The Singapore Merlion is a important symbol of Singapore. It had become a tourist attraction to visit the Merlion whenever they come to Singapore. The Merlion was designed by Mr Fraser Brunner, a member of the souvenir committee and a curator of the Van Kleef Aquarium in 1964. He initially designed the Merlion because he wanted Singapore to have something that symbolises it. The Merlion is a fictional creature that has a lion head and a fish body. The Lion head is supposed to signify the event of Sang Nila Utama finding Singapore and founding it into a ancient city. In search for a new city for his civilization, he landed on Singapore and the first creature he saw was a lion. However, Sang Nila Utama's civilization fell and Singapore was left inhabitened. The fish body is supposed to signify Singapore's past as Temasak, which means fishing village in Javanese. It is suppose to mean that Singapore was a fishing village in the olden times. Mr Brunner wanted something that could be purely of Singapore and an identity of the history of what this island used to be.
