Explore Singapore’s 74th National Monument
Fort Siloso and 11 of the fort’s individual structures have been gazetted as a National Monument. Personally, we think it it is one of the best places for a mix of adventure and history. Plus, admission is free too. Find out what to expect at Fort Siloso.
While at Fort Siloso, you can also take a walk along the Sentosa Coastal Trail.
