Behind Closed Doors Singapore Public Housing Tour

Step inside a local home and discover a lesser-seen side of Singapore’s public housing. Walk through Lavender and Jalan Besar to uncover the stories behind one-room rental flats and the people who call them home. Meet longtime resident Uncle Chow and visit his character-filled one-room rental flat, featured in local newspapers. Hear his story and discover how he has made this small space his own. Trace Singapore’s journey from crowded shophouses to public housing estates. Explore the corridors, shared spaces and design details that shape daily life, and hear residents’ stories of the changing neighbourhood. Along the way, savour traditional cakes and pastries from a neighbourhood bakery with more than 60 years of history.
