Why to visit Sentosa Merlion Tower
The Sentosa Merlion Tour takes you to the 37-meter-tall, massive Merlion on Sentosa Island, which is the only Merlion in Singapore and offers a 360-degree view of this exotic city from 60 metres above sea level. The legendary Merlion is a half-lion, half-fish prosperity guardian who personifies Singapore's history as a port city. You will have the opportunity to explore its 5 new zones and view archival behind-the-scenes construction photographs. If you have an inquisitive mind, you will enjoy the interactive learning that uses virtual reality technology and a 3D animated show. Don't forget to ring the Prosperity Bell and receive a limited edition Prosperity Coin before you leave.
Sentosa Merlion Tower, a 121-foot tall statue of Merlion erected on Sentosa Island, is the most famous of all the tourist attractions in Singapore. The Merlion is Singapore's national mascot and cultural icon, with a lion's head and a fish's body. As a result, a visit to this tower is an essential part of any cultural tour of Singapore. Furthermore, climbing to the highest point in the tower, the Merlion's mouth, provides unrestricted panoramic views of Sentosa and Singapore's Southern Shore.
