Аккуратнее, куча попрошаек
Manque d entretien. Le square est fermé et tout sale. La pelouse est morte. Le site se degrade

The Statue which is located near the old train station consists the lion and 3 former kings and a queen. The statues placed here are really beautiful and catches attention. I was impressed.
MoreIn abbandono, in un giardinetto chiuso e malridotto. Peccato.
