Rating - 7.5/10
This Chinese culture theme park was slated to be one of Singapore’s 🇸🇬 major tourist attractions back in the day, though these days it is more of a nostalgic curiosity and is somewhat shabby and mostly forgotten. Haw Par Villa is still home to some of the weirdest sculptures I’ve seen though, and worth a visit if you like quirky attractions without a crowd (and also… free!).😀
Haw Par Villa isn’t very big – you can easily explore it in 1-2 hours.
THE 10 COURTS OF HELL.
The most famous section of Haw Par Villa that any one who has ever visited it back in the day is the 10 Courts of Hell, an idea rooted in the Buddhist belief that you reap what you sow. Basically the belief is that all your sins in life are punishable in death, and the worst your sin, the more epically gory your torture will be.
To end this, I took about 2 hours to circle the park without a tour, it’s a little hilly so be prepared to walk a bit. Also, no air-conditioning so consider a paper fan or a hat 👒 to stay cool – there are benches here and there to sit down.

It is a very beautiful place, shady. There are statues on display about teachings and religions, very beautiful, free entry as well, next to the train station, convenient to travel.
Tiger Panther Villa is a famous tourist attraction in Singapore. Hong Kong also has Tiger Panther Villa Wanjin Oil Garden, but the two places are different. There is also a Hell Museum, but there is an additional charge.
The Hubao Villa is quite large in space. The area of the whole area is also very unique. There are a lot of facilities around the villa. The visit to the whole area is also very convenient. The villa building method is also very special. It is a very unique independent area.
nice park for walk. try to do it in the evening time to avoid the sun. a bit of hiking is involved.
Tiger Leopard Villa is precisely a private residential garden area, built by Hu Wenbao and Hu Wenhu brothers, the founder of Singaporean Chinese Wanjinyou, and an educational park area. Along the main road, there are sculptures and paintings of characters in traditional Chinese novels and myths, feudal tablets, travels to the west, Eight Immortals crossing the sea, foolish Gong moving mountains, white snake biography and Meng Po Tang, which promote China. Traditional virtues, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and belief, and the basic moral cultivation of life in fact, these ancient Chinese cultures and myths are also deeply rooted in the hearts of some Chinese and Southeast Asian people. Friends are authentic Singaporeans who know more about them than I do. They will also use these historical myths to illustrate the truth when they read books. It is very valuable to educate students to be human beings here. Eighteen levels of hell must go in to play, ghosts and ghosts are in it, as well as all kinds of retribution and torture that will happen if you do evil things are shown in the form of sculpture or flexibility, warning people to do more good things before they die.
One of the last of its kind. Hope they continue to restore the statues and exhibits. they are already worn out. Nice to know about some of chinese history and fables.
Amazing Sceneries. Feel satisfied
