This morning I went back up to Fort Canning Park to see the
Battle Box Museum (Kate wasn't too interested in going on Sunday). This is an underground bunker that was built by the British in 1936 in anticipation of the war coming to Asia Pacific. It served as the headquarters for the British Army until their surrender to the invading Japanese Forces in 1943.
The museum was pretty well done, there was a tour guide as well as wireless headphones that gave narrations in each room. The rest of the morning was spent just exploring the neighborhoods between Fort Canning Park and the CBD. Oh yeah, a tasty lunch of roast duck, rice and cabbage!
