Trace the powerful legacy of the Singapore Chin Woo (Athletic) Association—rooted in the martial arts legend Huo Yuanjia and immortalised in Bruce Lee’s Fist of Fury.

This guided heritage walk, organised by Sport Singapore, begins at the former Yan Kit Swimming Pool, Singapore’s second public pool, and winds through Duxton Plain Park to the association’s historic Neil Road shophouse, its home since 1940.
