What you may notice about this brick wall is that upon closer inspection, it’s not flat or painted whatsoever. Instead, it’s a completely beautiful carved scene.

Notable carvings to spot are the beehive kilns that made these very bricks, churches, the train, wheat, and beautiful sunflowers.

If you’re lucky, you can spot the “easter eggs” hiding in among the carvings. There are a few!
