Fort Siloso

Very well thought out free attraction. I haven't been here since I was a kid decades ago, so I didn't remember anything, but as an adult with kids myself, I found it very educational and impressive. The linkage to the Skywalk was very well thought of, the exhibits are lifelike, with awesome descriptions and storytelling of the history of Fort Siloso from before World War 2, to present day.

Well done Singapore, I really enjoyed the walk around, through the tunnels, listening to the recordings and seeing the diorama and mock up of soldiers and the numerous guns and canons. It is a pity that Australia and New Zealand don't follow your lead in restoration of these historic sites. Was the highlight of my trip to Sentosa and best of all it was free!

If you enjoy both history and physical activity, this place will suit you perfectly. This place provides a lot of information and interesting facts about the second world war particularly in Asia-Pacific theatre. Do not forget to bring drinking water because the trail is long enough and can be exhausting. Public facilities such as toilets and benches are available. There is no entrance fee but I think it is not so children- and senior-friendly. Overall, this fort is very recommended to visit while you are in Sentosa.

All you need to know 🌴⚔️🎺 Entrance - The entrance is free of charge Opening Hours - 9am to 6pm (last entry 5:30pm) Time for discovery - Around ~2 hours Fort Siloso - Very well explained with many stops, interactive displays and videos. There are also maps in case you feel lost and staff members you can ask. It is a big area and it happens that you don’t meet other people while discovering this Fort. Facilities - Plenty of free water dispensers and toilets Enjoy ;)

There's a lot of signage and maps guiding the visit but the order you wanna visit each underground sites and the fort is up to you. It's so cool that such an incredible trove of history is free and you get to experience the sombre atmosphere of world war 2 and post war negotiations that this historic place witnessed. If you're a history-curious person, this immersive place is for you. Be warned that it's a workout as there's a bit to walk and it's quite hilly. You will however be compensated by the historical tidbits of the place and fully appreciate the significance of this place. The location has drinking stations, toilets, vending machines and even some rooms available for a quick rest and to hydrate yourself, hence facilitating your visit. The free buses and beach shuttle drops you off at Siloso Beach and it's a 5 min walk from there, so it's quite easy to come and leave the place. For the more adventurous ones, the return path includes a nature trail as well!

Pros: it’s free, I like military history, I’m glad they preserved this. The Skywalk offers great reviews. Cons: it’s probably not a fun place to take kids or most people :) displays aren’t very interesting. A lot of material written is repeated. Seems a very set it, and forget it museum.

I loved this place. Whilst crowds of people head for the "modern entertainment" attractions like the luge runs, theme park, aquarium, etc, this place is not only quiet and peaceful, but full of historic interest. Just follow the heritage trail, which will take you around the area, visiting gun batteries, old fort buildings, and museums. You can get here by just taking the Cablecar for some great views. Then, just take the lift up to the Skywalk, which brings you to the fort and heritage trail.

Very interesting place to learn about the history of Singapore during the Japanese Occupation. The bunkers and tunnels are still well kept and intact. Although can be creepy along some tunnels accompanied by wax figurines, the entire experience is fruitful and educational. Not wheelchair friendly though. But for people whom are interested in history and war, can always visit and take a hike.
