Merlion Park is one of Singapore’s most iconic landmarks, located near Marina Bay. The park is home to the Merlion Statue, a mythical creature with the head of a lion and the body of a fish, symbolizing Singapore’s origins as a fishing village and its lion-hearted history. The statue stands at 8.6 meters tall and spouts water from its mouth, offering a perfect photo opportunity with the stunning Marina Bay Sands and the Singapore skyline in the background.
The park is a popular spot for both locals and tourists, offering scenic views of the bay and a relaxing atmosphere for visitors. It’s a great place to stroll, take photos, and enjoy the beauty of the city’s waterfront. Merlion Park is easily accessible by Bus No. 100, 107, 130, and 133, and is just a short walk from Raffles Place MRT Station (East-West Line and North-South Line).
