The one and only Natural History museum in Singapore. This place is packed filled with exhibits, animal models, specimens, and information. The full dinosaur fossils are impressive although all belongs to the Diplodocus family. Natural history enthusiasts can easily spend half a day if they are willing to read all the descriptions of the displays. The description fonts are a tad too small for easy reading. Most children will like this place but probably only for 2 hours at most due to the complexity of the information. Highly recommended to visit at least once with families or friends.

Kids love dinosaur! The three dinosaurs fossil never ceases to impress us regardless of how many times we visit. Great place to spend time with kids and toddlers, where they can learn about wildlife, sea animals and insects. A bonus is its air conditioner so parents can relax too.

Super interesting museum, the place is not big, there are two floors where you can visit. Need to book tickets in advance. Very few people on weekdays. Various animal and plant specimens, which is a good place for education. Recommend!

Very informative and interesting museum. My wife and I expected to be there for less than an hour having looked at the floor plan, which looked small. We were surprised we stayed for over 2 hours. Most of the taxidermy were on the lower side, sometimes bordering humorous. Descriptions and displays were great and easy to understand. If you're into biodiversity, then I'd definitely recommend visiting this place. I had the opportunity to visit during the parasite exhibition and was pretty grossed in a good way. Kudos!

Brought my kids (both below 5) and they thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Small museum but chock full of stuff to see. Staff were really nice too! Dino and whale bones were the highlights but there’s plenty others to see as well! A gem!

Huge space (two storeys) with plenty of information to read about. Plants, fungi, reptiles, mammals, etc. the history is also quite relevant and in Singapore’s context. There is a limited time exhibition “Death by Man” which is quite sad. It showcases death of animals that is mostly a result of human’s selfish/evil actions. And they are in Singapore’s context. Be kinder to animals!

The last time i came was few years, back again with my family and we have spend a good time here looking and understanding the exhibits. My pictures doesn’t justify my enjoyment here, while this is not the biggest or the museum with the most collections however it is definitely a good place with enough specimens for me and my family. The entry is about SGD50 for family of 4. The place is cozy, feels clean and well maintained. We joined the guided tour (free of charge) (in chinese) by a volunteer Uncle. This uncle is knowledgeable and shared many fun facts, there are some jokes or “sayings” or background that can only be understated by locals. As a local, i dont know how some saying comes about, the uncle showed my the light today. Thank you for this experience

Went on a Tuesday afternoon and there was only a couple of people so really recommended to visit on weekdays, specifically mid week! It's been a decade since I came and the exhibits are still kept in pristine condition. It's as majestic as I vaguely remembered especially the huge dinosaur bones in the middle of the museum. Real animals are kept preserved in jars so if you like animal anatomy and dissections, this is gonna be a blast for you. It's paid entry so if you're a student, it's $8 for you while adult fee is $15. There's even a NSman pricing so get it while you're either a student or serving the army!

Had been wanting to visit this museum for a while as I fancied myself an amateur naturalist and finally made some time to go. I must say it lived up to my expectation’s. The signage was informative and the displays were really well done. Favorites were the huge Saltie, the sperm whale skeleton displays. The rest of the place was also awesome. I was glad I finally went and will do so again.

We bought the tickets from Fave which gave 9% disc for kid and 18% for adults. The display is very unique and kids can learned a lot from the diversity of animals and plants. Place is not crowded and staffs are helpful. Recommend for family outings.

This natural history museum doesn't try to be overly fancy in its exhibits, but it does have a good spectrum of animals, wildlife, and plants encountered in the region. Ticket prices are on the high side if you are not an avid fan. Although there is plenty of written information, if you have younger kids, you may have to find creative ways to sustain their interest. The animal displays are well organised. Overall, I found it somewhat interesting, but information could have been presented in a "less academic" manner, e.g, highlight interesting facts and anecdotes upfront.

Singapore’s very own natural history museum. If there’s one word to describe this place, it’ll be “elegant”. Its exhibits are beautifully curated, evoking the atmosphere of an art gallery. While it caters primarily to adults with its refined design, it offers fewer interactive elements for children.

