My Trip to Fort Siloso, Sentosa
This place has its own history, its a well preserved fort, museum and also a poignant reminder of the nation's wartime history, particularly World War II.
How to get to Fort Siloso?
Easiest way by public transport is to get to Habourfront MRT station, and take the Sentosa Express Monorail, alight at beach station.
then take a beach shuttle from there to reach fort siloso.
Exploring Fort Siloso
First stop will be the sky walk!
Take the elevator up the 11 storey high sky walk with a nice view

After the sky walk, we reached the entrance of the fort siloso.
There are a few attractions or stops, you can see the Tunnel, Fort siloso square etc.
This fort was built in the late 19th century to protect Singapore from sea invasion.
But during world war II, when the Japanese troop invaded Singapore, the British troop used this fort to support and defend Singapore..
It is a nice place to explore especially if you want to get to know more about the fort and singapore's history.
the admission is Free to Fort Siloso Skywalk and to Fort Siloso and the area.
