Do you know Singapore's first technical and special needs' school are located in Queenstown? Do you know the foundation talks of the formation of ASEAN took place at the backyard of Queenstown?
My Dawson heritage tour recounts the history of Singapore’s first satellite town, Queenstown, from a modern residential town in 1959 to the founding of the port city in 1819. The guided tour weaves in interesting stories from the nutmegs and rubber plantations, to botanic garden and military encampments.
In this exclusive bicentennial tour, participants will explore the history of Queenstown through an assortment of iconic buildings including Phoenix Park, Former Tanglin Barracks, and the St George's Church. Participants will also hear a tapestry of colourful stories from long time residents which makes Queenstown the most endearing home of all.
