When I was trying to find my way to the station, I came across bizarre site. What I saw was tires, tires, just tires everywhere. And a huge Godzilla was standing in the middle of playground. “Where the hell am I?”
When I was a little child, there was a playground called “Rocket park”(just because there was a rocket-shaped play area in the park) Children call this playground “Godzilla park” or “Tire park,” I assume. There were so many children playing with Godzilla. Impressive!
PS. Later I googled, I found out that everybody calls this park “Tire park.” Approximately 3,000 old tires are used to set up this playground. I wish there was a park like this in my neighborhood!

Another participatory exhibits. Choosing one photo from here, you have to find same image from the hundreds of pictures on the wall. So, which country is your picture from? You can use binocle.
