Scotland - The Kelpies

On our last full day in Scotland we drove from Dunoon to Edinburgh, taking it easy before checking into a hotel and preparing for our flight home the next day.  On the drive over we stopped at the Keplies sculpture, which can only be described by an image.

The Kelpies

Yes, this is a large sculpture of two horse heads!  Very impressive, especially when viewed from close up.  But here's my question.  Why?  Why indeed!  From what I was able to determine, it is a piece of art that serves as a monument to "the horse powered heritage across Scotland."  Okay then.  

I certainly wouldn't put this at the top of my must-see list in Scotland, but if you have the time and are nearby, go ahead and visit.  It is impressive!
