I was never very keen on them! But I really like the figures around the entrance! The building itself reminds me of countless buildings at my alma mater, University of Witwatersrand.

I wondered what it was and it was only when I read the near by plaque that I realised that it was the parliamentary building. It took a bit of further research to find what the sculpted facade represented. It was the sculpture that captured my eye.
