Walk around Merlion(26/01/2013)

It was a Saturday evening; just wanted go out. So we decided to walk around Merlion (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merlion).

An excerpt from wiki:
.The Merlion is a mythical creature with the head of a lion and the body of a fish, used as a mascot and national personification of Singapore. Its name combines "mer" meaning the sea and "lion". The fish body represents Singapore's origin as a fishing village when it was called Temasek, which means "sea town" in Javanese. The lion head represents Singapore's original name — Singapura — meaning "lion city" or "kota singa"

The Mer-Lion


 It's actually surrounded by many beautiful buildings and you get a nice view of Singapore skyline from merlion. I'm not gonna wirte much about it. but i'm sure there are lots of treat for eyes if you visit.
