    David Hume's nine-foot bronze statue is on the high street, near St. Gills Cathedral, across the street from Royal Avenue. Founded in 1997 to commemorate the famous philosopher David Hume. Ironically, the firm advocacy of reason has become a place of superstition, with many tourists rubbing the big toes of the statue.

    Sculptures "David" like to photograph David from the front, but his magnificent lower part will be a little embarrassing, I think from the back, David seems more masculine - "muscular back, strong waist, especially the full male buttocks, that is David's most attractive part.

    European culture is so deep that you can see many scenic spots with a very long history everywhere, and many of them are free places without spending money. You really should learn about European history slowly when you have time.

    I finally saw the magnificent chicken, full of power and beauty. David is the representative work of Michelangelo, a great Italian Renaissance sculptor (painter). It was created in 1501-1504 and is now collected in the Florence Academy of Fine Arts. This statue is considered to be one of the most boastful male body statues in the history of Western art. The statue is 2.5 metres high, 5.5 metres high, and is carved out of a block of marble.
