The Asian Civilizations Museum (ACM) takes you on a thorough examination of the people from the area who have landed on our shores over the past 200 years to highlight this rich history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Asian Civilisations Museum is the only museum in the area that focuses on studying Asia&#8217;s creative legacy, particularly Singaporeans&#8217; ancestors&#8217; cultures. The ACM, which opened two additional wings with new galleries in late 2015, was founded in 1993 and has resided in its current facility along the Singapore River since 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ins class=\"klk-aff-widget\" data-wid=\"18357\" data-adid=\"754625\" data-actids=\"120,124,25872\" data-prod=\"mul_act\" data-price=\"true\" data-lang=\"\" data-width=\"336\" data-height=\"280\" data-currency=\"\"><a href=\"\/\/www.klook.com\/\">Klook.com<\/a><\/ins>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n  (function (d, sc, u) {\n    var s = d.createElement(sc),\n      p = d.getElementsByTagName(sc)[0];\n    s.type = \"text\/javascript\";\n    s.async = true;\n    s.src = u;\n    p.parentNode.insertBefore(s, p);\n  })(\n    document,\n    \"script\",\n    \"https:\/\/affiliate.klook.com\/widget\/fetch-iframe-init.js\"\n  );\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Asian Civilisations Museum highlights the historical links between Asian civilizations and those of the rest of the globe. The Trade and the Exchange of Ideas exhibit, which is located on the ground level, is where you&#8217;ll find artifacts and works of art that illustrate Singapore&#8217;s past as a hub for international trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Khoo Teck Puat gallery, located in the riverside wing of the ACM, houses the famed Tang Shipwreck collection, a sort of time capsule containing artifacts from 9th-century China that were kept secret from the outside world until their 1998 discovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained
