Elephant Parade in Southampton

Finding an art trail in Southampton.

We enjoy finding and following art trails on our travels and we spotted two while in Southampton. The first was The Mayor's Mayflower Mosaic Trail and the second was the Elephant Parade - the world’s largest art exhibition of decorated elephant statues - where there were 25 elephant statues at the Westquay shopping, dining and entertainment centre.

Visit the Elephant Parade section of the Westquay website for more information.

Considering how many safari and jungle-themed adventure golf courses we've visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour you'd think we'd have played more elephant obstacles and seen more trunks on our travels.
