Wonderful Singapore, but...

Merlion of daytime

Merlion of daytime

Do you like to travel around the world? And have you ever been disappointed to visit famous spots? There are three especially disappointing sightseeing spots in the world. Can you name them? One of them is the Merlion in Singapore.

Point 1: We can't approach it!
Merlion stands along the seashore, so we can't see it in the neighborhood.

Point 2: Water can't come out of it!
Water didn't come out from the mouth temporarily.
And in 2002, it was struck by thunder.

But in spite of these things, I still want to see it. Incidentally, the two other disappointing sightseeing spots are the mermaid image of Copenhagen and the urine boy of Brussels.
