Don't Miss the Guided Tour

With a history dating back to its inception in 1887, the National Museum of Singapore is the nation's oldest museum with a progressive mind. Its galleries adopt cutting-edge and multi-perspective ways of presenting history and culture to redefine conventional museum experience. A cultural and architectural landmark in Singapore, the Museum hosts innovative festivals and events all year round-the dynamic Night Festival, visually arresting art installations, as well as amazing performances and film screenings-in addition to presenting thought-provoking exhibitions involving critically important collections of artefacts. The programming is supported by a wide range of facilities and services including F&B, retail and a Resource Centre. The National Museum of Singapore re-opened in December 2006 after a three-year redevelopment, and celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2012. The Museum refreshed its permanent galleries and re-opened them on 19 September 2015 for Singapore's Golden Jubilee.

Great way to understand the history of Singapore
A well managed museum that tells the story of Singapore, with well organised exhibits and explanations. The building is beautifully restored with a modern extension hidden at the rear. After spending a shor period looking around, we joined an English languaage tour led by Sylvia, a volunteer. Sylvia did a great job telling us the story of Singapore and answering questions from the tour participants. We enjoyed a drink at the Food for Thought cafe, which had some of the best coffee we found in Singapore.

very good
Hard to describe here everything, but basically its the history of Singapore^^. WW2 and the seperation of Malaysia play the main role mostly. I recommend it, BUT 18 singapore dollar and for the other thing 15 dollar or something, so total ~34 Singapore dollar is too expensive for a national museum, while meanwhile residents get entry for free. -1 star for that
