Visiting Singapore's Mascot @ Merlion

#singapore #landmark Of course, if you haven't experienced the Merlion, you haven't really visited Singapore. The Merlion, the city-state's most iconic sculpture, serves as the official mascot of Singapore, and every visitor to the city should make it a point to explore this historic landmark. The Merlion is a sculpture with the head of a lion, representing the original name of Singapore, Singapura, meaning 'lion,' and a body of a fish, symbolizing the city's roots as a fishing village. This mythical creature, with water spouting from its mouth like a fountain, is both unique and beautiful. The Merlion Park attracts a lot of visitors eager to capture photos with this famous symbol of Singapore. During our visit, we found ourselves patiently waiting for the perfect spot and angle amidst the heat. However, the wait was undoubtedly worth it. After all, can one truly leave Singapore without immortalizing their experience with the nation's beloved mascot? (You can also get a view of Marina Bay Sands from this spot as well. Don't miss it.) Tip: Make sure you bring some water to prevent dehydration.
