I went to this thinking that I would be looking at old photos of Singapore, instead it is much more, life size figures with narration on the settling of Singapore, the war and celebrations within the different cultures that live within Singapore.

We took a 6D/5N tour of Singapore and Malaysia with a group of 32 peoples. Our tour guide explained about the symbol of the statues of lions (father lion, mother lion, son lion ...) that we saw a lot around Singapore. While in Sentosa Island, we rode the escalators, elevators, and walked all the way up to the highest statue... More

Went here in 80's, 90's, and yup still stay strong in 2013 :). Useful place to know about Singapore. To dig more about Singapore, I think better to continue your journey to other Singapore's Museums.

One of the highlights of Sentosa. Shows the history of Singapore and how it has become the city it is today. Loved it!

Like the idea of the museum. You get to know lots of stuff about Singapore, in a fun way. Though we spent some 2 hours there, my daughter did not get bore with the stuff.

Starts with a 5min show which was pretty entertaining. I spent around 2 hrs for the whole thing. Most of the exhibits are in dim lighting so taking pictures are not so easy. Basically tell the story of Singapore. Walk through Singapore from when it was a Jungle to the city it is today. I think it is well worth... More

This is an essential trip to discover a potted history of Singapore while having a very pleasant nature walk, if you don't know anything about Singapore, this will enlighten you. It is central to other attractions as well.

Date of Visit: 8th Apr 2013 Fees: $10 for adults, $7 for children Experience: Pretty decent! I haven't been to a museum in Singapore for a very long time so I gave it a shot (it was also starting to rain so a perfect time to hide indoors). Queue was quite short at about 4pm and the tour kicked off... More

Some parts of this exhibit feel amateurish while other parts are very professional but if you are interested in Singapore's history you will overlook the weaker presentations. The exhibit was not busy which was a pleasant reprive from the bustling marine life park. Really enjoyed learning the history and feeling immersed in it. Very impressed how Singapore has maintained its... More
