The surprising National Museum

Posted by noelbynature

If you still haven’t visited Singapore’s National Museum – shame on you! The museum has a lot more to offer than just dusty old artefacts – just take Arriffin for example, who visited the museum to look at the Singapore Stone… but ended up discovering a whole lot more.

When was the last time I visited the National Museum of Singapore? Hmm…as far as I can tell…that’s ages ago! Back in my days of secondary school. Its either when I was in Sec 2 or 3..can’t remember the exact level from there. Haha! =D

I was sooooo drool by the lobby that I didn’t even take a shot of it. I can’t really remember how it looks like when I first visited it decades ago. But I did remember how me and my friends just ran in through the halls without even waiting for instructions, and in the end, was called back outside where we get scolded by our teachers for behaving like monkeys. The management was not happy, obviously. Also, I remember one of the staff there, saying there’s a rumour that some would say that the museum is haunted, cause a few witnesses claimed that they happened to saw a ghost of Sir Stamford Raffles roaming through the halls! Of course, till this day, there’s no evidence to proof of such.

It doesn’t look like Arriffin bumped into any ghosts at the museum, but he certainly discovered a lot more than just what he was looking for. Read more about his visit to the House of National Treasures here.
