Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum

Have you ever wished to witness the fossils of a real-life dinosaur? You won't have to travel far to find the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum. It's one of the few museums in the world dedicated to Diplodocus fossils, as well as Southeast Asian flora and wildlife. Not to mention the opportunity to see up close the sperm whale carcass discovered near Jurong Island in 2015. It may not be the largest natural history museum in the world, but its distinctive collections demonstrate why Toplist believes it is well worth a visit. The exhibits would take roughly 2 to 3 hours to examine, making it ideal for anyone looking for a fast afternoon out.

There are also free guided tours available, however, these are now unavailable till further notice. However, unlike large museums, it lacks dedicated activities and programs for children, which may be a disadvantage for some. The museum, on the other hand, can accommodate schools and special group excursions geared to various levels and ages. While there are no free entrance costs at this museum, residents, students, PR holders, and others can take advantage of special discounts. Admission prices are free for NUS workers, students, and children under the age of three.
