This photograph taken on August 2, 2012 shows the "Monkey Tree", which has attracted a following due to the likeness of a monkey on its bark, which believers say resembles that of a deity from Chinese mythology with an altar placed in front of it in a western suburb of Singapore. The tree, located around a public housing estate, drew so much attention at one point that authorities had to explain to a local newspaper that the visage was a" natural" response by the tree to various "minor accidents over the years."

SINGAPORE: Whenever Christina Tang is overseas and returns to her hotel room, she always knocks on the door before entering even if she is the only occupant.
The 25-year-old Singaporean marketing executive said knocking on the door is meant to seek permission from the "good brothers" - spirits that might have taken over her room while she was away - for her to stay over for the night.
