Did you know that there was once a zoo in Punggol? Also, do you know which hotel in Singapore was once a court venue for war crimes trials in the post-World War II period?
 
Hop on board a train and embark on a learning journey to uncover the lesser-known facts surrounding Singapore’s travel and tourism, and natural heritage such as the Goodwood Park and Singapore Zoo through Singapore HeritageFest (SHF) 2022's Ride & Discover programme – a content series which reimagines MRT stations as exhibition spaces. Come and relive the stories that connect us at these stations: Somerset, Bayfront, Kent Ridge and Clementi MRT Stations.

Singapore HeritageFest

The Singapore HeritageFest (SHF) is the National Heritage Board’s signature annual outreach event that celebrates the many facets of Singapore’s diverse heritage and culture. SHF works with individuals, groups and communities to co-create programmes and offerings. This allows the festival to uncover lesser-known stories and narratives, engender a greater sense of ownership, and empower Singaporeans to safeguard and promote our shared heritage. The inaugural edition of SHF was staged in 2004, and since then, the festival has continued to provide on-site and online experiences with yearly themes that focus on different aspects of Singapore’s heritage.