We wanted to see the dinosaur bone that’s the reason we went here. This place is amazing I have never seen a museum like this. Our kids aged 8 and 3 enjoyed every bit of it

Finally Singapore has our own Natural History Museum. Looks smaller scale as compared to overseas version but the specimens are no less impressive. The dinosaurs and Sperm Whale is obviously the centre of the draw. Other interesting facts about specimens and history of nature in this part of the world is also truly fascinating. It is a pity that time slot is limited during this Covid-19 situation. Didnt manage to complete the whole place before closing hours. Will be a nice place to bring the kids to learn more about nature world and start them on a fascinating journey on our world.

A great place to learn about natural history in the Singapore context. Many exhibits and specimens packed in the deceptively "small" (compact) museum. Can easily spend 3 h. Too much to see and learn in one visit. Will be back!

Great place to visit with kids. Not too large to be tiring and not too small. Nicely organised displays, friendly staff. Not too crowded usually, but this should be at the top of your list of museums to visit in Singapore if you have kids.

An exceptional place to visit that showcases a remarkable collection of artifacts. This destination not only offers a visually stunning experience but also immerses visitors in a world of awe-inspiring fossils of animals & dinos, plants, animals and birds and preserves. Prepare to be amazed as you explore the captivating creature on display. Each piece tells a unique story. This kids-friendly place is a treasure trove for enthusiasts and curious minds alike. Price for adult and kid was at $16 and $9 respectively, no queue upon arrival - perfect for a weekday afternoon getaway. Spacious for the kids to roam about. Would be great if the souvenir shop has more variety. We had fun, good times!

Really fun to visit!! So many rare exhibits, and there’s a student + safra discount too. Amazing to stare these dinosaurs in the face

Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum is Singapore's first & only natural history museum. The museum has over 500,000 objects & over a million specimens. The collections are exciting for both children & adults. And the museum shop is full with nice products for kids. Good signage throughout the exhibition & helpful staff. The building itself exteriorly is an architectural experience & its surroundings are landscaped with native plants. It’s an iconic seven-story green building with stunning architecture. The museum displays three dinosaurs & it’s fascinating to experience them in their full natural size. They were found in a small town in the US & are believed to be part a family. The reason the History Museum has the three dinosaurs together in Singapore is due to a successful bid for the fossils two years ago for $8 million. A large part of the bill was for Mrs. Della Lee, wife of Lee Foundation Chairman Lee Seng Gee.

A very good place to gather knowledge about nature and history. Good detailing about all the animals and their origins are given. It's an amazing place to know about your favorite animal. I am amazed to see that. One can spent good 2 to 3 hours if interested to read and go through the details. Otherwise an hour is enough. Good exposure for kids to generate new and interesting thoughts.

If this collection had been properly preserved it might have been a unique world-class collection. Instead, in the 1970s, the government gave away much of it and only a bit remains. It’s still an interesting look at what early 19th century naturalists studied but is now mainly dominated by three dinosaur skeletons (yawn) from Wyoming. Outside is an appalling statue of Alfred Wallace and Ali, his very able assistant who is portrayed as a dwarfish sidekick.

Good weekend visit for historical artefacts.

The Lee Kong Chian National History Museum is a museum with a collection of over a million different plant and zoological specimens which were collected over south east Asia since 1840, some of which are the best in the world. The viewing gallery comprises of 2 floors, the main exhibit is on the first floor. There are plant and animal specimens and 2 giant dinosaur skeletons. The second floor houses the Singapore collection, which houses all the flora and fauna found in Singapore. Overall, it is a small museum compared to others, but will be satisfying to the natural history lover.

I loved it, a lot of information to learn, took me about 2hrs to walk through all, would be better if they have a designated path, from the start of life to humans so you don't jump from birds to dinosaurs suddenly. Overall worth coming at least once.

There's CNY discount, entrance ticket at only $7. Worth a visit, nicely organised and can finish within 2 hours.

