Civil Defence Heritage Gallery
Civil Defence Heritage Gallery in Hill Street
For sure - if you’ve been roaming around the central area of Singapore, you often see this colonial-inspired, red-striped building, just near an Armenian Apostolic Church. It looks closed and cautious from the outside, but it actually is open. Red dot’s oldest fire station is opening its doors to the rest of the world thru the Civil Defense Heritage Gallery.
The best way to reach this is by foot so as to see the rest of the landmarks that are just a few steps away from this place. From here – it can be a city tour on foot. The nearest MRT to bring you here is at the City Hall or even Clarke Quay MRT – from here it takes less than fifteen minutes’ walk and you’re all set for some health and safety education. Best thing about it – it’s absolutely free of charge. Free fire station experience, yes thank you, Singapore.
Here you’ll find out how fire stations in Singapore have progressed over the years, showing some real-life shards and engines. Not to forget to mention, here you can find one of the most interactive displays of firefighting action at the customized interactive stations. You get to experience how to fight fire and how to see thru a firefighter’s viewing platform.
This is an excellent place for some kid and family bonding because there are so many things to learn and understand about health and safety. It also is a good place for bonding with friends and an interesting stop for tourists and travelers. The gallery not only showcases pictures, videos, audio guides, and stories about how the country shaped its history and vision thru this attribute; it also shows how much Singapore is dedicated to making this small dot the safest haven to have.
