Round Island Tour with Lunch
(Tour Code: SFRI)
This award winning tour offers an interesting insight into
life outside city and starts with a visit to the Haw par Villa,
a theme park of Chinese mythology with exhibits of legendary
figures.
We will move on to Kranji Dam,
once a swampy area used as the first landing spot for Japanese
Advance Boats during World War II. From there, you can also
get a clear view of Johore Bahru. Next, we proceed to Kranji
War Memorial. Unveiled in the 1957, the memorial overlooking
the Straits of Johore, is the last resting-place for many
of the allied soldiers who lost their lives in World War II.
It commemorates by name over 20,000 men and women of the forces
who have no known graves. After lunch is a visit to
the Bright Hill Temple, a famous Chinese ancestral
worship place. The final loop of the tour will bring you to
Changi, passing the Johore Battery built by the British in
1939 to view a replica "Monster Gun", one of the
largest guns installed outside Great Britain during World
War II. The last stop is Changi Chapel and Museum,
where you will visit the museum and a replica of the chapel
used by POW during World War II. Drive through Changi Village
enroute back to the City.
