โ โ โ โ โ Probably the only shop left in Singapore that still makes effigies (statues). Since the old days, Chinese temples and homes would commission or buy effigies from this shop. The shop is now also open to workshops to know more about the art of carving kimsin (the Hokkien term for the effigy). To know more about local Chinese customs and beliefs, this is one of the great places to visit.

โ โ โ โ โ Attended "Where Gods Are Born" tour today conducted by May Hui. It is so interesting and insightful.
To be frank, being a free thinker, I have bare knowledge about the stories of deities and demons other than Journey to the West because I have seen so many drama serials and movies on this famous folklore.
But this tour is really an eye-opener. Say Tian Hng, a shop of more than 100 years old and probably the last shop in Sg which is still making effigies has so much history and stories to share.
The workmanship is very remarkable and the owner is very friendly and willing to share. Would highly recommend everyone to pop by this shop to check out what it has to offer.
Say Tian Hng, a truly Make Passion Possible brand ?

โ โ โ โ โ I attended the workshop conducted by May with an open mind. I was intrigued by the stories she illustrated with photos and effigies, and am particularly impressed with her storytelling techniques. It was a lively and interactive workshop, a great way to spend the afternoon and learning much about the trade and going away with facts & knowledge that are unforgettable. The friendly shop owner was game enough to take photos with us :) I highly recommend this heritage workshop!
