World's Largest Rocking Horse


Google Street View

This giant rocking horse in the town of Gumeracha, Australia is the World's biggest rocking horse, however for safety reason it is embedded in concrete and doesn't rock. It is part of a larger complex which includes a wooden toy factory, wildlife park and a cafĂ©. A much smaller and real rocking horse has also been  placed adjacent to the giant so that the kids visiting it are not disappointed.