Super interesting! Many taxidermy animals and great explanations! The museum is not that big but still well packed with information & displays. Convenient location as well! Its pretty near the bus stop☺️

One for small kids to early teens at the oldest. The payment devices were not working when I visited so I had to purchase a ticket online via Sistic whilst standing in the Lobby. If you know when you'll be visiting, definitely buy your e-tickets in advance! Small museum in size as above the main floor with the dinosaurs, there is a small area with one display. The exhibition was shut and there was nothing else to see. Due to this, the admission price of $16 was not worth paying for.

Great educational learning journey for both kids n adults. Even better if got eatery/ cafe nearby for public access .

A great way of introducing the topic of animal kingdom to children and teenagers. Though it was a lot to take in at one go .. my son really enjoyed his visit here. We actually couldn’t believe that most of these exhibits have been preserved and not just models. A very good job done here. I highly recommend this place for kids 8 and above.

This is a really great place to bring kids and explore the wealth of knowledge that comes through the history of the natural world. Love the cleaniness and also how organized the whole museum is:) love it!

Highly recommended museum in Singapore! Might be hard to access as it is located to the West (not as central) but this is good for all types of visitors, family/wheelchair friendly, perfect for an afternoon out! Visitors would gain a better appreciation for all things nature can offer, with insightful descriptions and even fossils - who would think Singapore has such a display! All in all, 9/10 and would come back again for sure.

Very extensive collection of specimens and bones of insects, birds, sea creatures and many more. Average visit is about 2 hours to walk through the 2 levels of exhibits. Very impress as a first time visitor.

Bought tickets online in advanced and was able to enter the place very quickly. And I thought all I was gonna see were dinosaur bones. Boy, was I pleasantly surprised. This is a very interactive and educational place to visit. Spent 3 hrs inside with my child and we had a really great time. Lots to see, lots to learn and lots of fun. Suitable for kids above 5.

The Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum (LKCNHM) is a natural history museum located in Singapore. It is named after Lee Kong Chian, a prominent businessman and philanthropist who donated generously towards the construction of the museum. The museum houses over 2 million specimens from the fields of zoology, paleontology, and biodiversity research, making it one of the largest natural history museums in Southeast Asia. The specimens are organized into 15 different collections, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and fossils. One of the highlights of the museum is the three dinosaur skeletons on display - the Prince, Apollonia and Twinky. The museum also features a large collection of Southeast Asian biodiversity, including over 2,000 species of plants, animals, and fungi found in the region. Visitors can also view specimens of extinct animals like the dodo and the thylacine, as well as a range of preserved animals like butterflies, birds, and mammals. In addition to the exhibits, the museum also offers a range of educational programs and activities for visitors of all ages. These include guided tours, workshops, and talks on topics like wildlife conservation, biodiversity research, and natural history. The museum also has a strong focus on research and conservation, with a team of scientists and researchers working to study and preserve the region's biodiversity. The museum's collections are used for scientific research and education, and the museum also collaborates with local and international organizations on conservation projects.

It was fresh being here to see history of things. The museum itself is located within university full of trees. Good for taking a stroll.

Wonderful natural history museum full of animals and fauna from Southeast Asia. Staff and guides were insightful, detailed and helpful. Guides explained interesting facts about many species and went in depth when talking about the whale that was found on Jurong Island. A must go if you’re interested in wildlife!

Great museum that’s fun for all ages. Came here with my mom (who’s a senior) and very accesible and easy to walk around. Nice examples of dinosaurs and lots of preserved animals. Good explanations throughout.

Do have plenty of time to spare here. Though it looks small in comparison to other Natural History museums of other countries, the vast amount of information here can minimally take you 3 hours to complete. The exhibits here are well curated, with sufficient details of each. The only gripe I have is that the lighting of some exhibits can cast a shadow on the description, thus, you have to adjust to a certain angle for proper reading. This museum does come with an interactive VR experience, however, the app that accommodates this does not support newer android phones. The museum has 2 levels and is also segmented into various categories of wildlife. There is also the mandatory gift shop at the exit. The staff were very polite and helpful. A highly recommended place to visit in Singapore.

Even though it is not a public museum(?), and the area is not so wide there are so many things to be studied, referred. Regarding the fossil of the dinosaurs, there are 1 leg of Triceratops and 3 whole fossils of Diplodocus.

