the decrepit monument

Build in 1981 to celebrate the 1300 anniversary of the creation of the First Bulgarian State, this monument is located in the garden in front of the National Palace of Culture. Now nobody wants to pay for fixing it, there is a fence around it, with a signs "caution falling objects".

As if you were reading my mind. I was thinking about this monument this morning, and that I actually liked the sculptures huddled in between the monstrous amounts of granite around them.
The graffiti covered hoarding surrounding it at present and the indifference of the people walking around it says it all. So its good by to one of the last communist behemoths, it was long overdue...

Good one!
Cheers!
