Walk with our ancestors: intrigued by the ancient practice of Feng Shui or geomancy? Discover why it's still very much alive in cosmopolitan Singapore.
Our first stop takes us to a Hakka Cemetery. Built in the 1800s, it demonstrates how the ancient Chinese had believed in the importance of giving their ancestors a proper final resting place. It was considered the highest form of filial piety which would affect their destiny and ensure continued blessings for future generations.
Moving to bustling Orchard Road, we learn about its Feng Shui related buildings and how the previous Teochew cemetery hill is believed to be the land of seven falling stars. Explore an amazing monastery in Toa Payoh and see the semi-circular pond with Nine Water Dragon sprouting "Shui" or water to deflect "Sha Qi" or negative energy from Nearly Highway.
Finally, we stop at Singapore's most iconic Building-Marina Bay Sands. Believed to be the hub of prosperity, its many landmarks have been designed to enhance the vibrancy of the new Marina Bay financial district. From the imposing three towers to the oculus at the promenade, learn how these landmarks have been strategically placed to harness the "Qi" or positive energy from the Marina Bay.
