Built in the late 19th century, Singapore was an important trading port under the British colony, so the fort was set up as protection in case a sea invasion occured. (Spoiler alert: it didn\u2019t happen \u2013 the Japanese invaded by land.)<\/p>\n<p>This may be a military museum, but you won\u2019t be going through a yawn-inducing tour.
