Divided into 11 small galleries, the Asian Civilisations Museum along the Singapore River travels through Asia via a combination of sculptures, religious statues and manuscripts. Highlights include 18th-century Javanese shadow-puppets and items from the Raffles Museum.
The Asian Civilisations Museum aims to reflect the diverse multi-ethnic origins of Singaporean culture. It has a collection that is focused on the South East Asian, Chinese, Indian and West Asian regions.
The museum contains many permanent displays on Chinese history and culture, as well as several changing displays featuring other civilisations. There is also an ongoing programme of talks, workshops and other activities and tours can be arranged.
