I remember seeing the Lambananas when I first visited Liverpool several years ago. I spotted this one on a map and realised that it was quite close, so I took a stroll up from my hotel, just a 5 minute walk to have a look at it. It’s quite large so you can see it from a distance. There are more lambananas down on the dock, just by the Museum of Liverpool; each one is uniquely decorated so quite a sight to see.

«Суперламбанана» — ярко-жёлтая уличная скульптура в виде гибрида банана и ягнёнка, находящаяся в Ливерпуле. Вес скульптуры составляет 8 тонн; высота — 5,18 м . Автором является американский художник японского происхождения Таро Чизо. Произведение воплощает символ предостережения об опасности генной инженерии, а также отражает историческое прошлое Ливерпуля: ранее суда, останавливавшиеся в городских доках, чаще всего перевозили овечью шерсть и бананы. Согласно авторской задумке, Суперламбанана должна перемещаться по городу; в настоящее время она располагается возле библиотеки университета им. Джона Мурса. В 2008 году, когда Ливерпуль был выбран Культурной столицей Европы, в городе появилось 125 дизайнерских миникопий скульптуры.

It's looking very tough these days and is not in the nicest part of town. The other smaller ones dotted around are nicer. Worth a stead stroll to see it though.

Not worth the walk across the city to see it. Note that the traffic light crossing for pedestrians doesn't work infront of it!
