I was there for an event called We can Be heros. It was organised by OSCA and the Nature Festival. It was inflatable artwork floating around. The artists running it were very approachable, they were happy and engaging, asking me about other events that I'd been to that they had put on.

Nice enough to rest, Sofitel Hotel is just within the corner of thos Square. Great for lunch breaks. Good for late afternoon stretching with few trees, grassy grounds and fresh air.

I have to say, for the time it took to download that silly app and then running around like hunting Pokemon without finding anything of significance, except some small, flickering and unsteady 3D imagery akin to 1980s Video artistry, I enjoyed it sod-all and was glad to leave.
