The take
A small museum in Holttum Hall inside Singapore Botanic Gardens, telling how the Gardens began on land granted in 1859. It's a short, cool stop between walks, and it closes on the last Monday of the month.
Good to know
Daily 9am–6pm, closed on the last Monday of each month
Entry is free; only the National Orchid Garden charges admission
Holttum Hall, the building that houses the museum, has its own architectural heritage
Finding it: Singapore Botanic Gardens, 1 Cluny Road, Singapore 259569. Napier MRT (TE12) serves the Tanglin Entrance
