ABBEY: Honestly, I didn't manage to visit Phil natl museum. Good thing I found time last christmas to visit singapore's. Its an open-house, meaning u can visit all the galleries free of charge. We went for the purple line and alight at douby ghaut, where we rode the circle line. After alighting at bras basah, we walked for about 300m until we reached the museum. We entered the history of singapore gallery. We were given each a Companion, an electronic narrator that guides you on your way to the gallery. We've seen paintings, artifacts, replicas and other historic icons on the gallery. We also take a look at the food gallery and presidential gifts galllery which exhibits the gifts from other foreign leaders.
WILL: It was December 25 and the Museum opens its door to all the people of here in Singapore, free of charge. Who we are to deny the invitation, hehehe. We alight at Bras Basah station of Yellow Line MRT.
A fine day of Saturday we went there to see the History, the food, presents to their presidents and even the Pompeii, exhibit.
Unlike other museum, here, taking pictures is allowed, but without flash. I really enjoyed the Singapore History Gallery. Entrance for this is SGD10. We have the "companion" a gadget provided by Sennheiser. It will be your personal guide.
Thank you National Heritage Board.
