The Merlion Park is where visitors can admire Singapore’s iconic Merlion–a must-see for tourists visiting the island. The water-spouting Merlion has a body of a fish, symbolising Singapore’s humble beginnings as a fishing village, while its lion head symbolises Singapore’s original name, Singapura, or ‘lion city’ in Malay.

It was built by local craftsman, Lim Nang Seng, and was unveiled on 15 September 1972 by then Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew at the mouth of the Singapore River, to welcome all visitors to Singapore.

Built across the Marina Channel, the Marina Barrage is Singapore’s 15th reservoir. It acts as a flood control measure for low-lying parts of the city centre by keeping out the tidal influence. Its stable water surface makes it an ideal venue for water and recreational activities and visitors can also enjoy a picnic and kite flying against the stunning city skyline at the barrage’s Green Roof.

It is a showpiece of environmental sustainability where green principles are applied in the design, construction and operation of the barrage. Pay a visit to the Sustainable Singapore Gallery (SSG), housed in Marina Barrage, to learn about Singapore’s sustainability measures.
