This tour brings you to two different suburbs to experience how Singaporean's truly lived. First stop is Toa Payoh, one of Singapore's oldest housing estates. Built more than 30 years ago, this vibrant township offers excellent value for shopping and local foods. It is also home to the Housing Development Board (HDB), the government agency that built over 80% of housing for the population. |

Toa Payoh, was transformed by HDB from a swampy, farming area Singapore's first
self-contained new town, complete with schools, shopping, housing and factories.
We'll visit the HDB Gallery for an insight into the history of planning & developing
of housing in land-scarce Singapore; as well as their plans for the future.
Next sample products off a local bakery, Bread Talk, who transformed the bakery
industry
with its imaginative ingredients, creative names and innovative presentations.
Learn about traditional herbal remedies of Hockhua Ginseng Birdnest Trading and
on how they balance our body functions to keep us healthy. Then do some shopping
of your own or simply sit in the square and people-watch.
The second suburb we'll visit is Holland Village where expats and locals mix.
This organic 'village' is renowned for its excellent local and international
food. Eclectic shops offering curios, antique furniture, art, carpets, all with
a unique Asian touch can be found here.
Stop for tea at the Katong Laksa eatery. A must try for those with a craving
