Haw Par Villa - Interesting stories about the statues

Besides viewing all the statues, was nice to read some interesting stories behind the statues.

Haw Par Villa - Opera Masks

Right inside the park were three very huge opera masks. Am glad they maintained the park and the statues. Remember seeing these huge masks when I was young. Replica of the nine dragons found in Beijing Forbidden City.

Skywatch Friday - Haw Par Villa - Buddha Statues

I love taking photos of the different types of buddha statues in the park. Am not familar with the names of the different buddha but I think the above photo is that of the smiling buddha. Not only do the buddha have different names but the way the buddha posed are just as important. To learn more about the meaning of the poses you can view from here For other sky watchers, please hop over to Skywatch Blog

Haw Par Villa - Statues of foreign countries

The Thai Dancer at the entrance of the park was about 3 metres tall. These two sumo wrestlers had a place in the park too and between them were replicas of the Tiger Balm Ointment. Even Statue of Liberty found her way to Haw Par Villa too. These statues were already very famous in their respective countries. The founders of the park were nice to share these educational features in the park with society.
