Summary

Description
English: Prostitutes boiled in menstrual blood. Ten Courts of Hell.

Haw Par Villa is a huge array of colourful concrete statues that show Chinese mythology and values. It was built in the 1930's by Chinese businessman Aw Boon Haw, whose marketing genius was responsible for a fortune built on selling Tiger Balm. The garden is a wonderful combination of whimsy and violence and colour and artistry.

The Ten Courts of Hell show the consequences of earthly acts in the next realm. There are specific punishments for different offences.

Reproduction of the subject(s) of this photograph or other type of file made on or after 10 April 1987 is permitted under Singapore law (Copyright Act 2021 (Act 22 of 2021)).

Section 265 of the Copyright Act states that it is permitted to make or publish a painting, drawing, engraving, or photograph of the following: building, model of building; sculpture situated "other than temporarily in a public place or premises open to the public," or work of artistic craftsmanship. The section also allows the inclusion of the said works in a film, television broadcast, or cable programme.

The definition of a work of artistic craftsmanship in Section 20(1) means it does not include a painting, drawing, engraving, or photograph. Therefore, the Singaporean freedom of panorama does not apply to, among other things, two-dimensional works such as billboards, murals, paintings in art galleries and museums, posters, and signs.
