World famous in NZ for some reason! Literally just a giant bottle of L&P

Further information: The Giant Lemon & Paeroa Bottle is a beloved iconic structure in Paeroa, New Zealand. Reaching heights of 6.8 metres with a diameter of 1.3 metres, the bottle is made from concrete rings and is endlessly photographed by tourists due to its unique shape. Originally built as a replica rocket for a Christmas promotion in 1967, it was later painted into the L&P bottle at the end of 1968. The bottle has also been featured in advertisements and on stamps, and was even involved in a Whittaker's delivery van crash in 2013. Tourists today flock to the Ohinemuri Reserve to marvel at such a quirky monument.
