★★★★★5 months agoFort Siloso, Singapore's only remaining coastal fort, is located on Sentosa Island and is a fascinating piece of Singaporean history. Built in the 19th century, it played a key role during the Battle of Singapore during World War II. It serves as a free museum with some fascinating exhibits, and is well worth a visit.

★★★★★a month agoWe recently brought our students to Fort Siloso for an educational outing, and it was a wonderful experience. The students had a great time exploring the historical site, especially the tunnels, which they found exciting and engaging. It was both fun and educational, allowing them to learn more about Singapore's history in an interactive way. The facilities were well maintained, and the overall experience was enjoyable for both the students and teachers. Highly recommended for school excursions!
