Images of Singapore

Images of Singapore is a historical museum in sentosa island. In this museum exhibits the culture and history of Singapore using multi-media displays. And theatre presentations show the major events in Singapore and Singaporean’s life.Firstly, I’ll talk about multi-media displays. This movie offers the creation of the merlion and earliest days of Singapore, and pre-British period of Malaysian rule, colonial Singapore, and Singapore’s first Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew etc. Through this interesting movie, we are feeling more familiar with Singapore, and have more curiosity about Singapore’s history and people. Secondly, I want to explain that theatre presentation. Theater is discovered all over the Singaporean’s life, religions, events and special holidays use human-size models. That is very attractable and impressible. We can see that Chinese, Malaysian, Indian and foreign people are living Singapore, but they are still maintaining their own culture and religion. I strongly suggest you, if you want to become one part of Singapore, this way is the most important way to you are getting know Singapore.
