Beautifully crafted artwork. When you walk around it, it seems the sculpture does not really exist. Check it out yourself

If you want a place in this setting with a view that has not been hijacked by the Lions Club for selfish propaganda purposes, this is a good place.

A little less and more subtle advertising for the Lions Club would be appropriate. The path markings, which are roughly slapped everywhere, border on disfigurement and are partly placed over existing markings, and the many posters with the clumsy mallet propaganda are just annoying. The vantage point itself is beautiful, but unfortunately it is quite disfigured. Also the entire way there, from the junction at the parking lot to the view.
