4D3N Singapore | Travel with Dad!!

👍Highly recommended: The waterfall at the airport is a great photo spot! We happened to fly from T1, just a few minutes' walk away. 🚉Transportation tips: I have no sense of direction, so I stayed on Orchard Road and walked around the area. The streets are super clean, not too hot, and very comfortable. We took a taxi to Marina Bay Sands and the Merlion, and it wasn't very expensive. About SGD 10. 🧳Pre-trip preparation: Sunscreen, a jacket for air-conditioned places, and comfortable shoes. ❤Recommended reason: Great for families. ✅Must-try: Marina Bay Sands is worth a visit, with many exhibitions. Orchard Road is also interesting, with Nanyang-style shophouses. Many have a history of over 100 years. We had breakfast at Killiney. The egg toast is delicious. 😋

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.

Merlion

Good morning, Singapore! On the second day in Lion City, the weather is still clear, the indoor air conditioning is strong, the outdoor is hot and humid, it seems like having a sauna every day, and the body is sticky. This morning, the first stop is directly to Singapore's NO 1 landmark, the "Merlion" park. Someone once said: If you haven't been to the Merlion, you haven't been to Singapore. Yesterday I took pictures from the top of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel, and today I am taking pictures from here.

Merlion, the Landmark of Singapore.

The Merlion is essentially a welcoming symbol for visitors to Singapore. The iconic statue of a lion with water spouting from its mouth into the lake is a familiar sight. It's a must-visit landmark for all tourists. It's recommended to visit in the morning or evening when the weather is pleasant. The Merlion was designed as a symbol for the Singapore Tourism Board in 1964. The statue features a lion's head and a fish's body, standing atop waves, and is considered very beautiful.

FIRST TRIP IN 5YEARS!!

This was my first oversea trip after 5 years. I went to Singapore and it was the best! Met up with a couple of friends, met some new friends along my trip and had all the nice foods in singapore! The price at hawker stalls are actually very reasonable and affordable! Sadly didn’t have the time to visit universal studio. Hopefully I get to visit there during my next trip to Singapore! #singapore

Esplanade Park

#gardencityexploration #100waysoftravel The park is very large and fun. There is an ice cream shop with thick tawr bread and there are a few drink vendors in little huts. It is a nice walk under the trees. Enjoy the nature and the flowers. Check out the new buildings, like the Merlion and the Sky Bridge, but also take the time to wander around and see the old Parliament and government buildings. Plus some historical buildings! You can see the Anderson Bridge and back over the Cavenaugh Bridge. Cool! Very clean!

Beautiful view of merlion 🇸🇬

#pictureforperfectsingapore 6 hours to transfer to Singapore The third time I was transiting in Singapore, I landed at 6:30 a.m. and transferred for 6 hours. Because I didn't sleep all night, I decided to go out after struggling for a while. It's still very convenient to go out of Changi Airport T2 and take a bus directly to Merlion Park. The return trip is the same bus. I specially got off at T1 and went to see the waterfall of Xingyao Lemon Yi. The transit time was too short before, but I happened to have a train.

The iconic Merlion

#traveldiaries Finally got to see the famous Merlion! The place has amazing view. Visiting early morning or late evening would be good. The lights in the night are beautiful. The place is mostly crowded and wearing comfortable shoes is recommended. There was an upcoming event later that week when we visited so the train stations and bus tops close to the place were closed. We got lost and almost missed our flight, but we still managed.

Start your Singapore journey: A treasure guide to Merlion Park.

