A Traveller's Tale: One Man's Folly

In the 70s, I remember reading in the local newspaper that Kellie's Castle was unkempt, probably even having been taken over by a primary forest and infested with snakes. That was understandable because tragedies had struck soon after construction of the castle began. . A virulent strain of the Spanish flu from Europe had killed the workers  working  on Kellie's dream castle and Kellie who had already spent a fortune on his house, lost even more money. Kellie's Castle was left unfinisheed and in ruins and was therefore also known s Kellie's Folly. Today though, the castle has become a tourist attraction and there is a little manicured tropical garden that boasts of a tree with a little bear face. One man's folly attracts!

 
Can you see a bear somewhere?
