Visited the iconic S

Visited the iconic Singapore’s national icon the Merlion with the head of a lion and the body of a fish. According to a story, Merlion's body symbolizes Singapore's humble beginnings as a fishing village when it was called Temasek in Malay which comes from the same root as the word tasek means lake. Its head represents Singapore’s original name, Singapura, or lion city. Today, you can glimpse this legend at Merlion Park. Spouting water from its mouth. It is a must visit for tourists visiting Singapore similar to other significant landmarks around the world. You can do different styles of capturing this mythical icon. Also, the park has a smaller Merlion statue known as the Merlion cub. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #lightthecity #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel#lightthecity
