This week, we’ll be featuring posts from the blogosphere about Singapore’s latest addition to the museum scene – the Peranakan Museum at Armenian Street. Eastcoastlife shows us some scenes from the big bash over the weekend:

On 26 April 2008, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong officially opened the Peranakan Museum, which houses some of the finest and most comprehensive Peranakan collection in displays that trace the main episodes of Peranakan life. It is the first in the world to explore Peranakan cultures in the former Straits Settlements of Singapore, Malacca and Penang and their links with other Peranakan communities in Southeast Asia.
