Statue of Liberty National Monument
Overview:
The Statue of Liberty, located in the New York City harbor, is not just a monument; it is one of the most important tourist attractions in America and a symbol for millions around the world. It is also recognized as a universal symbol of freedom and democracy.
It was designated as a National Monument in 1924.
Some consider it a gift of the French people to the American people, due to its design made by the most prominent French sculptor in the eighteenth century (Frederick Auguste Bartholdi).
Lovers of heights will get a breathtaking panoramic view when they climb to the top of the Statue of Liberty, which is rarely possible in other parts of the world.
You can pay a quick visit to the Freedom Museum, which contains a large number of collectibles that you can see, perhaps the most prominent of which is the huge mask that embodies the face of the Statue of Liberty.
The administrators of the monument and its surrounding areas provide an audio device as an electronic guide telling the history of the statue's construction and its unified cultural, national and historical significance.
