based on Take a Singapore round-island day tour to Haw Par Villa, Singapore’s Chinese mythology theme park crammed with statues of legendary figures. The full-day trip also retraces Singapore’s World War II history, with visits to Kranji Dam, Kranji War Memorial, Bright Hill Temple and Changi.
Haw Par Villa’s colorful statues and landscaped grounds are a Singapore highlight, and were formerly known as the Tiger Balm Gardens. The gardens provide a relaxing sojourn before the sobering reminders of Singapore’s experience in World War II. Kranji Dam, in Singapore’s north-west, was the first landing spot for Japanese advance boats. You’ll have clear views across the Straits of Johor to Malaysia and visit the Kranji War Memorial, the last resting place for allied soldiers who lost their lives in World War II. The memorial commemorates by name over 20,000 men and women of the forces who have no known grave.
After lunch on your round-island tour you’ll visit Singapore’s Bright Hill Temple, famous for its Chinese crematorium and well-stocked turtle pond. The final loop of your Singapore day trip brings you to Changi Chapel and Museum, with its memories of the Changi prisoner-of-war camp. You’ll pass the Johor Battery built by the British in 1939 and see a replica “Monster Gun”, one of the largest guns installed outside Great Britain during World War II. Your Singapore day tour returns to Singapore via a drive through Changi Village.
