Holiday’s are about visiting new and exciting places, some local to us, others far away. If you are like me, then visiting faraway places intrigues me because of their culture, belief’s and customs as well as their History.
“ Being English comes with its own set of challenges when visiting other countries, whether it is the recent history of our place in the region or from a long time ago, we have certainly left our mark on the landscape virtually everywhere.”
For S$15 about £8.50 you can lose yourself for a couple of hours (yes really almost 2 hours) by visiting the history of SG. From its origins of a colony of the East India Shipping Company to present day, it charts to progress Singapore has made, the people that made it what it is today and how they all came to be integrated into a part of the world that at first seemed so far removed from their homelands.
Learn about the trials and tribulations of many types of resident that came to settle in SG and how they lived, worked and prospered. How they overcame many barriers and found themselves in a new world, where dreaming of returning home rich and prosperous quickly turned to despair for many. Yet they survived and helped build the foundations of what we see in Singapore today.
