Free Museums to explore in SINGAPORE

Free Museums to explore in SINGAPORE

Singapore is one of my favorite travel destinations. While the city-state is incredibly lovely, its hot temperatures and high humidity can be overwhelming at times. When the heat becomes too much, escaping to an air-conditioned spot is a must. Fortunately, Singapore offers a variety of museums with free entry for both foreign tourists and locals. Here’s a list of 13 must-visit museums where you can take a break from the heat and immerse yourself in learning. Enjoy your exploration!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
"Hi, I’m Clizia, AKA American Coffee Travel – your guide to the world! I’ve been sharing my stories from every corner of the globe on social media, since 2014. Explorer at heart and passionate planner. With 30+ countries, 4 continents, and nearly two decades of travel planning experience, I think that the world is best traveled when every detail is planned. Follow me on FB and Instagram @americancoffeetravel I’ve explored the world in every way imaginable – from full-time babysitting to not-very-cozy car camping. For me, travel isn’t just about the big moments; it’s about the small, beautiful details: the unique taste of coffee, a flower I’ve never seen before, the scent of foreign food, or even the design of a manhole cover. Every detail is cherished in my heart, and I’m here to share how even the simplest moments can become unforgettable memories. Japan is a place that I’ve been calling home. From Solo adventures to trips with friends, I’ve traveled and lived in the country, immersing myself in its rich culture, hidden gems, and rhythms. My love for Japan, its culture, and its landscapes makes me the perfect guide to this unique country. Currently based in Australia, I’ve traveled over 10,000 km exploring its beautiful nature. If you're looking for the ultimate road trip experience, I’ve got you covered. Car camping is my gem, and with Australia’s incredible national parks, you’ll be immersed in jaw-dropping landscapes, and new fauna.
