Hong Lim Park

A compact city park with Speakers' Corner, Hong Lim Park is most interesting as a site of Singapore's public and political life.

Hong Lim Park

Why go

Political speeches and election rallies took place here in the 1950s and 1960s, giving the green space a role beyond a simple rest stop. Seek out Speakers' Corner and consider how this small park sits amid the dense streets of the central city.

What to look for

  • Speakers' Corner is the park's defining feature.
  • The park sits within the built-up central city rather than a garden district.

Useful to know

  • Use it as a short pause while walking between Chinatown and the Singapore River area.
