Esplanade Park, Heritage park in Downtown Core, Singapore
Green space of 2.4 hectares along Connaught Drive features historical landmarks, memorials, and centuries-old Angsana trees near the Singapore CBD.
Established in 1943, the park contains the Cenotaph war memorial from 1922 and monuments dedicated to Singapore's resistance during World War II.
Three national monuments within the park boundaries showcase Singapore's military history and contributions of prominent local figures through architectural elements.
Located near City Hall and Esplanade MRT stations, this public park remains accessible throughout the day and requires no entrance fee.
Five notable Angsana trees in the park became a popular meeting location for couples during the 1960s, earning a special name in Hokkien.
