We made a quick stop in Antwerp. It's a weird city, looks beautiful on the outside, but I had a weird feeling all the time. It had lots of weird monuments, diamond shops everywhere, Jews running around in their silly clothes, and sun flowers in the city center...
This is the train station. It is huge, has several levels, and is full of diamond stores.
Why would anyone plant sun flowers in the center of the city?
Statues on every 10 meters
A blind man
A huge cathedral
Pretty houses
Another weird statue. Looks like a legionare
People sunbathing in the "sea"
And this statue is in front of a museum dedicated to the Canadians that liberated the city in WW2. What is it supposed to represent?
The little people are looking up to the big giant for help. The big giant has a look of being fit and able and with a determined expression. He means business. Have a look at bicycle.fotopages.com for the Charles Darwin memorial artworks, and my interpretation of one of them. Do artists have devious minds?

So the big giant is Canada?

Canada is Big. I once bicycled from Edmonton to Vancouver and back
