I love statuary. That is what our pier needs.

What is the significance of that man wearing a veil?

Was the top photo taken from a ferry? Reminds me of crossing to visit the Isle Of Wight

  The veil is signifying that he is turning a blind eye towards smuggling.
  
  I was standing near to the statue in the bottom photo when I took the first photo (using zoom).

    What is the coloured markers in the background on the promenade? Also, what is that impressive building?

      Oops, I mean what ‘are’ those coloured markers? I was initially going to only ask about the building and mid-sentence thought I’d ask about the markers too.

        The history of the building can be seen here:

        I am not sure what you are seeing as coloured markers, unless you are meaning the cranes in the background?

What a wonderful place, Cherry, to put on our Bucket List. I especially like the last sculpture.

  We didn’t have enough time to explore as much as we would have liked

  Unfortunately that is it, we didn’t have much time there. There is however still Miramare Castle to look forward to.
