The Fish-Tailed lion, a symbol of the Singapore Tourism Bureau, first appeared in 1964. The fish-body statue of the Fish-Tailed lion on the top of the waves soon became a symbol of Singapore. Every year, tourists from all over the world visit Merlion Park in Singapore to take pictures with Merlion. The design inspiration of the Merlion statue comes from the record of Malay Chronicle. In the 14th century AD, an Indonesian prince in a huge harbor encountered a storm boat drifting to this point. As soon as he landed, he saw a magical beast and his entourage told him that it was a lion. So he named the island Lion City. As for the fish tail sculpture of the statue, swimming between the waves represents not only the characteristics of Singapore from a fishing port to a commercial port, but also the ancestors of our hard-working ancestors who came to the south to survive. Fishtail Lion Park Fishtail Lion and Little Fishtail Lion originally stand beside the coastal bridge Fishtail Lion Park, is a very popular tourist attraction. On September 15, 1972, the former Prime Minister of Singapore, Mr. Lee Kuan Yew, opened the ribbon-cutting ceremony for him. Today's Merlion statue has been relocated to 120 places away from its original site, adjacent to Fulton 1. The statue of a merlion, 8.6 meters high and weighing 70 tons, was made of concrete by the late famous Singapore sculptor, Mr. Lin Langxin. Another small Fish-Tailed lion statue, 2 meters high and 3 tons heavy, is also Mr. Lin's work. The body is made of concrete, covered with ceramic scales, and the eyes are small red teacups. According to this record, Mr. Fraser Brunner designed the statue of the Merlion. The lion's head symbolizes the lion, while the fish's tail symbolizes the ancient city of Temasek. The theme of the Merlion is water, with lighting effect, creating a vivid and spectacular visual effect of the Merlion floating on the blue wave. The open space around can be used for various outdoor performances. The steps connecting the Merlion and the bleachers not only allow visitors to get close to the water, but also allow them to sit on the terraces. The stand can accommodate 300 people. Standing in the stands, visitors can take a picture with the Merlion from the front against the background of the outline of the financial center buildings in the urban areas such as Fulton Hotel and the silhouette of the seaside park. The small Merlion sits in a unique pool 28 meters behind the merlion. It also echoes the Merlion and sprays water from its mouth.
