This museum is a great place. I encountered the officiousness that seems too persavive amonst the new immigrants to Singapore. I wasn't allowed to move through until the lady handing out the interactive handsets had finished with her group. The guy just monstered over me as iff I was going to walk through anyway, probably because others have because of... More

I really liked the way early to enter the museum, a large oval room and full screen, which displays a video of the daily local community, with good background music. They want to make all our senses also feel the history that has occurred. All prologue, dialogue, video, background music, the lighting is very well organized and synchronized.

Very average museum and very few things to see and only good thing is that its very near to MRT. There is not much to see BELOW AVERAGE.

There was nothing to see except some arts, waste of time and money. Doesn't worth 10$ . A dark room and some spot of light really couldn't understand what that was.. also i asked the volunteer there and they don't know why it was like that too.

Fantastic museum. Get the audio tour - fantastic oral history of Singapore. The building architecture with fusion of old colonial style building at the front and modern building behind

Some excellent exhibits as well as an interactive history of Singapore the museum is well laid out and one can easily spend a couple of hours here learning about Singapore and its people. At S$11 a ticket certainly this is a worthwhile... More

While this isn't a huge museum it is very nicely presented with lots of great information about the formation of Singapore and how it has progressed since then. We found the whole things really interesting and took our time to walk around the whole thing. If you are really interested in the exhibits it will take you a couple of... More
