The two Merlion statues in Ang Mo Kio are part of a public housing project that was completed in the 1980s. They were designed by sculptor Lim Nang Seng and were installed to add a touch of local character and culture to the estate.
Both the Merlion statues are located at the entrance to the estate and are both about 3 meters tall and are made of concrete, with intricate details and features such as scales, fins, and a flowing mane.
While these Merlion statues may not be as well-known or as iconic as the one at Merlion Park, they are a unique and interesting feature of the Ang Mo Kio estate, and are a popular spot for residents and visitors to take photos and enjoy the local scenery.
