Geocache Description:

Under the Banyan Tree is a programme of the National Museum Cinémathèque. This is one of the favorite things I like to do here in Singapore. During open-air screenings, we spread our picnic blanket and enjoy the movies.

Check the film schedule on the National Museum of Singapore website. If you're lucky, there might be a film screening on your visit. Bring your picnic basket and enjoy the open-air screening of the movies. Bring your own pen too when you sign the log sheet.

The location listed here is where Under the Banyan Tree is held, and NOT where the cache is hidden. The films are projected on a screen under the big old tree. You need to solve for the coordinates by answering the following clues.
