Beautiful museum, with artifacts representing most Asian cultures. There are free museum tours, and even the guides who were there just practising their monologues were happy to share their knowledge with me.

This is an interesting museum as they bring in exhibits of interesting theme. However, it is very niche eg Egyptian artifacts. If you are not into the particular theme at that moment, there is no other reasons to visit.

Detailed and structured history of the Malay peninsula and the formation of Singapore.

Great old building close to other must visit places. Has a nice restaurant attached.

The museum is in a colonial building in an historical part of Singapore. The Southeast Asia gallery has a good collection of artefacts from all over the region. There are free guided tours (11 am and 2.00pm) but I preferred just to wander around by myself; as the museum is small this is easy to do.

Very good and well laid out Museum, had a free tour included on the day we visited, started at 10.00, Finished with tea overlooking the Singapore River, good way to while the morning whilst awaiting plane departure
