Singapore - The
National Museum of Singapore is just a short stroll along Stamford, passed SMU school of accountancy. I went to register to enter the museum and was told that today is free for all visitors. "What's the occasion?" I asked and was told "It is the opening ceremony of the children's corner.
I started off at Level 1 which housed the "Singapore History Gallery" - the exhibits starts from pre-colony era, The British colony times, WW2 under the Japanese occupation, Singapore today.

Children was spread lying on every corner of the floor looking up this spectacle of brilliant play of colours and creativity.
It was well worth my time @ this museum.
