This is a human-made attractions. It was built to serve as a shopping mall and tourist attraction. Vi Chien

I agree with Vi Chien that this is a human-made attraction. Being one of the largest fountains in the world, one must definitely visit this bronze wonder if in Singapore. Its location in the bustling Central Business District also increases accessibilty to the fountain as well as its accompanying shopping centre.
