Manneken Pis - Brussels, Belgium 2007

Manneken Pis is a Brusssel's landmark. A legend goes like this: In
the 14th century Brussels was under siege by a foreign power. The
city had held their ground for quite some time. The attackers had
thought of a plan to place explosive charges at the city walls. A
little boy named Juliaanske from Brussels happened to be spying
on them as they were preparing. He urinated on the burning fuse
and thus saved the city.
