Statue of Liberty
Skyscrapers of the Manhattan borough of New York
Can you spot the statue of liberty?
I was indeed amazed to be able to appreciate the nice replica of the statue at Shenzhen.
The Statue of Liberty, officially titled Liberty Enlightening the World, dedicated on October 28, 1886, is a monument commemorating the centennial of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence, given to the United States by the people of France to represent the friendship between the two countries established during the American Revolution. It represents a woman wearing a stola, a radiant crown and sandals, trampling a broken chain, carrying a torch in her raised right hand and a tabula ansata, where the date of the Declaration of Independence JULY IV MDCCLXXVI is inscribed, in her left arm. Standing on Liberty Island in New York Harbor, it welcomes visitors, immigrants, and returning Americans traveling by ship.

China really knows how to compete for the tourism market...Well done!
ReplyDeleteMy husband is going to China Via HK on work assgnment. I must remind him to see this Statute of Liberty.
ReplyDeleteMany years ago, I went with my friends and climbed the real mc Coy. It was so tall.
I think they did a good job on the replicas.
ReplyDeleteNice sequence. The last shot is the keeper.
ReplyDeleteChina is certainly good at creating "clone" out of everything

Mmmm, sure looks like the real one!
ReplyDeleteThis is all very interesting. I didn't know that there was a replica of the statue at Shenzhen.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if you can use this replica and pass it off as the real thing! Haha
ReplyDeleteAmazing isn't it? all the world attraction in one place!
ReplyDeleteI can see. After looking at the 2nd photo and then re-looking at the first one..hehe.
ReplyDeleteI’d love to see this State of Liberty. I already saw the one in France and the one in New York – I hope I can see yours someday. When I researched the history of the statue when I was writing my post last July I was surprised that so many people in the US did not know that it was a gift from the people of France. Thanks for mentioning it.
ReplyDeleteWenn: My grandparents saw this wen they came to America over 100 years ago.