OK museum, well laid out with information and some good replicas. Far too dry and non-interactive for smaller children The taxidermy and preserved specimens are hilarious in some cases as they were arranged in the early 1900s / late 1800s - look out for some superman squirrels and questionable facial expressions! Disappointing for my inner geek that not all the insects were labelled, the shop had sold out of magnets and there wasn't a cafe but good couple hours spent wandering round Foreigner $27 price tag

🌹Day of Trip-Sunday Price: $17 Local Adults and $9 3 years and above children. 🌹Getting there: Via Bus 96 from Clementi Mrt to the Museum is the best. Bus stop is less than 8 mins walk from the museum. 🌹Layout: The museum is very organised, clean and spacious. Level 1 and Level 2. 🌹Interesting: They have a Huge collection of specimens from birds, frogs, insects, fishes, sea shells,reptiles. 🌹Things to Note: Toilet is located outside the museum. Use the restroom before you enter if needed. The other restroom in the museum at level 2 is not open. 🌹The AR app clashed on my android phone multiple times and does not work.

Great place for family and kids to explore more in museum! Can spend more time at here to learn more natural history!

Wonderful experience! This museum is well-organised and the quality of and care put into the exhibits is amazing. Had a really good time here, my only regret is that I didn’t have more time to spend here.

This place has lots of specimens and you will get to learn about the names of different animals, shells and insects. There are 2 levels and the place could took you more than an hour to finish going through the exhibition.

Had an amazing time alone at the Museum. First time seing dinosaur fossils and you can actually touch some of the exposition that are allowed to touch. I think younger to grow up would love to go around. They had a special exposition which touch me a lot from how some of the animal died, but I would only recommend to adult. Have fun there!

With over 2,000 natural history specimens on display, I am totally lost in this amazing experience of nature in Southeast Asia! The museum’s three Diplodocid sauropod fossils were among the largest and heaviest animals to ever walk on land. More than 80% complete, of which two of these skeletons come with skulls – a rarity as far as sauropod dinosaurs fossils are concerned. Try snap a photo during their light shows, An Instagram boomerang will be nice. At the Heritage Gallery, you can take some great photos using portrait modes too. For those who likes outdoors, the phylogenetic garden outside will have sufficient natural sunlight for your photos :)

A wonderful museum. Not very large but we'll maintained with excellent exhibits and very informational. A good place to spend an afternoon if you have an interest in natural history.

Singapore's one and only natural history museum, situated on the edge of the oldest university in the country. Gives an introduction to the rich biodiversity found in this part of the world. Recommend to go for one of the guided tours, as anecdotes and stories shared by the guides can really enhance your understanding and appreciation of the exhibits.

Has a good collection of Paleo items and a very thought out display. worth spending 2.5 - 3 hours here. The dinosaur collection and the other mammalian, reptilian collection are excellent and displayed in a very educational manner. The plants towards the end was a disappointment (more of hype when you read about it and what you find in reality). IN a nutshell, worth visiting, esp if you have young children.

Very interesting place and full of knowledge. The specimens are complete and in good condition. The tour guide was so informative and helpful. I felt like i'm in the Night at The Museum movie. ?

Its a really good place to bring your kids or students for biology classes! Its really comprehensive and interactive. Will definitely come back here!

Nice place and reasonable price. Good place to bring your kids if they like dinosaurs. Not a good place for people who like very interactive stuff. Most exhibits are not so.

Interesting. Lots of fossils to see and learn. Money well spent. Spent more than 2hours here

Pretty interesting collection and well documented exposition. Easy to follow for non experts

If you have no ideas of life on Earth, visit LKC Natural Museum. History of creatures on Earth and their mutation and development since life started in Earth is explained here. The principle of "Natural Selection". Seated at entrance to NUS, your visit will enrich you with unprecedented learning if you have the time and passion to discover the "things" fascinating you. Explore and explore and be amazed.

Animal Crossing anyone ?

