Statue Of Liberty

The Statue of Liberty, located in New York Harbour, is a symbol of freedom and democracy. Officially titled "Liberty Enlightening the World," the statue was a gift from the people of France to the United States and was dedicated on October 28, 1886.

The statue stands on Liberty Island and is comprised of copper sheets assembled on a framework designed by Alexandre Gustave Eiffel, the same engineer who designed the Eiffel Tower. It was sculpted by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi. The statue represents Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom, holding a torch and a tabula ansata (a tablet evoking the law) inscribed with the date of the American Declaration of Independence.

The torch held high by the statue symbolizes enlightenment, and the broken chains at her feet represent the breaking of the chains of oppression and tyranny. The seven rays on her crown represent the seven continents and seven seas, highlighting the universality of the principles of freedom and democracy.

Visitors to the statue can explore its pedestal and the museum inside, which contains exhibits about the statue's history and significance. The panoramic views of New York City and the harbour from the pedestal and the crown are also popular attractions. The Statue of Liberty stands as an enduring symbol of the enduring values of liberty, democracy, and the pursuit of a better life.
