"National Museum of Singapore is the oldest and largest museum in the nation—and a must-see on many travelers’ itineraries. The original domed building, designed by colonial engineer Henry E. McCallum in a neo-Palladian style, has been a local landmark since 1887. The architecture is beautiful to behold, particularly the glass rotunda. A sizable chunk of the collection is devoted to the history of Singapore and tracing the country’s evolution from British crown colony to independent nation." - Ashlea Halpern
