At first glance these horses seem so real you expect them to run right on by you. Then you get to experience their fabulous presence by walking right up to them to admire the sculptors skill & interpretation.

We stopped here to see the sculpture garden. While it was small and did not have many pieces, it is very well done. Worth a stop. A nice use of water and reflections.

This place is great to take the family to check out! Plenty of grass for the kids to run around. Enjoy hearing the pilots and ATC talk over the radio on the outdoor speaker. I highly recommend. And it’s free!

Mandalay Canal

An old European-style waterway with cobblestoned walkways lined with shops and restaurants.

Reviewed By williammM4487UM

The Las Colinas Mandalay Canals and Lake Carolyn are well worth visiting. The canals remind me a bit of San Antonio's famous river walk but without the crowds and chaos. A favorite for photographers, newlyweds, and lovers out for a romantic walk. Super safe at night and if you continue onto Lake Carolyn you'll find numerous restaurants to dine on the water. Don't forget to check out the Ponies at Las Colinas statues.

Las Colinas Flower Clock

Reviewed By Experience707918 - Irving, United States

Always a fresh and beautiful attraction. Manicured practically daily and the flowers are changed out with the seasons. You usually see passers-by posing for pictures in front of the clock.