1. Introduction to the Park Merlion Park is located on the banks of the Singapore River and is one of Singapore's iconic attractions. The Merlion statue is 8.6 meters high and is a symbol of Singapore. 2. Preparations • Clothing • Singapore's climate is hot and humid, so prepare light, breathable, and sweat-absorbent clothing, such as shorts, short-sleeved T-shirts, and short skirts. • Bring a light jacket, as the air conditioning in indoor areas and public transportation may be quite cold. • Shoes • Comfortable walking shoes are a must, as you may need to walk around the park and surrounding areas. • You can also prepare a pair of sandals, which are convenient for taking photos by the water or for leisurely strolling. • Other items • Bring light rain gear, as there may be showers in Singapore. • Prepare a light backpack to carry water, a camera, sunscreen, and other items. 3. Transportation • Subway • Take the subway to Raffles Place Station. After exiting the station, follow the signs along the way and walk for about 5-10 minutes to reach Merlion Park. • Bus • Take the bus to a nearby stop, then walk to the park. You can use Singapore's bus card, which is convenient for swiping when getting on and off the bus. • Taxi/Ride-hailing • Tell the driver to go directly to Merlion Park, but there may be congestion during peak traffic hours. 4. Best Time to Visit • Early morning (6:00-9:00) • The sunlight is relatively soft at this time, and there are relatively few tourists. You can take photos in front of the Merlion statue, enjoy the tranquil scenery of the Singapore River, and feel the fresh air. • Evening (17:00-19:00) • You can watch the beautiful sunset. As the sun sets, the color of the sky changes constantly, providing an excellent background for photos. At the same time, the lights of the surrounding buildings gradually light up, creating a romantic and unique atmosphere. 5. Highlights • Take a photo with the Merlion statue • This is one of the main activities of visiting Merlion Park. You can stand at different angles to take photos with the Merlion statue. For example, standing in front of the Merlion, you can take a photo of the entire statue; standing on the side, you can capture the moment when the Merlion spouts water. • Try some creative photo poses, such as making the action of the Merlion spouting water, or "kissing" the Merlion. • Enjoy the surrounding scenery • From Merlion Park, you can enjoy the beauty of Marina Bay, including iconic buildings such as Marina Bay Sands. • Stroll along the Singapore River, enjoy the modern buildings and lush green plants on both sides of the river, and feel the harmony of Singapore's city and nature. 6. Recommended Food Nearby • Song Fa Bak Kut Teh (Clarke Quay Store) • Not far from Merlion Park, Bak Kut Teh is one of Singapore's specialty dishes. Song Fa Bak Kut Teh has a rich soup base, and the medicinal flavor and meaty aroma are perfectly blended. The ribs are stewed until they are tender and flavorful. • Jumbo Seafood (Riverside Point Store) • Famous for seafood dishes such as chili crab. The crab meat is fresh and tender, and it is served with a special chili sauce. The taste is rich and memorable. 7. Shopping Recommendations • Raffles City Shopping Centre • Located near Raffles Place, it is a large shopping center with many international and local brands, ranging from fashion clothing to household items, from cosmetics to electronic products. • You can buy some Singaporean souvenirs here, such as Merlion-shaped keychains and refrigerator magnets.

Merlion Park, a must-see attraction when visiting Singapore

#ArchitectureVisit When thinking of the symbol of Singapore, I believe that everyone will think of Merlion first. And Merlion Park is a check-in point that tourists who come to Singapore must visit. How to get to Merlion Park by MRT Take the green or red line and get off at Raffles Place, then follow the signs to the Fullerton Hotel and then cross the street to the opposite side and you will arrive. Merlion is free to enter. The day we went, the weather was good, no rain, and there were a lot of tourists as usual. You may have to wait in line for a photo spot. In addition to taking a photo with Merlion, don't forget to take a photo with Marina Bay Sands on the opposite side.

🇸🇬 Merlion

The Merlion is one of Singapore's most famous landmarks and a significant symbol of the city. It is a mythical creature with the head of a lion and the body of a fish, representing Singapore's history and origins. The statue stands at 8.6 meters tall and weighs 70 tons, spouting water from its mouth into Marina Bay. Merlion Park is situated at One Fullerton, near the Central Business District. It's easily accessible by public transport, with the nearest MRT station being Raffles Place. The park is open 24 hours a day, and there is no entry fee, making it an accessible and convenient destination for all visitors. #travelanywhere #singapore #landmark #merlion #tripblazers

Hotels require a credit card pre-authorization or a 100S$ deposit for check-in. The pre-authorization and refund of the deposit are processed quickly upon check-out, so don't worry. Gardens by the Bay's Supertree Grove has a music and light show at 19:45 and 20:30. For photos at Fort Canning Park's spiral staircase, go early and queue orderly. The National Gallery Singapore is a comfortable visit, recommended. Use Yodao to translate photo descriptions smoothly. The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple has an elevator directly to the top-floor garden, then you can visit each floor; knee-length attire is required, aprons are provided at the entrance if needed. Sultan Mosque is also worth visiting, with a grand hall and shoe removal at the entrance. For the Night Safari, buy tickets and Chinese tram tickets in advance; there are four walking trails, and animals are active during the evening feedings. Both the S.E.A. Aquarium and Universal Studios are fun; the aquarium is less crowded in the afternoon and closes at 17:00, but you can tour freely inside. On weekdays, the theme park is not crowded, and you can check ride wait times and show schedules with the Universal SG app, allowing you to experience everything in one day. Staying on Sentosa Island, you can enjoy three beaches, feel the sand and sea breeze, and take the aerial cable car system for a panoramic view of the city's night scene. Various food courts, Maxwell Food Centre's Lao Ban Soya Beancurd and Hainanese Chicken Rice, Tang City Food Court, Toast Box, Ya Kun Kaya Toast, Song Fa Bak Kut Teh, and the traditional Nonya kueh at Granny's Secret in VivoCity are very delicious and affordable.

Singapore's National Icon

The mythical Merlion is Singapore's national icon. It possesses the body of a fish and the head of a lion. Spouting water from its mouth, the Merlion statue stands at 8.6 metres and weighs 70 tonnes. Originally located at the mouth of the Singapore River, it was built by local craftsman Lim Nang Seng, designed by Kwan Sai Kheong, and unveiled on 15 September 1972 by then-Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew. With the completion of Esplanade Bridge in 1997, the statue could no longer be viewed clearly from the waterfront and was relocated to the Merlion Park, which stands in front of Fullerton Hotel and overlooking Marina Bay. #singaporetrip
