The Asian Civilisations Museum (ACM) is one of Singapore’s top cultural attractions. Set along the Singapore River at Empress Place, ACM’s grand colonial architecture is part of its appeal.

ACM focuses on the diverse cultures and histories of Asia, especially those connected to Singapore’s roots. Visitors can explore galleries filled with treasures from China, Southeast Asia, India, and the Islamic world. On display are ceramics, gold pieces, textiles, sacred art, and shipwreck treasures discovered in regional waters.

The famous Tang Shipwreck exhibit shows how international trade linked Asia centuries ago. Interactive displays let visitors learn about Asian beliefs, trade history, and cultural practices.

Special exhibitions bring unique artefacts to Singapore that you rarely see elsewhere. Families and school groups enjoy interactive workshops, guided tours, and cultural festivals held at ACM.

Its spot by the river makes it here easy to combine a visit with dining or sightseeing at Boat Quay or Clarke Quay.

Whether you’re a history lover or just curious about Asian culture, ACM offers something new every visit.
