Fort Canning Park is a historic hilltop park located in the heart of Singapore, offering a peaceful green retreat surrounded by the city’s vibrant urban landscape. Once the site of a Malay royalty’s fortress and later the headquarters of the British colonial army, the park is rich in history and culture. Visitors can explore historical landmarks such as Fort Canning Green, Sultan Gate, and Battlebox, a former WWII British underground command center. The park is also home to lush gardens like the Renaissance Garden and the Spices Garden, which highlight Singapore’s colonial past and botanical diversity.
Fort Canning Park is a popular spot for both leisure and learning, hosting outdoor performances, concerts, and cultural events throughout the year. The park is easily accessible by Bus No. 75, 106, 167, and others, and is just a short walk from Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station (North-South, North-East, and Circle Lines).
