Down the old-new road - a visit to the Grande Olde Dame

The chandeliers were swinging above as we approached ...


As we neared them, the red chandeliers glittered under the glazed sunlight, as they swayed to programmed rhythm ...


We were at the Singapore National Museum, on the last day of the Museum Week. Soon after the re-opening of the National Museum.

The old charm was still there, yet with a dose of modernity. Such as in the round glass building that housed the Singapore History Gallery. A cylindrical-shaped building where one could walk back in time, from the 14th century times of Sang Nila Utama all the way to present-day Singapore.
