Singapore statues


 
Haw Par Villa-Dragon World: A scene from the tale of "The Battle of the Yellow River"
 
Received this card for the One Postcard from One Country #6 swap, where each member that signs up for the swap gets 10 names to send cards to. Love the stamp series called "Vanishing Trades". Malaysia released a similar series called "Traditional Livelihood".
Thanks Janet for this awesome card! the moment I saw this instantly the clang of Chinese opera music just floated into my head :D I love Chinese cultural cards because I'm such a "Banana", a term that Malaysian/Singaporean Chinese use for a Chinese person who doesn't know the Chinese culture much less speak Mandarin >.<
