Fort Canning Light

There is a lighthouse right at the downtown core at Fort Canning Hill.

Most of the lighthouses in Singapore are out of bound to the public. The Fort Canning Lighthouse, however, is accessible. It is situated at the top of Fort Canning Hill. In the early days, the Fort Canning Light is one of the most important lighthouses in the Straits of Malacca. Though modern technology has made this lighthouse obsoleted functionally, its glorious past is not forgotten. Every lighthouse has a story to tell. Don't miss this one. Go and take a stroll at the park with your family.
