Missing the rich culture and iconic temples in Bali? Then, Fort Canning Park is a place that should not be missed. The park features nine historical gardens and one important park is the Sang Nila Utama Garden. With its beautiful antique statues and Javanese-inspired architecture, many have said that it feels just like Bali. The sunset hues at dusk are magical and a great time to take Insta-worthy pictures too.

Did you know? The decision to surrender Singapore to the Japanese in 1942 was taken on this very iconic hilltop. According to National Parks, many of Singapore�??s historical milestones were at Fort Canning Park.
