" I really liked going here to the chapel and museum. Lots of fascinating facts and insights. I believe the museum is curently closed for renovations for a couple of years until sometime in 2020 which is a shame. Not sure why it is taking so long. It is a bit out of the way but worth the visit when it reopens for sure. "

" For info, from April 2nd 2018 to 2020, museum is closed for renovation.
One star because information on website is not obvious. Lots of other visitors arriving to be told its closed. Only the tiny Chapel is open. "

" Great museum commemorating those interred by the Japanese in the second World War. Very moving displays that give a very personal insite to the invasion of Singapore. Strongly recommend a visit whilst visiting Singapore. The best way to get there is to catch a taxi. "

" We visited here after the Battle box. It doesn't compare really. This museum had a lot of reading, although there was also an audio tour on offer. The display were memories of people who had been interred as prisoners of war. It was insightful and I really enjoyed seeing the paintings done by inmates with limited materials. No photos inside. "

" The museum size is not that big, but you can still see some history and feel the atmosphere of the war there, their white chapel is really a good place for you to have a self-moment in life to enjoy. "

" Small but precise and each harrowing example an important reminder that with the wrong leadership humans become awful, cruel animals. "

" Excellent museum. Allow at least 90 minutes. Strongly recommend the audio-tour option. We got there on a Number 2 bus (caught from Tanah Merah MRT) which took us almost directly to the museum entrance. "

" The museum takes the visitors along a painful period in Singapore's past and Changi's links during those dark days.

The displays are thoughtfully laid out, with contributions from survivors of the atrocities. It was a sombre feeling to be walking around the museum. Entrance is free of charge and the staff are very nice. "

" The small chapel, even though not air-conditioned, is surprisingly quiet and serene. The museum collections are moving, in par with the more popular Old Ford Factory. "

" Free admission with an optional paid tour. Possibly the only museum recalling the personal sufferings of the people during the Japanese occupation of Singapore, though the national museum has the news type recounting. I've been back several times. There's a food establishment there of mediocre quality. "

" I cannot say that this was a pleasant experience: the subject matter is anything but. However, it gave me a much greater understanding of the historical perspective of some aspects of Singapore. Educational and very worthwhile. "
