Title

Changi War Museum

Description

This museum is a hugely important and informative museum documenting the happenings of the second world war in Singapore. It is built on the site of a Japanese prison during the Japanese occupation of Singapore. The history the museum imparts is truly both heart-breaking and fascinating as Singapore’s involvement as a British colony in the war is rarely mentioned or taught in Europe. Many Europeans and Americans as well as Singaporeans have ancestors who were in Singapore at the time, and a museum of such quality and intensity should be visited by all.
