Chinatown

A story of Chinese heritage Following Singapore's founding, migrants looking to make their fortune in Singapore began arriving in droves. Life was not easy back then for anyone on the street and home often meant nothing more than a wooden board as a bed. Fresh water had to be carted in by bullock-drawn carts, the practice of which contributed to Chinatown's other name - Niu Che Shui, known as Bullock-Cart-Water.
Over the years, Chinatown has changed and evolved, but it is filled with traces of our beloved enclave of culture and tradition, defined by the very people who live, work and play on the streets of Chinatown.

Merlion Park

Catch a glimpse of Singapore’s most majestic icon, the Merlion, a mythical creature that’s half-fish and half-lion. The Merlion combines two elements of Singapore’s identity—its body symbolises the fishing villages of Singapore’s past, while its lion head is a symbol of Singapura (“lion city” in Sanskrit). Today, you can glimpse this legend at Merlion Park. Spouting water from its mouth, the Merlion statue stands tall at 8.6 metres and weighs 70 tonnes.
This icon is a ‘must-see’ for tourists visiting Singapore, similar to other significant landmarks around the world.
