The monument on Independence Square is very eye-catching because of its high height, which is basically a bit similar to most Independence monuments, and the steps below the monument, although not many, are enough to reflect the sense of majesty. There is a half-arc wall next to it, which makes it a small area isolated from the surrounding area. In addition to some sculptures of characters, there is a beautiful sculpture of a young boy riding a horse.
