Description
Nowhere else on earth is there a symbol that expresses the concept and ideals of personal freedom as dramatically as the Statue of Liberty.Perhaps it is fitting that hundreds of thousands of ordinary people on both sides of the Atlantic contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to her construction and that millions more contributed millions of dollars to ensure her continued existence.
The Statue of Liberty may have been created by the genius of a few visionaries, but the concept she represents speaks to the minds and resonates in the hearts of ordinary men and women everywhere.
========
Don't be fooled. This Statue of Liberty is only 10ft (304.8cm) tall. She sits on a small island that overlooks the Tokyo bay. If you look in the background you can see the Tokyo Tower.
Brings a new understanding that not only America has vowed such freedom!

hehe ya. Believe it or not, it's the exact place one of the original statues of liberties stood. The one that now stands in a garden in France, used to stand in that very spot.
