The Citizen Soldier fountain, a statue erected as a memorial for the Boer War, is found at the Public Gardens in Halifax, Nova Scotia. It is situated in a little pond amid a weeping tree (Weeping European Beech tree) and elm (Camperdown Elm) that provides a lot of shade. I think it's a perfect spot to bring a book with, some tea and enjoy precious quiet time. The sound of the water is very soothing. Often, there would be a lovely birds bathing in the water. A nice sight.
