Barrowland Park is a small park at the eastern end of Glasgow city centre. Ordinarily it's something of an unknown park except for a bit of public art known as Jim Lambie’s Album Pathway, on one of the paved pathway in the park. It's basically a listing of the musical acts that have performed at the nearby Barrowland concert venue for the decades.

Visit if you're a big music fan, otherwise I wouldn't go out of the way.

Inverness Street Market is a small one street market opposite and a little north Camden Town Station. When compared to the likes of Camden High Street and Camden Market, it's not really that special. There's a okay range of arts, handicrafts, clothes and bags stalls etc, plus a few food stalls. Worth a quick look, but I wouldn't come here specifically though

This fountain can be found in the Residenzplatz public square in the Old Town of Salzburg. Said to be the largest fountain in the city, it's a baroque and sea themed fountain.

The fountain contains four groups of sculptures. At the lowest basin stands is four sculptures of seahorses, galloping out of the waves, each spewing out a jet of water from their mouths. Above the seahorses are two men, perhaps a pair of Atlas, bearing the weight of another basin on their mighty shoulders. Above the two men is a smaller bowl supported by three dolphins. And finally, topping off the fountain is a sculpture of Triton, the Greek god of the sea spitting out water from a conch.

A lovely fountain in a lovely public square.

This monument in English Gardens, stands in tribute to Reinhard Freiherr von Werneck, an Austrian soldier who managed the English Garden for six years. The improvements he made included Kleinhesseloher See the Hirschau. This monument was raised by the Bavarian King Ludwig I in his honour.

The monument is fairly simple. The central text panel flanking two columns with classical headbands. The monument is over six meters high and is flanked by benches. Take a look if in the gardens, but don't go out of the way.

Right next to the beautiful Asam Church in Sendlinger Street, is this home of the Asam Brothers, 18th century painters and builders. The impressive façade of stucco was designed by master Egid Quirin Asam himself and intended to serve as a showcase for his work. The facade of this building is pretty much all that's interesting, the interior courtyards is pretty bland and is now occupied by private residences and businesses.

The Asam Church next door is definitely worth visiting, but I wouldn't visit this building on it's own unless combined with a visit to the church as well.
