Stone Beasts of Haw Par Villa

#singaporeguide

At Haw Par Villa, the stone animals scattered across the park bring a playful yet symbolic energy to the grounds. Tigers, lions, elephants, and mythical creatures stand frozen mid-motion, their carved details capturing strength, wisdom, and protection. Through my lens, each statue felt alive, the fierce expressions, textured surfaces, and dramatic poses telling stories beyond their stillness. Some radiate power, others a quiet guardianship, making every corner a surprise. Photographing them was like documenting a hidden zoo of legends, where stone creatures embody timeless lessons and add character to the villa’s surreal landscape.
