The Singapore Merlion


imaginary creature with the head of a lion and the body of a fish
used as a mascot of Singapore
designed by Fraser Brunner, for the logo of the Singapore Tourism Board (STB)
The lion head represents Singapore's original name — Singapura — meaning "lion city"
One of the most recognizable artwork in the world
Apparently, you've never been to Singapore if you have not taken a picture with this icon
