The Royal Horse Whisperer

 
A 2003 photo of a gimongous sculpture of HH Sheikh Zayed riding Vain Hussar, a white Asil Arabian horse. This iconic structure was located on the Corniche until the 2005 land reclamation, when it was removed forever. Being such a popular landmark with Emiraitis, expats and tourists, I’m thinking starting a national campaign to bring it back! You can show your support by leaving a comment below :)

I've been meaning to ask...is that really the sculpture? Because it looks 'real'...the clothes and everything.
