The bench that laughs

This bench divides the park into two large parts. The first one stays behind, and the second one goes into a real forest. The bench was probably painted by teenage athletes who train in summer camps. Around the bench is the atmosphere of Twin Peaks: a deep forest, singing owls, wires. My favorite place in the city.
