My husband and I are "highlights and famous things only" kind of people when it comes to our interest in art. The gallery doesn't have anything famous (at least nothing that our very layman selves have ever heard of) but we were impressed! Beautiful space and massive collection of local and Asian art. Highly recommend to join one of the free guided tours - we thought the quality was superb. The guide was very knowledgeable and added a bit of history and colour to each one of the pieces. Made the visit a lot more interesting despite us looking at art we've never heard of. We have spoken to friends who had the same experience. If you have a bit of spare time - definitely worth spending a couple hours here. Like others have mentioned, do go up to the top floor and enjoy the view.

Starts with a stunning entrance way. Lots of galleries to choose from. Was especially interested in the Asian artist collection I don't get to see much of at home. Helpful assistants. Lunch good in the less expensive area. Fun exhibit of balloon art.

This gallery stands comparison with the very best around the world: Washington, DC; London, UK; Paris; Rome; Berlin; Ottawa. The holdings are extensive, and of a very high quality. It is a bit of a maze, so be sure to use the map that is provided.

Visited this place which has nice interior and art pieces on display. Worth a visit when one has the time. There are also nice restaurants on site and an observation deck at the TOP where one can look across the Padang to MBS.

Visited with a friend, free for Singaporeans and they also provide free guided visits. Violet Oon has a restaurant there and I love the tour of the toilets in the holding cells. Nice paintings and architecture, good mix of old and new.
