Many are skeptical that rubbing a sculpture can attract love, luck and happiness. However, despite doubts, tourists once again try not to miss the opportunity to improve their situation and touch the treasured object. 
Girona lioness
In Spain there is an amazing sculpture of a lioness. The animal is captured right as it climbs onto the column. The figure was created back in the 12th century. So the local residents decided to express their gratitude to the lioness, who saved the townspeople from danger many times. The original is now in the museum, and there is a copy on the street. It is believed that the figure can help make dreams come true, but to do this you need to kiss it at the base of the tail. Despite the strangeness of the action, there are many who want to carry it out. 
Abraham Lincoln's nose
In one of the American cemeteries where the aforementioned president is buried, there is a monument erected in his honor. His nose stands out clearly because visitors are constantly rubbing it. Many tourists believe that touching the nose of the monument can attract good luck. 
Weeping Column
The capital of Turkey also has a sculpture that can make dreams come true. The uniqueness of the column located in the St. Sophia Cathedral is that it constantly releases moisture. To attract luck, you need to stick your thumb into the hole. After this, it should be turned in a circle, while making a cherished wish. In order for it to be fulfilled, it is necessary that the finger ends up wet. 
Juliet's breasts
The statue of the heroine of the famous work has long been considered one of the main symbols of Verona. It is believed that to attract success, one must rub the right breast of the sculpture. However, not so long ago, the authorities put a copy instead of the original statue, since constant touching by tourists damaged the figure. It is interesting that not only the breast was damaged, but also the girl’s arm, on which visitors constantly lean. 
Lemon seller's finger
In the second half of the last century, a monument to a woman who sold lemons was erected in Hamburg. He really lived in this city and sold exotic fruit. However, the woman was observed to have mental retardation, which is why her life was not the easiest. Since the saleswoman's life was not marked by many happy days, a monument was erected to her to give happiness to others. It is believed that all you need to do is rub her finger.
