Info

Lau Pa Sat (Chinese: 老巴刹; pinyin: Lǎo Bāshā; literally: "Old Market"), also known as Telok Ayer Market (Malay: Pasar Telok Ayer; Chinese: 直落亚逸巴刹), is a historic building located within the Downtown Core in the Central Area of Singapore. It is currently a food centre. There are several shops inside the market such as a 24 hours Cheers Store, a shoe repair shop, a tailor and a laundry store. In the evenings on the weekend a live band plays at the stage in the middle of the market.
The market remains one of the oldest Victorian design structure in the South-East Asia and one of the first structure built in pre-fabricated iron in Asia. It is also the only remaining market left that served the residents in the central district of early Singapore.