Well laid-out museum with interesting artefacts! Good insight into the natural history of Singapore

I came to visit for the first time on 16 Jun 2029 with a few of my friends. The museum organised a crime scene murder mystery game with students from Murdoch University. This was complimentary with ticket purchase. The students really put in a lot of effort to make the game. As for the exhibits, i was really impressed with the quality of the exhibits. The museum is really spacious and we could easily spend hours here. So many things to see.

(Translated by Google) Museum on the grounds of National University of Singapore. The admission fee is usually 20 SGD, but half the price is for the promotion to resume after the corona is closed. It's a pity that the interactive exhibition is suspended instead. Although the area is small, the density of the exhibition is high and it takes 2 hours. It's subtle to come again If you are a resident, it might be good at least once. It's not directly related, but because of corona A meal facility purchase facility and a shuttle bus on the university premises It was extremely inconvenient because it was disabled only for students (Original) 国立シンガポール大学の敷地内にある博物館。 普段は入場料20SGDだが、コロナ休館後の再開プロモーションで半額。 かわりにインタラクティブ展示が休止中になっていて残念。 面積は狭いが展示の密度が高く２時間はかかる。 もう一度来るかというと微妙だが 在住者なら一度は良いかも。 なお、直接関係ないがコロナのせいで 大学敷地内の食事施設購買施設、シャトルバスが 全て学生以外使用不可になっていて極めて不便だった

Worth every single penny spent. I spent about 2hrs+ here and managed to look through almost everything. This place has got an extensive collection of mammals, biodiversity and the process of gathering and labelling every artifact is an impressive job done. Definitely a place for family, couples or a solo traveller looking to learn more about the beauty of the world. This place is very similar to London’s natural history museum and I really enjoyed my time here.

I’m glad they reopened after the COVID19 lockdown. My kids loved it.

U can spend up to 1.5 to 2 hours there. Good place to learn natural science

(Translated by Google) good job (Original) 厲害厲害

A must come if you like animal biology and have an interest in Singapore's contribution over the years. Detailed explanations are available for those who enjoy reading. There are dinosaurs here, need I say more? ?

(Translated by Google) It wasn't wide, but it was fun to see everything from shellfish and insects to dinosaurs. Why do many snails carry clockwise shells? Hey! There were many discoveries to study. (Original) 決して広くないのですが貝や昆虫から恐竜まで見ることができて楽しかったです。かたつむりはなぜ右回りの貝を背負っているものが多いのか？など、へぇ〜！と勉強になる発見が多くありました。

A Nice Place to experience and see a million old fossils

Good play for kid and who want to know about natural

Very bad. Had to pay 9 dollars(card not accepted, cash only) although I showed NTU student card. Nothing to really see and so small!!

Great place to visit for a keen eyed kid. Founding of Straits Malaya, 200years history, dinosaur and many more to be explored. Will visit another day with rest of family.

Amazing building

(Translated by Google) The tour is super clear (Original) 導覽超級清楚

Museum was smaller than expected, exhibition was alright but can be improved to make it more interactive and interesting

Had a good 2 hours here looking and reading the exhibits.

(Translated by Google) It was a good memory to visit with the children. I visited the University of Singapore for a while, but it was time to visit the museum. (Original) 아이들과 방문해서 좋은 추억이었다. 싱가포르 대학도 구경해보고 잠깐이지만 박물관도 관람하는 시간이라 뜻깊었다.

Very curious museum for nature lovers

Nicely laid out collection showing natural wonders. Some of the taxidermy was badly done but age and time might be why. Gave us a good laugh. The wet specimens were fantastic and the ability to touch some objects was fantastic for my 4 year old to get up close and personal. Great place. Somewhat difficult to get to via public transport but worth a visit.

Collections are good and well kept

Really informative! Wish we had more time to spend here.

Very cool

(Translated by Google) It's fun, so many animal sights. (Original) 好玩,好多動物標館看。

Educational place

Great experience. Quite expensive, but worth it, even for kids. My 4 year old threw a tantrum when it was time to go home ?

(Translated by Google) The child is very curious, too many questions, and I do n’t know how to answer. The specimen magnifying glass is too high. (Original) 非常棒 孩子好奇心都很重 太多问题不知怎么回答 標本放大镜太高了三四岁孩子都旡法自己看到

A great place for learning about nature and animals. Surprisingly not many people. Should visit more often.

