On the way to Red Town, I walked through a nearby park and found an area where elderly gentlemen would bring birds in cages and hang them from the trees and put them on the ground. I think they may have been for sale, but I can't say for sure.
Walking between the parks, I ran across the first sculptures, in the form of a band jamming on the grass. A little soundtrack in the background would have been fantastic although behind me the street was pretty busy.
The park itself has a large open area filled with many statues. This is surrounded by buildings which house cafes, art studios, galleries, shops and training centers.
The first item I noticed as I walked into the area was full size car made of bricks and mortar. It was very detailed--check out the detail on the tire treads.
Up against one of the buildings was a sculpture of two ladies sitting on a bench. From a distance they looked somewhat lifelike, although oversized, there was a lot of detail work done on the statues
In the large open area was about a dozen 10' tall legs painted in various colors. Some seemed to be modeled after flags of various countries. When I first got there, a large group of young ladies were all getting their photo taken while peeking out from behind the legs. They were giggling and laughing and having a real good time
The next item was an abacus for the digital age with a modern keyboard and beads for the display. Kids loved playing on this, and it took a couple of times around the park before I could get a photo without people climbing all over it.
On the perimeter of the park in front of some of the shops was the statue of the clowns on a bicycle built for 5. On my way out, I saw the large rose (it was about 3 ft across) up against one of the buildings. The natural patina was very colorful and beautiful. It was also difficult to photograph and make it look as vivid in a photos as it did in real life. I took about half a dozen shots to get one that I was satisfied with.
