It’s the second time this week where I have found myself asking, ” Why have I never heard of this before?” Haw Par Villa in Singapore is one of the weirdest, most incredible theme parks. I am a huge sucker for the art of the diorama so sign me right up for life-sized ones depicting Ten Levels of hell and other mythology, folklore and moral lessons.

Haw Par Villa was named after two brothers Aw boon Haw and Aw Boon Par who were also the creators of world-famous Tiger Balm. Originally the park was made as an instrument for teaching traditional Chinese values then went through several changes before it became the glory of what it is today.

A terrifying place to bring your kids and show them what will happen if you do not follow certain rules. So basic fun for the entire family.


This video has no sound but really shows the park and all its wonders.
