National Museum of Singapore

This is a truly excellent history museum--so much so that I actually got kicked out at the end of the day when they were trying to close but I wasn't done yet! The moral of the story is to go early :)

Great place to learn about Singapore's history, especially the guided tour by an passionate volunteer guide. A lot of coverage on life during and post WW2. Food here is limited & overpriced though.

Looking for a Great Singapore Souvenir (GSS) to take home with you, check out the Museum Label kiosk w fab, funky & fun gifts !

If you're in Singapore, make time to see this museum . They have some outstanding galleries with art from all over Southeast Asia . If you want a good dose of Singapore / Asian history, start here!

Very well laid out and interesting museum . Lots of information to read and modern layout that keeps you engaged. Housed in an old beautiful building.

Free admission for Singapore citizens & PR all year round fr 18 May 2013. 7 other museums too! Singapore History & Singapore Living Galleries , Goh Seng Choo Gallery & Stamford Gallery .

FREE entrance to some of the exhibits for Singapore Citizen / Permanent Resident (required to show NRIC at ticketing counter).

Singapore's main museum which showcases the country 's history. Check their special exhibits .

Space for rent. The museum has 12 rooms available for an event or workshop. For >200 guests, consider the Gallery Theatre , Foyer, or Glass Atrium – depending on your activity

If u prefer a quiet viewing of the art , avoid the guided tour at 11 am given in loud Singlish. Beware of school excursions / tours too. Probably safer to visit in afternoon.

A must see if you are here in Singapore. However do check online if there are any special events going on as sometimes the museum might close some of the exhibitions .

Surprised that kiddos whom are at curious stage of "What is this? How to use? What is it for?" are fascinated of olden days items with aid of sound / video clips in comparison to modern items.

You can spend the entire afternoon in the Singapore History Gallery with tons of various artifacts from different eras.

Take the time, even if not your thing to do. Wonderful, informative,peaceful , amazing... okay enough you read to go see it on your own..after all you're not paying me for full details.
