Istana Woodneuk

 ISTANA WOODNEUK

Went to Istana Woodneuk on 31st March 2015;
for our Image Narration final project.
The place itself is simply stunning and breathtaking
Surprisingly it took us around half an hour to get there
 
The direction was pretty straightforward
But the pathway was indeed steep and abrupt
 It wasn't that creepy as I expected
Quite a number of photographers were there too
Oh and brace yourself for the army of mosquitoes

Brief history

Easily one of Singapore’s largest private residences in the late 19th century and early 20th century, Istana Woodneuk was one of the two royal palaces owned by Johor Sultan Abu Bakar ibni Daing Ibrahim (1833-1895), 21st Sultan of Johor.
 
It was built for the Sultan’s fourth wife, Sultana Khadijah. The blue-roof palace was just as magnificent, consisting of the main building with two smaller houses by its side, possibly for the accommodation of servants or horses.
 
Istana Woodneuk’s owner Sultana Khadjah died in this grand house in 1904.
The dilapidated house as well as the land still belong to the royal family of Johor.
