Today was a terrible day for outing. My lesson on Heritage Trail could not be postpone. I have to walk in heavy showers with occasional thunder to various historic sites in Singapore.How many of you have been to Civil Defence Heritage Gallery?
This Gallery is located at Central Fire Station; just opposute Funan IT centre. It is one of the few places of attraction which has FREE admission. There are two storeys. On the ground or first floor, both adults and children would enjoy viewing the vintage items. On the second floor, there are some dos and don''ts during lightning, fire etc. In particular, there was a display on the urban search and rescue team which was involved in the collapse of Hotel New World many, many years ago. I was still quite young during that time. But till now, I can still remember this tragedy which shocked the whole island.
When time permits, do make a trip there to learn more about Singapore's Civil Defence before heading to Funan Centre for more computer gadgets.
