Many of you had heard of mermaid before but not a merlion. A merlion is a combination of the lion head and the tail of the fish. I personally like the original Merlion located right next to the Singapore River rather than the taller replica in Sentosa Island. Many different angles can be seen in the photos as the Singapore Opera House right next to it and the Fullerton Hotel (former General Post Office) as a background.
You will probably gonna like this original of the Merlion, better than the taller replica in Sentosa Island... And there is a high chance that you'll probably overlook a even smaller version of the Merlion just located in front of the original, if you are planning to go there at night.

For Singapore, it would be the Merlion and the Esplanade Theaters. Singapore Merlion - The merlion is a statue with the head of a lion and the body of a fish. Its name comes from a portmanteau of mermaid and lion. The merlion was designed by Fraser Brunner for the Singapore Tourism… Singapore Icons |

As we were walking along the Singapore River to get to the Merlion Park, we saw some of the many sculptures surrounding it, which are called, well, "People of the River Sculptures". I loved the one of the kids jumping into the river :)
The Merlion was originally designed as the emblem of the Singapore Tourism… Shopping, Merlion Park |

Once at Sentosa island I rode the train around the island and stopped off at the beach and visited the Merlion. You can enter inside the merlion for a small fee.
Having thought this was the only Merlion in Singapore I later discovered the real Merlion was located by the Bay.
I ventured down to Clark Quay in the evening and enjoyed the food… Singapore 2001 |

Merlion Park . We got up close with the Mother Merlion and baby Merlion and did the SG tourist clichés! A trip to Singapore isn’t complete without a river cruise at Clarke Quay so we hopped on with the HiPPO River Cruise… Singapore Clichés |
