Singapore — Origin of the Lion City
In the 13th-century Malay Annals, Sang Nila Utama, a prince from Palembang was shipwrecked and washed ashore to an island. There he saw a creature which he believed was a lion. Taking it to be a good sign, he founded a city, naming it “The Lion City” or Singapura, from the Sanskrit words “simha” (lion) and “pura” (city).
