Haw Par Villa - Chinese Mythology

Singapore's Haw Par Villa was built in 1937 by Tiger Balm King, Aw Boon Haw who is a Burmese. It was destroyed in World WarII but he rebuilt it from 1950 to 1959 and was known as Tiger Balm Garden. There are some gardens in Singapore beside Botanic Garden, but Haw Par Villa is more telling about the Chinese Ancient Mythology. It is located around Pasir Panjang Road. Although I have been staying here for more than 5 years, but this is a first time to visit this place.
