4. Hua Song Museum

Hua Song, which means "in praise of the Chinese," opened to much acclaim in the spring of 2006. The museum details the inspiring stories of Chinese immigrants, not just those who came to Singapore but those who made their way to distant locales such as Canada, the US and South America. Some well-known individuals are documented, but mostly this is a museum dedicated to the average man and woman and their struggles and successes as they settled in new lands. A series of dioramas depict various scenes of Chinese migrant life, and there are plenty of vintage photos and artifacts to round out the exhibits. Quite fascinating.   (© 10Best)
