Hello! Singapore Top Pick | National Gallery

CIVIC DISTRICT GUIDE TO THE BEST SINGAPORE MUSEUMS

Located in the heart of the Civic District, National Gallery Singapore is a state- of-the-art facility that oversees the world’s largest public collection of modern Southeast Asian art from the 19th century to the present. Housed in two of the nation’s most historic monuments—the former Supreme Court and City Hall—the 64,000-sqm gallery is the biggest visual arts venue in the city. Visit the gallery for exhibitions that create dialogues between the art in Singapore, Southeast Asia, and the world with the goal of fostering a creative and inclusive society. The gallery is also ideal for visitors traveling with children.

Complimentary hour- long tours for the various exhibitions are held daily for up to 20 people, in English and Mandarin. There is a group deal of 25% off admission tickets.
