Singapore Philatelic Museum

Every time I pass by the entrance of the philatelic hall, I am attracted by a red post box. We who used to send letters every week, but now we no longer need it. It has become a memory. I used to like to be in these small boxes I learned knowledge from it, but now I can only go to the philatelic hall to find the good memories of the past. It is also collected and sold inside, so be sure to bring some small gifts for yourself [price ratio] praise 👍 [interesting] praise 👍 [view] OK

This British-style building is located next to Fort Canning Park. There is an old red post box at the door. Inside is a bungalow with 2 towers. It contains many precious stamps from Britain, Southeast Asia, and China 100 years ago. You can buy stamps from many countries at the sales department at the door, and you can put yourself in the stamps and take pictures as a souvenir. [View] good [Fun] Very good [Price ratio] good

This is the earliest philatelic museum in Southeast Asia. It is worth seeing. You can learn about Singapore, including the history of the Straits Settlements and East India, and the history of postal development through stamps. The museum often changes themed exhibitions, and there are plans to visit every time.

This is a modern philatelic museum. The red postboxes left over from the colonial era are still preserved outside the door. Stations with different themes are held every year. The first floor is the history of stamp development in Singapore. You can see the changes in mailboxes. The second floor is the development process of stamps. There is a fixed exhibition room for stamps of various ages, including the Orange House where the world’s first stamps are collected, and the Purple House where stamp production is introduced. There is a philatelic shop in the museum, which is a favorite place for stamp collectors.

The Singapore Philatelic Museum is a very small private museum. It houses various stamps issued by Singapore in the past dynasties. Some of them are really old and very precious. In addition, there are many nostalgic little things here, which make people feel the sense of wasted time. Those who like nostalgia may wish to visit.

Stamps! They are almost a lost art as technology by way of emailing has virtually taken over written communications where we actually send something in letter form, put it in an envelop, stamp and send. I was an avid stamp collector for many years and was so excited to visit the Philatelic Museum in Singapore. It is both nostalgic and tragic. I root for the return of penpals and sending real letters to family and friends!

Singapore Philatelic Museum (SPM) is located in Armenian Street, a walking distance from Empress Place's Asian Civilization Museum (ACM), National Museum of Singapore (NMS) and Peranakan Museum. It contains collection related to philately, ranging from stamps to postal goods. It also has a modest philately shop offering stamps and tools for collectors. For memento purpose, you can buy stamp(s) and get cancelled (for your philatelic passport) or send a mail through this post office through the old postbox in front of the building. The collections are only modest, and can be seen in about an hour.
