Haw Par Villa has to be one of the few true fascinating actual historic heritage locations left in SG, that’s a great tourist spot that’s not a modern spot purposely made for tourists. It has a great back story of how the Haw older brother bought his younger brother a actual Villa, which is no longer there, it’s now an empty spot that kinda looks like a very tiny amphitheater. And then also build all the dioramas to uphold Chinese culture as a way of giving back to the public. There was another similar place in Hong Kong which I’m not sure if it’s still there. This place was meant to share Chinese mythologies, religion, culture and values. Some are derived from idioms or sayings. The other lesser known part are the various country elements. Since this was made before easy travel and zoos and museums, Haw brother brought foreign countries’ cultures and animals to the public in the form of these statues. That’s why there are pandas, ostriches, Thai dancers which you saw near the entrance, not Kung fu, sumo wrestlers and even the Statue of Liberty. But over the years the place has changed so many different management some things have been moved around. Some would even remember in the 90s there was giant dragon over the levels of hell, that was not an original part of the park which is why the style was slightly different from the rest. It used to be called Dragon World and was a legit theme park back then, but it didn’t last that long and was then returned to the Singapore Tourism Board. The levels of hell even had a boat ride which you could not leave half way even if you wanted to. Scarred me shitless as a kid. But these days, I think few families really bring their kids there.

It's one of the Confucian 二十四孝 (24 Filial Pieties) called 乳姑不怠 ("Nursing mother-in-law without fail"), about a story from Tang official Cui Shannan's childhood. His great grandmother Grand Dame Tang was dysphagic, so his grandmother Lady Tang (when younger) would diligently nurse her after waking up before attending to him (as a baby). On her deathbed, she thanked Lady Tang's kindness & asked Cui to teach the same filial devotion to his descendants.

The builders of this place, Aw Boon Haw and Aw Boon Par, were ethnically Chinese but born and raised in Burma (now called Myanmar) back when both Singapore and Burma were under British colonial rule. You can find similar gardens in Hong Kong and China as well, along with traces of their family's influence in business, philanthropy and charity in other places like Myanmar. You can still find their descendants today spread all over the world but they've mostly lost all of their connections to the Haw Par businesses and their fortune along with it. The Aw family and the Haw Par businesses are quite a lot to read about on their own.

It was the only theme park in Singaporeat the time, like having our own Disneyland, so it was popular for a while, but people didn't go back. Partly because it was the same thing, and partly because it was expensive. After they removed all the rides, it was free to enter. Also, because it's rather secluded, it was rumored to be haunted!

Hey, as a Singaporean Chinese, my dad used to take me to this place. Before they revamped the park, it used to be a water ride instead of walking a path "Courts of Hell exhibit". Then I think they ran out of money and after the revamp, the water was removed and a concrete pathway was constructed. Imagine being an 8-10 year old kid being shown these images of hell, it spooked the 'hell' out of me. Nevertheless, back when Singapore was still developing, stability of the country was paramount so I guess during those early days, moral values were highly 'drilled' into you. Lee Kuan Yew couldn't have citizens committing all sorts of crime and such so I guess, it serve as a kind of 'twisted' moral compass for early days Singapore. Remember during the early days of Singapore's history, there was still the treat of communism. China was also still developing and slowly 'opening up'. Civil rights for blacks in the US was also still a 'novel thing'. The world if you can put it, was still picking up the pieces after world war 2 ended. Many nations were still developing economies.

The video minds me of Haw Par Villa in Hong Kong. It’s built by the same person.
