The Mural at Lau Pa Sat at Boon Tat Street, painted in Feb 2024. This mural marks the 200th year of the establishment of the ‘Old Market’, and the 130th year of the building now known as Lau Pa Sat. From a fish market by the sea, it has evolved into an iconic day and night hawker market in the middle of Singapore’s business district, all which sit on reclaimed land.
