Singapore City Gallery

“A very well presented and informative museum with interactive displays showcasing the historical development and future city planning of Singapore. I spent a good 1 hour+ in the Gallery and also at the temporary exhibition in the building atrium. With entry being free, it is a great use of my time to learn more about arguably the most important public agency in the city-state. Surprisingly, plenty of tourists visited, albeit only because I presumed such a place was not high on the to-do list of foreign visitors (perhaps they're just having a quick post-lunch stroll after visiting the Maxwell Food Centre). The Gallery begins up the escalator at Level 2.”

“The best unplanned visit! I came here because I saw the ad on the bus and I didn’t regret it at all. I really enjoyed every section that tells the story of Singapore. You can find everything here: history, policies, transformations, and future planning. There are also lots of interactive things to try, from building your own city, photobooths, Lego setups, and more. So much fun to explore! Even without a guide, you can easily explore on your own since the explanations in each section are very clear. To explore everything might take a whole day because every corner is truly interesting and adds so much knowledge about Singapore’s urban development.”

“The best visualisation and modeling of a city plan that I've seen. Well detailed, thoughtfully laid out, tastefully organised and an aesthetically satisfying experience. This visit was a truly insightful experience for me. Very interactive exhibiting as well... Free access! Just brilliant from the government!”
