Singapore's only live turtle and tortoise museum

Welcome to Singapore's only live turtle and tortoise museum, located at ORTO. It's a great spot for a family outing, but it was once close to eviction -- which thankfully didn't happen because it caught PM Lee's attention.

The staff here are so friendly and kind! I really enjoyed my visit there.

[@L0ckSoul44]

I miss those times when The Live turtle and Tortoise museum was at Chinese Garden, I love going there more than ORTO :(

[@CK-wv9pp]

I love turtles! I will visit after the covid19 situation is over. Thanks for keeping this place alive. Please do keep it going!

[@JC-kp3bf]

I had been there as a young 9 year old kid back in 2008 when this live meusem use to be in Chinese Garden in jurong east, it was very close to my residential place, now im 22years old and It just hit me after seeing a bunch of turtles yesterday that "what happened to this place today?"
So I searched the internet and couldnt understand why its showing ORTO.
now after the owner said they moved their place, things got clearer. The Chinese Garden time was absolute legendary. I guess i will visit their new place in ORTO now the next time i visit Singapore.

Very inspiring and good job there maintaining the whole ecosystem. Do you know how hard it is to keep one single red eared slider?! Add oil and thanks to PM Lee.

Hey, I've been to that Orto place quite a few times to eat the 80¢ boat noodles. Didn't know there is a Turtle Museum. Grrrrrrrrrreat job - keep going!

[@deborahpoh4729]

[@cherrypiemotionz]

[@resha8166]

but so may of the turtles are cooped up in a small tank 🥺

[@thepriceofsalt9003]

unfortunately due to space constraints. animals always need adequate space but it's hard to find that in singapore. i believe the chinese gardens was more spacious :(

[@qissynur1743]

is the turtle museum tmr?

[@saltytroopa6578]

Tortoises are cute.
Live tens hundreds of years but still cant see what's fingers and long beans

[@patjisung]

Omg . This made me miss my sullys and pig nose so very much. 😢😢😢

[@kcollectibles284]

Good stuff

[@daryld357]

Surprisingly fun to get up close and feed the giant tortoises! Its a good break frm using ur phone all day long too. Hope ppl will continue to support them 🙏

[@CH-vm6cq]

What a miserable life for the animals ☹️

[@thepriceofsalt9003]

she actually takes care of them and knows that they need space, sunlight, food and proper care to survive among other things, which she provides for them. if i were you, i wouldn't be too worried about the turtles, they're in good hands.
won't go in depth about animal cruelty and pet keeping because i had to write about that for english essays all the time.

[@max_yttds4516]

Can I release my turtles here like give them cuz they are getting too big for the tank and my house is not big enough (urgently need a reply) also its illegal to release turtles in the while so pls suggest a place the turtles can enjoy and have fun and also not get hurt at the same time where the staff actually care about them(urgently need reply). Please anyone can reply also must be in 🇸🇬.

[@heykyu5892]

The tanks are dirty and too small though

[@quirkyqwerty2935]

[@shantanukadam2459]

[@noormuhd8215]

So there are no sea turtles?

[@CH-vm6cq]

I hope not!!! A crappy tank is no place for a sea turtle.

[@davidaw104]
