I just... I just don't know what to say. Come here. Drink some wine first. Drink a bit more afterwards, too. You're about to see medic rabbits eating each other while a dude surfs a turtle .

Must go here.. A Singapore original theme park , recently reno after many years. Most Singaporean parents bring their children here, which that fact in itself is very informative of Singapore culture.

Cool place to see strange statues and take time to read up the interesting stories of each scene. Totally opened air place so it gets really hot though!

Edmund Boey

I was terrified of this theme park when I visited as a child, and I'm visiting today 20 years later and I'm still terrified! I've got to say it's full of nostalgia & south east Asian Chinese culture.

Jerrald Ng

A park with over 1000 statues depicted from Chinese myth and folklore. Best time to visit is in the morning - Can get really hot in the afternoon as it's outdoor. Note: Can be a bit creepy at night.

Pol Gomà Deàs

One of the most unique places to visit while in Singapore. Bizzarre, interesting and amusing. Ah, and 100% for free!

Jess Thia

WestWay mall is opposite Haw Par Villa MRT station with reasonably-priced eateries in a not-so-strong aircon place located at 27 West Coast Highway Viaduct.

Amber Zhao

Gotta say this is the ugliest architecture I’ve ever seen in my entire life! Too mixed style and poor details. And what’s that Statue of Liberty doing by the lotus pound???

Claudia Ronshausen

Good place to immerse yourself in the world of Chinese mythology and legends. Entry is free, and it might look a bit rundown but it adds to the mythical atmosphere. Don't miss the '10 Levels of Hell'.

Brandon Schmittling

Enter the minds of the eccentric millionaire developers of Tiger Balm. The Ten Courts of Hell is what I imagine would happen if Prince Tuesday went Caligula on the Neighborhood of Make-Believe.

Jess Thia

A place to la-kopi at Old Nanyang Coffee shop at WestWay mall , located opposite Haw Par Villa MRT station.

Eu Gene Ng

Visit this place for a journey to the Past. It looks a bit run-down, but some will love that. I'll recommend the Court of Ten Hells, its educational .

Annie Hibberd

Crazy, weird place to visit! Explains a lot about Chinese mythology and stories to teach people morals.

Connie ????

Depicts the ancient history and others chinese legend. A good place to hang out if you haven't been here.

Mariana Campelo

Interesting and unique. One of a kind in Singapore.

Emily Koo

I am saddened to see that the place is rather dilapidated and rundown; a shadow of its former glory. No entry fees. A $5 charge for parking per entry. Bring own snacks and drinks; no F&B outlets.
