Date: 8th January 2023
Time: 6:45pm – 9:15pm
Venue: City Hall
The primary goal of this night trail was to raise awareness of the historical and cultural landmarks located in Singapore’s downtown and to help people rediscover City Hall and the Singapore River as well as to pay tribute to the heritage of Singapore.
The event was held physically in City Hall and participants were split into small groups of 5 with 2 tour guides leading the trail. A digital handbook containing information on the heritage sites, indemnity clauses for the trail, and the Registration and Indemnity Form were sent to the participants prior to the event.
At 5:30pm, groups met at designated locations on the NTU campus and were then led by guides to City Hall via public transportation. Once they arrived, the guides provided a brief introduction to the trail before leading the groups to various heritage sites, where they provided detailed explanations about the historical significance of each location. The event was conducted according to a schedule and included time for participants to take photos and hydrate themselves.
Overall, the feedbacks were positive where all responders had indicated that they enjoyed the event, while most of them agreed that the information provided were appropriate and instructive that they had gained better understanding on the objectives of the night trail.
