The Live Turtle & Tortoise Museum of Singapore
Standing as the largest turtle museum in the world, The Live Turtle and Tortoise Museum of Singapore has an extensive collection of live reptiles, including species that are extinct in the wild. And hey, it’s only so often we get to visit someplace on our Little Red Dot that has earned a Guinness World Record.
From watching adorable tortoises roam around to feeding and petting them, the museum makes for a wholesome excursion for families with young kiddos, or for animal lovers. Here’s what to expect when heading down to this gem located near where ORTO Yishun used to be.
When is the Live Turtle & Tortoise Museum closing?
The Live Turtle & Tortoise Museum at Lorong Chencharu will be closing on 28th February 2025. This is due to development work around the Yishun ORTO area. They are set to move to a new home in Khatib around June or July 2025, but no concrete news has been given yet.
In the meantime, you can help keep the museum afloat and its turtles and tortoises well-fed by contributing to the museum’s fundraising efforts. You may send cash via PayNow to UEN 52933221C or write a cheque payable to The Live Turtle and Tortoise Museum.
