Rainbow crosswalk

Like a number of other cities around the world, with this 'regenboogzebrapad' or 'rainbow crosswalk' the city of Groningen expresses its tolerance towards the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities. It was painted last October on the occasion of 'National Coming Out Day' on October 11.
The crosswalk is located at the Ubbo Emmiussingel near the Groninger Museum, on the route from the Central Station to the city centre.

  2. Interesting.
    The rainbow crosswalk looks nice, and the whole street looks like another street in everywhere.

  10. Kind of reminds me of an ice cream you can buy here in the States made up of different flavors.
