National Museum of Singapore

The National Museum of Singapore, located at 93 Stamford Road, is Singapore's biggest and oldest museum, with history dating back to 1887.

With its official opening in Dec 2006 after major redevelopment, it aims to redefine conventional museum experience. One innovation is the use of a multimedia handheld device, the Companion, at the Singapore History Gallery.
You may also like to find out more about its architecture via its official web: http://www.nationalmuseum.sg/ , select About the Museum/Architecture and Design. One decoration that caught my attention during last visit is the swinging lamps near the Canyon. (I felt like I had walked into Harry Potter's movie plot :-) )

The Museum is accessible via Nearest MRT: Dhoby Ghaut or City Hall
or via Bus: to alight before YMCA or along Stamford Road.
