Did you know we have cool hidden treasures in our local museum scene? We\u2019ve all been to cultural bigwigs like National Gallery Singapore and the National Museum of Singapore, but apart from these top-notch galleries<\/a> and their permanent exhibitions<\/a>, the city is also home to a number of secret museums. We say it\u2019s time to ditch the mainstream (just for a bit!) and take a deep dive into obscure spots that cover everything from music and movies to animals and history.<\/p>\n

Best secret museums in Singapore<\/h2>\n

1. Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum<\/h3>\n

This secret museum is nestled on the grounds of the National University of Singapore and holds unique specimens you’d never think to find in our corner of the globe. Always wanted to take a peek at a real dinosaur skeleton? It holds not just one but three diplodocid sauropod fossils that are about 80% complete. You’ll even find the well-preserved remnants of a giant leatherback turtle and a sunda pangolin here. Talk about eye-opening!

Situated next to the majestic Thian Hock Keng Temple at Telok Ayer, it houses antique items (including gramophones) from Europe and the US. While we\u2019re used to seeing palm-sized musical boxes, some of the intricate ones on display can tower over visitors! Psst: sign up for a guided tour to learn more about their history while enjoying classic tunes.

Travel back in time to 1941. That’s when the Ford Motor Company set up its factory at Bukit Timah after its establishment on our shores in 1926. During its glory days, it was Ford\u2019s first motorcar assembly plant in Southeast Asia. But when wartime came, it was turned into a facility for fighter planes and military vehicles. Now a national monument, the former factory features a permanent WWII exhibition that looks back on its legacy. It’s a fitting place, as this was where the British met the Japanese to officially surrender Singapore in 1942.

History buffs, where y\u2019all at? Fort Canning Hill may be a familiar hangout for most of us. But did you know the lush nature spot is home to a former WWII British underground command centre? Dating back to 1936, The Battlebox is where the British decided to surrender Singapore to the Japanese in 1942, Now, it\u2019s a restored museum home to a maze of secret rooms and corridors. They’re filled with wartime artefacts, recreations and shows that bring you back to the past. How\u2019s that for a real-life history lesson?

If you\u2019re intrigued by Peranakan culture, we can think of no better place to indulge your curiosity than The Intan. It\u2019s the private shophouse home of Alvin Yapp, who welcomes guests into his abode. This is where you’ll get a close-up glimpse of Peranakan culture, tradition, food and lifestyle. A tea, lunch or dinner experience takes you around the space to marvel at his collection. Think artefacts, embroidery crafts, knick knacks and furniture pieces. Best of all, you can spend the rest of the day exploring the heritage \u2018hood of Joo Chiat<\/a>!

Making its home in Yishun<\/a>‘s Orto, this sanctuary for turtles and tortoises aims to rescue and rehabilitate these creatures \u2013 especially the rare species among them. We love that its box turtles and terrapins wander freely around the park. That means a hands-on learning experience for the family as visitors get to pet and feed them. If you\u2019re lucky, you may even get to see the reptiles mate or watch their eggs hatch! But head over while you can, ‘cos Orto will shut its doors in 2023 and its tenants are due to move out by June.
