Singapore's Hidden Underground World

There are large underground military facilities: For example, under Orchard Road, there is an abandoned MRT station called "Dover Station", originally planned as a Cold War bomb shelter.
A secret underground storage facility exists: The Jurong Rock Caverns, located on Jurong Island, is Southeast Asia’s only underground petroleum storage facility, reaching depths of 100 meters.
Underground MRT Station at Orchard Road: The alleged abandoned "Dover Station" under Orchard Road is not widely discussed, but Singapore does have a deep underground MRT system, such as the Dhoby Ghaut MRT station, which has three underground levels, making it one of the deepest in Singapore. Additionally, the Woodlands North MRT station is planned to be the deepest station (28m below ground) to connect to the future Johor Bahru-Singapore RTS Link.
Jurong Rock Caverns (JRC): Officially opened in 2014, these caverns store 1.47 million cubic meters of liquid hydrocarbons and are located 130 meters beneath Banyan Basin on Jurong Island. This frees up valuable land space for industrial and commercial use.
Underground Ammunition Facility (UAF): Singapore also has the world’s first underground ammunition storage facility at Mandai, built to save land while ensuring national security.
