The Lion Mountains Sculptured Fountain of the Peace Museum, Sierra Leone

On my bus tour of West Africa, I visited Sierra Leone. After years of Civil War they now have a quest for peace and reconciliation. They created an outdoor Peace Museum of sculptures made of concrete and plaster. These elegant lion sculptures atop a fountain are reminders of the Lion Mountains, a nature forest preserve of peace in Sierra Leone.
