Monument to the Chicken Crossing the Road
next to the Royal Drama Theatre, Stockholm, Sweden
Description:
All travelers who find themselves in Scandinavia, note the politeness and tact of local drivers. They will always miss pedestrians crossing the road. But, as you know, you quickly get used to the good and stop appreciating what you have.
In Stockholm, for example, there is a very funny monument, the meaning of which is obvious: drivers have a limit of patience, and no matter how loyal they are, on the road you should be responsible to all traffic participants.
The monument looks like a running chicken, strewn, not seeing anything in front of him. It is said that the drivers of the city jumped on this funny sculpture, expressing in such a humorous way their attitude towards women crossing the road. Obviously, with a sense of humor, the Swedes are perfectly fine.
