mustangs of las colinas

This sculpture is magnificent - anytime day or night. The adjacent - and FREE - museum is only open limited hours, Wed-Sat, 11-4, but Mary the tour guide is incredible. She's got great info on the sculpture itself, the sculptor, but also on all sorts of other things to explore while you are in the area.

We visited the mustangs on a Saturday and the area was not at all crowded. As such we got lots of great photo ops with the sculptures. Note - take pictures! The fountains at the feet of the horses look like they're splashing through the water in a still shot.! The sculptures are detailed and wonderfuly done. From there, I'd suggest a 2-3 block walk up to Las Colinas Blvd and to the left (south) to visit The Cellar or any of the other restaurants down that street.

I had the pleasure of seeing these many years ago and find myself wanting to go back again! These statues together, tearing through the water were just magnificent. If you are in the area, it's definitely worth a stroll to see!

Beautiful sculpture of Mustangs playing in the water that is a must see! Wish I could have packed them in my carry on and brought them home with me.

The horse are in the water and they look like they running it was awesome . Nice area to walk and look around plenty places to eat or just a romantic walk with your special one.

Everyone from the Old to the Young like to visit this Irving Attraction. The Mustang Horses seem to come alive splashing water as they rush along the landscape.

These are fun to watch kids play around on, and great for photos. Beautiful icon of the city. Plenty of parking around for your visit. When the weather is nice, it is a great place to have lunch outdoors.

I noticed the mustangs as I looked out of my window while staying at the Mandalay Hotel. Quick walk to the square and there they were--beautiful mustangs running through the water. I don't know that I would make a special trip to see them, but if in the area, you should check them out.

The horses are running wild through a fountain...very cool! It is in a square surrounded by nice restaurants...see to appreciate.

The Mustangs of Las Colinas are so beautiful, it's hard to believe they have been there as long as they have been. Previous reviews stated that they were difficult to get to, however my boyfriend and I had no trouble finding it. We stayed at the Mandalay and it was just a quick walk for a couple of blocks. They are doing construction right in front on N O'Connor Blvd, so I recommend parking on E. Las Colinas Blvd. in front of or near "The Cellar" and just taking the stroll. It is definitely worth it to see this beautiful work of art!!

Other reviews indicated that finding this was difficult but we had no trouble at all. It is really an amazing piece of art and the water running through it made for an added bonus to view. The only problem we had was that we had a dog with us and the dog is very obedient and was not causing trouble but we were told he had to leave and never mind that we had taken the time and effort to visit. We recommend visiting but don't take a dog and don't expect friendly employees if you do.

It took a little work - the GPS can't find them because they are doing construction & have shut down the road directly in front of the building where the mustangs are. That being said, go to the back of the building and park int he south tower. Anyone can point you toward these beautiful statues! Also, the creator of the mustang statues is a well known artist who has a musuem in the bottom of the buildingAll in all - they are beautiful ! Must SEE!

I was so excited to see this sculpture...unfortunately...they had drained the water so they can clean the fountain and mustangs so I was able to still see them...but they were running through concrete. Still gorgeous !! You MUST see it!

We set off to see the mustangs knowing ahead of time that there was road construction going on that may make locating the statues difficult. It was. We never did find them. If you go make sure you have better directions than we did which was an address typed into our GPS. This area of Irving was much larger than we anticipated and the roadwork made it difficult to get around. Then again, maybe we're just idiots. Really think I would have enjoyed seing this sculpture.Hope you have better luck than us!

For some strange reason they have started to have security at the horses on the weekend. Its a decent sized tourist attraction in the area for some reason. Always seen foreigners taking photos of it, only problem is there is nothing else in the immediate area especially on weekends. There is a small museum inside the building but I have never attended.
