It was adopted as a symbol by the Singapore Tourism Board two years later and has been in use until 1997. During this period, the Merlion has become a representative of Singapore, like the Eiffel Tower in France or the Statue of Liberty in the United States. The design of the Merlion Lion Head is inspired by a legend about Singapore’s history.
