My city is one awesome city. What about yours? What do you like about your city?

Statue of a man and young girl. - This statue shows a young man and girl and it looks like they are in conversation. This is placed by near the visitors center on the sidewalk. It looks really good.

My city has the Silver Creek Preserve a walking place for walkers. I talked about this in another discussion and showed pictures. Now I just have to talk about the statues that are placed in different places in the city. I have never seen a city do this before. It makes my city one special place. I am posting a picture of one of the statues and as I get responses I will post pictures of the other statues. Pretty neat place this city that I live in.

There's two aspects of Singapore that I especially enjoy- the greenery and the food. Greenery- everywhere you go, it is hard to find a place that is completely devoid of plants and the like. True, the greenery is not completely the work of mother nature for our government has taken great pains to plan the landscape and maintain it. However, it is still a wonderful sight and has earned us the name of 'the Garden City'. Food- due to the different races and religions in Singapore(we have four main ones: Chinese, Malays, Indians and Eurasians), our food culture is jampacked with different cultural and traditional dishes. Fusion dishes are pretty interesting as well. This diversity (and quality!) is pretty hard to find anywhere else.

statue 3 kids playing on log - This is another cool statue that they have. It is on the sidewalk on main street. And it is very beautiful.
Your city sounds like it is pretty cool. I'll bet it is a very colorful place. It doesn't matter how it got there and even though mother nature had help it still was due to her part in the greenry growing.

The things I like about this town is it's small so I know where everything is, most everyone knows your name and who you are and they love having parades and decorating. Things I don't like about this town is that it's small so your limited on what you can buy, ppl know who you are and every little thing about you and there are alot of rednecks here. The town where I was born, now that's a different story. I'd love to move back up there but I couldn't leave my family here to do it. I love the boardwalk by the river, the lakes, the smell of the water, the fact that about 80% of the town is related to me up there. Someday I'm moving back there and then my life will be complete. **AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~

statue of a golfer - This is a statue that stands on the golf range in front of the restaurant there. He looks pretty cool.
The town where you were born sounds like it is very lovely. I can picture it in my eye the way you have described it. I hear very strong emotions coming through when you are talking about the town you were born in. I know you will make it back there someday.

I think Austin Texas is pretty good with the variety of things it offers. Everything from live "grung" rock to ballet. From giant guitars to the Umlauf Sculpture Garden. Walking trails; a beautiful park overlooking Lake Austin, Mt. Bonnell; a natural springs swimming hole, Barton Springs pool; and the last of the "highland lakes" on the Texas Colorado River, running from Lake Buchanan, to Lady Bird Lake. You can go to art museums, history museums, science museums, and even a children's museum! You can hear our symphony, go to live jazz, blues, hiphop or rock and roll venues. You can dine on fine French cuisine or chow down on some good ol' BBQ, and everything you can imagine between. We have all the mall department stores and we have really laid back funky vintage shops. In fact, the only thing is that you REALLY don't want to come in the summer, March is the best month for Austin, that's when the blue bonnets are out! Don't miss going to the Lady Bird Wildflower Center while your in town!

Hi izhuce13, In every town or city there is beauty. Whether it be the trees around the place, or the birds that fly in the air. Just because you are content in where you are doesn't mean you have no ambition or potential. It simply means that you really like where you are and it sounds to me that you like who you are also. Very nice response.

statue of a horse rearing up - I like this one almost the best. I love horses so I am fascinated with this statue.
Hi DiegoDark,I am sorry that you hate your city. There is always something good about a place. Sometimes a person just has to look a little closer is all.

[i]Hello sunshinelady, I don't think my city is that awesome but I like it because it's a small city. What I like about it is, it's cool and pleasant weather. The temperature is around 10-25 deg C all year round. I also like it's fine trees and the different parks the city have. Each parks has it's own flavor to offer. Beautiful flowers adorn the parks. It's a very colorful and lively city and I think that's what I like about it. Have a good day. [/i]
