- Safari150111502061 contributionYana was patient and knowledgeable, didnt even need to look at the board to know what she talking about.

- M DBengaluru, India1,843 contributionsLocated in Chinatown, Singapore. Free access to public to view it. Has a dress code and no exposing shoulders and wearing clothes below knee length just like most other religious places.Written 21 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LelezaSao paulo63 contributionsIt’s a very interesting museum.
We had a guide tour and our guide was excellent. She explained the most important parts of the history.
We could understand very well the entire history of Singapore.
I truly recommend this visit.Written 25 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Great to find out that Haw and Par are the originator of Tiger Balms.Written 5 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lenny HAuckland, New Zealand920 contributionsThe best part was the virtual experience. The future show was good, too, although quite pricey. The rest of the museum, however, was not open the Saturday we went - no other exhibitions.Written 12 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mildred2011London, UK205 contributionsAn unexpected but essential start to any few days in Singapore
It is extremely impressive to see how long term planning and efficient use of the very limited land that the country has is organised
The UK could learn a lot from how Singapore operatesWritten 27 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Alvin was very knowledgeable and passionate about his paranekan heritage. He was happy and enthusiastic when answering questions and you could really see his love and passion for his collection of all things paranekan. I would definitely recommend a visit. One of the most personal and informative things to do in Singapore. Loved it.Written 27 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JavaMama58Denmark2,414 contributionsQuite an interesting modern presentation on the Peranakan culture. We did our own walk thru. It was manageable in size and depth of information. Didn’t feel overwhelmed.Written 9 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- moreholidaysplease87Lincolnshire, UK339 contributionsReally interesting heritage museum. Very small, quick and easy to get around but worth it to understand the heritage of Singapore.Written 26 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Fenris p22 contributionsI've always made a point to drop by when in town. Like to buy the stamps and view the exhibits-- cant believe it opened in 95! Will definitely go down soon before 18 march, it will close for revamp until 2020 awwWritten 22 February 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- GinnyleeinwonderlandHai Phong, Vietnam356 contributionsIt was a very creative museum. The location was very nice with the view straight to the bay. Inside, it was small museum showing new technology of the world, new creations of the world such as the sport suits, phones, smart stuff for the house, headphones, etc... It was very nice to walk around and to be able to touch things in the museumWritten 20 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mrs WMelbourne, Australia215 contributionsAlthough one floor is closed for a new display I still found this a worthwhile stop. To see so many toys in one place is just amazing.
A bar on the top floor is great for a cold drink.Written 25 November 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Even for a local like myself, the exhibitions on the 3rd and 4th levels of the building about the Indian community in Singapore both past and present are refreshing as they relate the contributions made by this minority community as well as the rich experiences they came with when many of these ones migrated over to Singapore in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Highly recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy a slow and relaxed way of learning more about the Indian diaspora in this part of the world.Written 17 November 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Staff is super knowledgeable and friendly, and you learn a ton about rocks, gems, and geology. You can buy some items if you want but the guided tour is free of charge. It’s easy to tell that the people who work there are very passionate. Would recommend!Written 4 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
