A 30-foot giant poo emoji has sprung up in downtown Portland’s Pioneer Courthouse Square. The big brown inflatable spectacle, provided and organized by Poo-Pourri, was designed in part to support World Toilet Day, an international annual event that works to drive attention towards the global sanitation crisis.

It's not just a big brown balloon. Visitors can tour the inside, watch light projections and sit on nonoperational toilets that have interactive iPad tablets.

The kid-friendly attraction is free and for every visitor $2 are donated to the World Toilet Organization by Poo-Pourri. Hours run from 10 a.m to 10 p.m. until Tuesday.

Poo-Pourri plans to take the giant inflatable to over 20 cities across the country.
