Sculpture: Beagle Head

It seems that we have a new rock sculpture to view in my hometown, Naguillan Rd., Baguio City, Philippines. It has a big beagle head. During my younger years, every main road going to the lowland areas had this kind of sculpture. Lion's Head on Kennon Rd. and Marcos Head on Marcos Highway, where it was blasted by a bomber before. Going back to sculpture, we usually stop over to these places and take some photos as a keepsake. Are you fond of seeing rock sculptures at your place?

@Shavkat I can tell that it caught the visitors' attention. Perhaps as a result of its size.

Actually, I am not that sure about it. I tried to research more about it. It was said that it was not intended for tourist attraction.

Oh, I see. I am sure you like other things. It is not for everybody to appreciate them though.

That is such a cool picture. It seems like a great place for a tourist to pull over and take a selfie.

I also think so. I cannot wait to see it in person. It is a bit far from my place.

Yes, it is. I hope you can go through this road. Most of the time, you can see the Head of Marcos in Marcos Hi-Way. I am not sure if they rebuild it now. Image Credit: encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com

There are no concrete facts about it yet. If I will go there, I will check it. I cannot find any accurate information on the Internet.

I am still puzzled who did it. If I have the chance to see it up close, I might known it.

It indeed can attract people when seeing it in person. The bigger one is the Lion's Head in Kennon Rd., Baguio City, Philippines. Image Credit: goodnewspilipinas.com
