    Singapore’s first maritime museum, showcasing the maritime history of the region, will open next month. The museum will have on display the Jewel of Muscat, a replica of an Arab-style dhow that sunk in Indonesian waters in the 10th century.

    Singapore will get its first maritime museum on October 15. Called the Maritime Experiential Museum & Aquarium (MEMA), it’ll form the latest attraction at the Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) waterfront.

    RWS said the museum will be housed in an iconic steel and glass ship hull at the waterfront and will give museum goers a new experience that includes maritime talks and exploration on life-sized replica historical ships.

    This includes the Bao Chuan, a full-sized replica of the bow of legendary seafarer Admiral Zheng He’s treasure ship.
