Our second to last day of Singapore was spent visiting the slightly demented theme park, Haw Par Vila. This free park was opened by the brothers who created Tiger Balm to explain Confucius and Chinese Mythology. There were several terraces of Gods and myths explained complete with hand painted life size dioramas, but really it was the 10 Courts of Hell that was the most fun! I swear I am not a psychopath!
(But really . . . rethink showing this one to the kiddios)
The grand entranceway to the theme park Haw Par Villa . . . lots of tiger figurines around.
The park starts off looking enchanting.
And there's even such vegan friendly parables like this one: man frees a turtle he buys from the market and years later the turtle saves his life when his boat sinks. (Vegans 1 - Meat Eaters - 0)
Not sure the parable here but it made for a good picture opt!
This was the 2nd tiger head car that was actually owned and used by the Tiger Balm brothers. Take that Fifty and your "Pimp My Ride".
At least Hell is easy to find!
There were plenty of graphic warnings. . . let this be one for you too before you scroll down!!!
Let the journey to hell and back begin!!!!
Hell-O-Fortune - Try and match the picture of the punishment with the crime above!
If you look closely you can see me in the back on the Golden Bridge to paradise. Suckas!

I think after viewing those pictures you all deserve a cup of home girl's magic tea!
We all know where the vegans are on this wheel of reincarnation! (Vegans -2, Meat Eaters-0)
