The first time I visited Seletar Aerospace Park was in the golden ages i.e. before the Covid-19 pandemic 😆 My twins were on the brink of turning five at the time and they were the reason I had come across the place during my search for the next family fun outing venue.
 
For the uninitiated, Seletar Aerospace Park (SAP) is an increasingly popular family and lifestyle destination in Singapore. This industrial enclave catering to aerospace industries is tucked away in the idyllic Seletar area. This place is one of Singapore's better kept secrets! 

Seletar Aerospace Park has an eclectic mix of F&B outlets, retail outlets and frequently plays host to bazaars, carnivals and outdoor movie screenings. It is popular with young families because of an aerospace-themed playground nestled within its premises. It has also been attracting nature enthusiasts and photographers for its thriving biodiversity, boardwalks and nature trails that collectively form the Hampstead Wetland Park. 

SAP is a nod to Singapore’s colonial past. The area served as a pre-World War II military base for the British Royal Air Force in the 1920s. In order to house RAF personnel and their families, numerous quaint black and white bungalows were built with the help of female immigrants. With old trees and open fields, this part of Singapore has retained its old world charm. 

Today, Seletar Airport operates as a general aviation airport for chartered flights and training purposes. Of the former colonial bungalows, 32 have been refurbished as part of the charming cluster that is known as 'The Oval at Seletar Aerospace Park'. The Oval is a rustic lifestyle hub and recreational destination for both the working community and residents of the north-east region.
