwealth War Cemeteries. There is a book containing names of those buried there in the niche at the entrance in alphabetical order.

Visited the cemetery due to relatives that served in Singapore during WW2. The cemetery is located north of the island. Can get there by the MRT from Singapore city. Use the Red Line MRT and get off at Kranji Station. The cemetery is only a 5 - 10 minute walk from train station. If you walk when you turn left out of the train station and you will walk to the first intersection, make sure you go straight across the intersection as the entrance is only about 200 metres on the left of Woodlands Drive. Certainly worth a visit. There are food stalls at Kranji station, plus you can stock up on bottled water as well. On our return we had the $2.50 Chicken Rice in the very small Food stall. recommended. Opposite are other food stalls.
