Asian Civilisations Museum

So right after my work, I went home to change and out.

Met Edmund and Victor at 4.30pm.


To Asian Civilisations Museum.

For students, the admission fee is FOC!


LOL! At first Edmund and Victor wondered what I was doing.

Because I kept touching the statue.

Actually I was completing this broken warrior 3D puzzle!


Then they joined in the fun.

But on another broken warrior.


The first exhibition : Life After Death








Multi-armed Quan Am :




Sandstone figure of Buddha protected by Naga Muchalinda :


Another one of the special exhibitions :

Terracotta Warriors: The First Emperor and His Legacy

Didn't take many pictures of that.


The following are the galleries of Asian Civilisations Museum.

Gallery 6 : China

The Kwek Hong Png China Gallery.


The model of a chinese tea house :




While going up to level 3, I saw a spot which I could camwhore cause of the good lighting!

And I was caught camwhoring by Edmund :




Galleries 5 & 5a : West Asia / Islamic




Galleries 4a : Southeast Asia

A Javanese gamelan orchestra :




Galleries 7 & 8 : South Asia

South Asia was the birthplace of two of the world's major religions,

Hinduism and Buddhism.


Sandstone capital with four shalabhanjika :

Two-sided capital with twin shalabhanjika women striking a dance-like pose.


South India :




Terracotta Chaturmukha Lingam :

The concept of pancha mukha is an invocation to five faces or the five elements.

They are the earth, water, fire, wind and ether.


The museum closed at 7pm.

Well, two more pictures before we left for dinner!




Suggested to have dinner at Marina Square.

Thus we walked through the Esplanade.


Had ramen at Kyo-Nichi.

Love this picture taken by Edmund :


My spicy charsiew ramen.




After that, we walked to Bugis for Ah Chew Desserts! =D

As usual, we had to wait for the long queue.
