This is a place you simply cannot miss if you're into culture. Even if you're not, you should put this museum on your list of things to see.

This museum is huge and has a great collection of artifacts from various regions in South Asia. The way the exhibits have been laid out is excellent - the lighting, the information panels, the tours... This place deserves at least 3 hours of your time. :)

The staff has friendly service and there was free guided tour to know more about this place. The design of the exhibits was also very nice and the layout of the galleries was clear and well guided, visitors do not have to worry about getting lost in there.

We only had a couple hours to see the exhibits, and that's not really doing it justice. There is lots to see, with informative notices throughout. The staff very helpful. I would say you need a good half day or day to really appreciate the museum.

The building itself is very beautiful, inside the rooms are set out into Various rooms depicting different cultural groups, it is informative,very well set out and information in English. Restaurant on verandah is fantastic.

Don't go there at the end of the day or you'll be disappointed if they announce closing time and you've not seen it all. Give yourself plenty of time to enjoy this place. Singaporeans are... More

From the earliest days, the museum shows the background to the modern city of Singapore, worthwhile seeing
