Time Capsule

The Time Capsule in the city of Singapore is one of the major tourist attractions in the city. The Time Capsule in Singapore was sealed off on the eve of the silver jubilee of Singapore's independence on 31st December, 1999 by the Minister for Communications and Information Technology. Singapore has genuinely covered a long way ever since she gained independence, and struggled to establish herself as a booming commercial and industrial center and a vibrant city.

The Time Capsule is a depositary of items or information hived away in a secret place, but with much publicity. This is supposed to act as a structure of communication with the future generation. In around 1937 the phrase "time capsule" came in rage, but actually the idea of time capsule is pretty old and dates back to the olden civilization in Mesopotamia.

The Singapore Time Capsule is kept within a structure that nearly resembles a pyramid by the side of the Singapore River. Considering the architecture of the buildings that surround the place and the staid looking structures which reminds one of the colonial days, the Time Capsule is quite a deviation. The Time Capsule in Singapore is a collection of some significant items that trace back to the years of Singapore's sovereignty. The Time Capsule in Singapore is scheduled to be exposed in the year 2050. The Time Capsule is recognition of the accomplishments of human venture, an improved commitment and a hope for the future.
