This piano is from Japan (you can see Mount Fuji on the inside):
This sculpture from Shanghai, China is based on the true story of a young woman who was passionate about saving cranes and who died in a swamp while rescuing an injured crane:
The man who planted trees:
this is from the city of Montreal:
The bird tree (Canada):
They chose to portray about 8 species birds (several of which! I add this because of the commenter who actually counted the birds or something), most of these species are almost extinct, which is heartbreaking. Three of the eight are from Brazil. :-( I almost cried just reading about the birds.
This one is from a city in China too. The Chinese sculputures are some of the biggest (this is HUGE) and most beautiful. (I'm not sharing the American one right now, it's pretty lame, with some farmers & produce)
This is from Canada too (the majority is) and it portrays "mother earth:"
Tree Man:
I'll try to share more pictures of the Botanical Gardens later! Tonight, if all goes well, we'll see hot air balloons!! (I hope to share too).

These are amazing! I'm so glad you shared your photos. :)
Wow! That's really cool, and I hadn't heard about this project. Thanks for sharing!
There are 56 birds in the birds tree.
Just to let you known :-)