(Translated by Google) Detailed explanation and various samples I went with my cousin and took pictures with the animals (Original) 설명이 자세하고 표본이 다양함 사촌형과 갔는데 동물과 사진찍으며 재밌었음

Very educative museum, cozy and quiet. Lots of collections, interesting for both adults and kids.

(Translated by Google) This is a great place.The scenery is beautiful.Everyone is also very friendly and enthusiastic.In addition, the air is very fresh and cool.Everything here is great.I really like this place. Hongây là một nơi tuyệt vời. Phong cảnh thật đẹp. Mọi người cũng r Nt thân thiôn và nhiệt tình. This is a great place. The scenery is beautiful. Everyone is very friendly and enthusiastic.

I had a good 1.5 hours here learning about various animal species. There are two floors to the museum. On the first floor, there are informative exhibits about the various species like fungi, mammals, plants and birds. Right in the centre are also the dinosaur fossils. The second floor provides a more local flavour of biodiversity, by showcasing animal collections from Singapore.

Good place to visit if you have a couple of hours. Went on a weekday and it wasn't crowded. Booked tickets online and there were 3 slots starting 10 am, 1 pm and 4 pm. The dinosaurs are the star attraction and there was some lighting show that was interesting...

There are lots of things on exhibition. But overall it is a bit small and hard to get there. One of the easier way to get there is to take to Kent Ridge MRT and take bus 151 (or D2 if the NUS shuttle bus driver allow you to board the bus). Total time spend is around an hour plus.

Not as big as natural history museums in places like Tokyo or London, but still very interesting and includes a wide selection of exhibits. Took my 5 year old son a d we were both very satisfied. Its a place I'd happily.go back to on my own and spend a few hours.

Great place for children to explore and learn but a little pricey.

An educational place for the young ones to visit.. very detailed and interesting history to learn about. Place is very comfortable. Need to book tickets online to regulate crowd..

Good place to bring kids to visit during this festive days. The ticket is selling at 50% of the normal price. Check it out.

impressive museum

Nice place😊😊

(Translated by Google) It's not very big, but it's ok to collect many tropical species from Southeast Asia. (Original) 沒有很大，不過收集許多東南亞熱帶品種，還ok。

Very Good You get to see hidden creatures

Fulfilled my childhood dreams of seeing dinosaur bones in a museum like the hollywood movies, i.e. night at the museum.

Great place with huge collection

Wide variety of animal fossils ranging from sea creatures, bugs, birds, amphibians, mammals and dinosaurs! Interesting experience 👏

The kid enjoyed it, but pricy for what it is...

While they may not have specific star exhibit as a crowd puller, however they did a good job showcasing what they have.

Small but proud to have this in Singapore

Exhibits are great, and a different experience compared to Science Centre (this is more for adults). It’s also recommended to park at the nearby building’s shelter carpark in view of recent rainy weather and walking distance is less than 5 mins.

I come to this place with my high school classmate. Last for about two hours.

An eyeful ! A good chance to educate us about the natural side of Singapore!

Zero curation.

This is no much to see.

Nice place to visit...🦕🦕🦕

One of the few places that has dinosaur bones. It does tell from the start of the evolution cycle of earth to the best they can. Along with the history from during the British era as well. Worth the time and price

Good place for family visit.

You need a lot of time to read through the myriad of information there in order to sieve out some new surprises. Most part its like reading an encyclopedia... Try the AR app to see below the animals. That os 1 of the newly added features

Dinosaur few but the whole collection of other animals is quite massive, maybe more dinosaur exhibits would be great? interactive exhibits closed due to Covid-19

(Translated by Google) It has a rich display of animal and plant specimens, all flying from the sky and swimming under the sea. It has been around for nearly two hours (Original) 具有丰富的动植物标本展示，从天上飞的带海底游的都有，逛了接近两个小时

A good museum for kids 3-10 years old. Unfortunately, some installations are off at the moment due to COVID. Some parts could also use a more didactic approach rather than academic. Presently some sections of the permanent exhibitions, and temporary spaces alike, have too much text content and it feels slightly redundant.

