The horror of what happened & how Singapore evolved. Long way from the centre of the city to make travel arrangements
Changi Museum and Chapel is a very poignant and sobering tour. It brings home the Atrocities of those who survived their incarcerstion in Changi prison. A tour that truly gives an understanding of the resilence of mankind under the harshest of circumstances. Man's inhumanity to man!!! A tour not to be missed.
A good new museum well worth the journey.. it brings to life the reality of the Singapore experience of three and a half years. There is a restaurant next totals the mail building and is well presented.
Interesting stories and facts from a fantastically well informed tour guide. Well done 👍
Very interesting and full of information. Well worth a visit for adults not sure children would be interested. Our Dad was at Changi air base after the war and it ment a lot to us to visit the chapel which he spoke about many time.
There is a guided tour at 11am daily for $10 I had Andrea who was very informative & honouring of the POW’s but also made the tour interesting with personal stories mixed in with the facts so highly recommend. You can write a personal message to leave on the chapel wall & there is a cafe/toilet next door
Very informative exhibition. Relaxed and at own pace. Lots of interactive exhibits and historical items related to the armed forces stationed and held there. Good interactive search engine at the end where you can look up people and their records. Some records incomplete but still worth looking at.
I wasn't sure what to expect, but I loved the positive way they told the prisoners story. Very moving see the hand made crucifix, and other small possessions which survived. Very helpful friendly staff too.
