Fort Canning Park
July 1, 2022 10:23 am Leave your thoughtsFort Canning Park is a hill in the heart of the city. It’s a strategic early British settlement with direct view of the port and a preserved Raffles House (named after the founder of OG Singapore). Today the park is a great green getaway with beautiful colonial buildings, a wedding centre and – surprise – a multitude of gardens.