1st floor for the kids, 2nd floor for the bio-geo-history geeks. Really detailed and well organized! The staff are friendly and take initiative to help those around them, which is amazing. The gift shop has a food range of books too!

Amazing museum

A relatively small museum but very informative and well maintained for a Natural History Museum. Perfect for a quiet afternoon.

A large collection of artifacts. Better for older kids :)

Nice to know that there's a Natural History museum right here in Singapore. It's probably for slightly older kids and givesa thorough overview and details of the animal and plant species that inhabit ) inhabited this beautiful earth.

Visited the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum on the weekend. They are open from wed to Sunday. 3 time slots are available each day, 10am, 1pm and 4pm. Last entry is at 6pm if I didn’t wrongly. This Museum is also easily accessible, there are shuttle bus and the nearest mrt station is kent ridge circle line station. Admission fees are clearly stated on website. They do have a session of guided tour at 1pm. If you enjoyed animals or the natural, I believed you will have enjoyed the museum as much as me. Spent closed to 2 hours in the Museum. I was really amazed by all the mounted bird and mammal specimens displayed in the Museum. The most interesting display has to the the skeleton display of the female sperm whale that was washed up to the shore of Jurong island.

Very useful and knowledgeable place. The only natural history museum here in Singapore ❤️

Kids are excited when they are able to see the actual size of the dinosaur

Good place for kids to learn about natural history. We got CNY promo ticket for $8 by internet. But it was till the end of Feb.

菌、貝、昆虫、鳥、動物、、からの恐竜。 沢山見ることは出来るけど30分もあれば終わってしまう。あとはアクセスの悪さと入場料の高さかなぁ。 たまたま8ドルプロモに間に合ったので行けてラッキーでした。どこかにアートを感じられる空間がシンガポールらしいです。

it was enjoyable :)

(Translated by Google) Small but beautiful fossil museum (Original) 小而美的化石博物館

Worth to visit, a lot of collections in the exhibition.

Amazinh collections

My son loves dinosaurs and animals, and we found out about LKC museum through luck when I keyed in dinosaurs in Singapore. He absolutely loved the place, especially the full sized Apatosaurus skeletons that gives you the feeling of being so tiny, and flying pterosaurs (I think one of them is a Tupandactylus) hung high up. Besides the dinosaur skeletons, there are also many animal stuffings as well as insect specimens. Altogether very comprehensive and it will be a very educational visit for primary schoolers that gives relatable science-subject relatable knowledge.

Very enriching trip!! Although all the interactive exhibits had been turned off, there still plenty of interesting exhibits to keep kids engaged. But I think younger kids will be harder to manage. Do download the app from the QR code first if you don’t want to look for it in the compound. It bring the dinosaurs to live!! Can easily spend 2 hours there for young primary children if we go though everything. Awesome place to spend time with children!!

Very nice and beautiful museum! Went with my 6yo, and I "lost" her to another girl the same age also with the camera. This is a place where kids are actually interested in what they are seeing. The staff was very friendly, and the expo is interesting even if due to safety restrictions some of the interactive features are closed.

Well worth a trip, especially with kids. Great place for family interactive activities. Going through the whole museum can take up to 2 hours. Can learn lots of new stuff, and get to know living things around Singapore

Get informative place. If you like life science, this is the place to go for fact.

An interesting museum in NUS! Will come back for sure (recommend for NUS students)

While quite small in size, it definitely have many intriguing exhibits!

Nice place, spent about 2 hrs there. Learn alot , worth the trip

Small, compact museum with a large collection of taxidermy upstairs alongside the Diplodocus family which light up in iridescent colours to impress! Children liked the bones and we played ‘guess the egg’ or ‘guess the type of insect’ with the displays. Take a break outside, have a snack, and go back in for a second round to get your money’s worth.

Love it here, love the 3 original dinosaur's skeleton especially! This museum has alot of specimens which is amazing to view and see. Really good information as well. Spent quite a while here reading and looking through all the specimens. Especially cool to see that some of these specimens are collected and found here in Singapore and there are the old notes for where exactly these specimens are found at in Singapore.

