The Battle Box
was the underground bomb-proof bunker of Britain's HQ
Malaya Command during World War Two. Situated nine metres
beneath Fort Canning Hill, it was also the site where
General Percival reached the fateful decision to surrender
Singapore to the invading Japanese forces on 15 Feb 1942.
There are
altogether 26 rooms in The Battle Box. The museum is
enhanced with specially crafted wax figures, some of which
can move and talk using animatronics. It is currently
managed by The Legends Fort Canning.
Mystery of the Battle Box
Jing Yang, his classmate Angelina and his cousin Tim team
up to solve a mystery about hidden treasure in an underground
bunker which was built during World War Two.
A history dropout from a local university has been searching
for the treasure for many years. The teenagers must find the
treasure first – before he does. They stumble into a secret
tunnel beneath the bunker with help from two spirits --
British and Australian soldiers -- haunting
the bunker since World War Two.
Just when they lay eyes on the gold bars hidden in the secret
tunnel, who else but the history dropout should turn up behind
them, startling them...
