5 Singaporean Museums: The Story of a Modern Powerhouse
Situated along the Singapore River, the Asian Civilisations Museum (ACM) offers a fascinating glimpse into the diverse cultures that have shaped Asia's history. Housed in the grand Empress Place Building, the museum boasts an extensive collection of artefacts from China, India, Southeast Asia, and the Islamic world.
One of its most captivating exhibits is the Tang Shipwreck Collection, which showcases thousands of ceramics, gold, and silver treasures from a 9th-century Arabian ship that sank in the Java Sea. Visitors staying at Copthorne King's Hotel Singapore will find the museum conveniently located, making it an ideal cultural excursion during their stay.
