Need a place to ‘park’ yourself and just search for inner peace? It may not be easy to find a place of peace in a bustling city like Singapore, but such a place does exist. Labrador Park is an oasis of tranquillity and natural wonder!
A Rich History and Breathtaking Views
In 1843, the Labrador Nature Reserve was identified by the British as a strategic defence site to protect the entrance to the harbors of Singapore. Today, the park offers a picturesque view of the sea and serves as a glimpse into the past with its underground complexes used during WWII for the storage of ammunition and supplies.
