Most people miss it out. On the third level, it features the Southeast Asian performing art, and you will get to see a gamelan ensemble exhibit, and find out more about it.)<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.neixuetang.org/" REL="nofollow">Nei Xue Tang - A Buddhist Art Museum</A><BR/><BR/>For an appreciation of the Malay and Muslim community, visit the area nearby the <A HREF="http://www.malayheritage.org.sg/" REL="nofollow">Malay Heritage Centre</A>. If you visit the Sultan Mosque (largest mosque in Singapore) during its visiting hours, you can even enter the mosque. There are robes for free rental so that you can enter the mosque with the appropriate clothing.<BR/><BR/>If time permits, you could consider:<BR/><A HREF="http://www.sentosa.com.sg/explore_sentosa/attractions/images_singapore.html" REL="nofollow">Images of Singapore</A> at Sentosa.<BR/><BR/>Or simply visit the <A HREF="http://www.nationalmuseum.sg/" REL="nofollow">National Museum of Singapore</A> (near your hotel). There'll be free admission to the Living Galleries from 6 - 9 p.m. everyday. But if you want to visit the History Galleries to get a glimpse of Singapore's history, you have to do so in the day-time.oceanskies79https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637499843542653266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10435639.post-54954878638150861382007-09-24T20:45:00.000+07:002007-09-24T20:45:00.000+07:00JY, could you suggest where to get nice chilli cra...JY, could you suggest where to get nice chilli crab.....<BR/><BR/>Jane will be staying in a hotel near Bugis area.oceanskies79https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637499843542653266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10435639.post-2429644847229923742007-09-23T23:00:00.000+07:002007-09-23T23:00:00.000+07:00how about some chilli crabs?how about some chilli crabs?goldilockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07204440640506601047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10435639.post-36234080802048504632007-09-23T22:13:00.000+07:002007-09-23T22:13:00.000+07:00I have put up some updates on my post on Singapore...I have put up some updates on my post on Singapore hotel....oceanskies79https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637499843542653266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10435639.post-6742474600967652392007-09-23T09:06:00.000+07:002007-09-23T09:06:00.000+07:00I have a personal liking for Bugis and Kampong Gla...I have a personal liking for Bugis and Kampong Glam area. This area is about 15 minutes bus-ride to Orchard Road where the Thai embassy is located. The nice part of it is that it is near Bugis MRT station, and it is within walking distance from the museums. There are also some nice food area and I love Kampong Glam area.oceanskies79https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637499843542653266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10435639.post-53128393808007622152007-09-21T06:21:00.000+07:002007-09-21T06:21:00.000+07:00woooo, Singapore! so many bloggers there for you t...woooo, Singapore! so many bloggers there for you to meet. say hello to them for me.<BR/><BR/>happy travels, enjoy yourself!mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03462864451396368720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10435639.post-65333266238361952002007-09-20T00:46:00.000+07:002007-09-20T00:46:00.000+07:00glad we caught each other on this. and yes, PY is ...glad we caught each other on this. and yes, PY is going to be so much better at this! she and msfeline brought kracker round the last time.mistipurplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02483567261600728148noreply@blogger.com
