A giant, air-filled toad is seem at the lake of the Yuyuantan Park in downtown Beijing on Saturday, July 19, 2014. The 22-meter tall toad, called 'Toad of Rejuvenation' or simply 'Golden Toad,' is meant to represent the traditional Chinese culture as it brings blessings and fortune. The appearance of the Golden Toad can hardly make people refrain from comparing it with the Giant Rubber Duck, an artifact made by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman, famous worldwide.
