The musical box museum, situated next to Thian Hock Keng Temple at Telok Ayer Street, is certainly a lovely place to spend an evening.
Enjoyed a glass of Teh Peng at Chong Wen Ge Peranakan Café 崇文阁 while waiting for the next guided tour at 4:30pm.
The century old exquisitely handcrafted musical boxes, some of them still functionable, are simply awesome. Do listen to the few videos then you will know how delightful the sounds.
