A colourful beacon it attracts both locals and visitors. Seating aplenty in vibrant red welcomes all and at all times.

It was created by a multimedia artist and an architect. Imaginative, it is a great addition to the attractions of this historic city.

Honestly, I can´t tell if it is nice or not. It´s definitely impressive and unique. At least I have never seen anything like this before. We visited it in winter so we just stopped for a while and took a few pictures as there was nothing else to do. But it was worth it and I will never forget this attraction.

The entire square is recovered with a red coating which gives a modern twist to this part of St.Gallen at the edge of the old town.
As it was Valentine weekend, Globus chose to match the Porsche with this beautiful red heart.

The idea of covering a part of the city with the red plastic carpet is great. It makes the area nicer, different and more welcoming.

This small square really lightens up the city, which lacks a little bit of colours. A place to see and may be go play with the children (there is a funny car-shaped red form which will be appreciated by the kids).

I accidentally stumbled across this area while walking through the city. It was a pretty unique and interesting Artscape with red carpet covering streets, footpaths, seats etc. Nice to see but probably not worth going out of your way.

Do not go there. Nobody writes about that. Should not be listed here. Do not get fooled. Do not waste your time.

A strange place in the city of Sankt Gallen. Funny to walk around here. No idea why they did this. But I think the Raifaissen Bank have money enough.

How quirky! This is an area of St Gallen where the ground and the seating are completely red. Worth seeing if you are in the centre of town.
