“Anniversary of The Fall of Singapore”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 February 2012

I walked to the Cenotaph the day after the 70th Anniversary of The Fall of Singapore. Lots of floral wreaths still on display. It was very moving to read the cards and tributes. In the hustle and bustle of Singapore this is a place for quiet reflection on the past.

“Nothing much to see but four large pillars pointing into the air”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 December 2011

Nice monument to the war dead but easily missed now that the surronding ares is all connected via underground / airconditioned malls. Look for it if it is your thing, but otherwise can be missed.
