Whilst not top quality, this exhibition gives you the feel of old Singapore. No rush to get round, as you trvel at your own pace. Very peaceful..a change from the hectic & lively City. The dioramas are well done, & conveys the atmosphere of past times. However the final room ,of modern times is very poorly done, I feel. A... More

This is a brillient exhibition charting the history of Singapore through the ages with montages setting the mood of the period. It was far more extensive than we had expected and excellent value for money

Don't waste your time here. Nothing interesting to see. Waste of money waste of time. And the souvenir shop at the end of the tour is so over priced! Keychains are being sold at S$4.90 when you can buy them for S$2 in Chinatown

It was like more than half an hour walk to find an end to the tunnel of boredom. You'll find a lot of dioramas inside and only the beginning of it (short historical film) was worth the time. And to think we had to pay for it just to get in. But if you're into dioramas, go for it. I'd... More

Maybe it's boring for the citizens of singapore, but we, as tourists (visiting Singapore many times) this kind of museum is worth a try. It contains a variety of topics dioramas and historical collections relating to diverse cultures in Singapore. If you take the price of the ticket package Sentosa, it is very good to take this decent place in... More
