Grant's tomb - I did't realise there were mosaics, not exactly in keeping with generals and granite monuments.

It's the surface of a pretty interesting creation. Does that lady have a tag hanging off her hat?

There is also a mosaic image of Dolly Parton on that large object.

Children climb on the object and play around and under (parts) of it.

Fannie Mae Dees Park - Nashville, Tennessee?

Honestly, I thought mgb already guessed.

OK, here you go:

You got it, Borek.

Dolly Parton was relatively easy to Google, otherwise it was a tough one.

Especially for someone like me - living on the other continent.

My earlier hints were aimed at getting people to identify the lady in the mosaic. Minnie Pearl was a comedienne who performed at the Grand Ole Opry (country-music venue) and that should have been a clue as to the location. Her main props were a conservative-looking dress and a big flowered hat with a $1.98 price tag hanging off the brim. When she came on stage, she always started out with a shouted Ho-o-o-o-w De-e-e-e-e! Not that it would have been a good clue for you, Borek. I doubt that the Grand Ole Opry got a lot of air-play in Europe.

I have seen the name, but that's about all.