Informative museum with the dinosaur exhibits! Good place to visit to learn more about nature. Running the body snatchers exhibit now - go and take a look if you are into parasites 😂

A great place for one who’s into natural history of the earth, plants, animals, etc. The exhibits and the explanation is very comprehensive. The centrepiece is the three skeleton of the dinosaurs, standing at the middle of the building. Do download the AR app and enjoy the animated view when looking at the dinosaurs. The place is not huge but will probably take you approximately two hours to cover the exhibits in brief. For those who are going in depth, you might need at least half a day there.

Had a good time learning about natural history.

Good educational experience for children, teens, and even adults. Probably not very suitable for younger toddlers as the displays are located higher than their eye level (and there is no sensory play).

Really interesting to see the exhibits about nature that surrounds us. The dinosaur bones are a real treat too, but it's easy to miss the pterodactyl hanging from the ceiling though. It's very very quiet and peaceful if you go on weekdays (barring some guided tours for school kids).

Lovely experience and my toddlers enjoyed the exhibits was great explaining to them and going through the exhibits! Well done to the team who have planned, preserved and maintain all these natural historic pieces for the musuem. Would be great if kids activities could be planned in the facility as well for more engagement.

Super interesting place for adults and children alike. Can spend half a day here if you are interested to read all the information. Very well maintained museum that everyone should visit

“The observer listens to nature: the experimenter questions and forces her to reveal herself” Quoted from the first modern palaeontologist, Georges Cuvier. In this archeological museum, many have learned the importance of palaeontology and its meaning to modern society. Fossils and transparent canopic jars display a variety of deceased, but well-preserved animals of every type. Varying from the exoskeleton of the tiniest insects, to the very skull of the centrally-positioned brachiosaurus presented in the museum (as intended to be the highlight of this museum). Two storeys of up-to-date and informatively written details of every fossil displayed, the curators of this museum have indeed, worked hard and are well-versed in the works of palaeontology and its sister-branches. Atmospherically, the scene maintains a clear, pure and almost serene node of calm. The air runs unpolluted and unblemished, allowing visitors to brisk through the artefacts of old. Temperatures run mildly algid, having guests leaving in relief. The service staff presented themselves warmly, allowing visitors to feel welcomed and elated to be here. In all, visiting this museum has educated me far more than what I already knew. I arrived as a husk of disheveled rumours, and I left as a relic of knowledge.

I can't decide which impresses me more: the preserved specimen or the presentation of the exhibits! This is a place where I could easily spend an entire day. Although it charges entrance fees even for locals, I find the fees quite reasonable considering the experience you'll receive in return!

We bought tickets on spot, reasonable price and senior citizen pay less. No queue and not crowded at all. Very interesting museum even my mom like it.

A very pleasant surprise to find many local specimens. It’s fun to know the different spices living in this region and in Singapore. The museum is very well maintained and despite being small has quite a lot on exhibit.

Great experience. Real skeleton of whale on display. Most of the exhibits are preserved and real. Very few are models

Very interesting experience! Went on a Sunday and it wasn't crowded. There were plenty of things to see and the dinosaurs were awesome! Good way to spend an afternoon here

Nestled within the National University of Singapore, the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum seamlessly combines state-of-the-art exhibits with a rich collection of natural wonders. Upon entering, you are immediately greeted by the imposing skeleton of the Diplodocus, setting the tone for the incredible journey ahead. The museum boasts an extensive range of exhibits, from awe-inspiring dinosaur fossils to meticulously preserved specimens of flora and fauna. The attention to detail in each display is commendable, providing an immersive and informative experience.

A beautiful and enthralling experience. The dinosaur bones were the pièce de résistance of their entire collection, not that the other pieces were not amazing mind you. From Avians to deep sea wild life, their taxidermy was top notch and mesmerizing. I recommend visiting as It's often considered as a "hidden" attraction as it's not as advertised compared to Singapore's other offerings. I heavily, HEAVILY recommend a visit at least once when you're in Singapore
