The magnificent Statue of Liberty stands in New York Harbour and welcomes millions of
foreign visitors and citizens returning to the United States from abroad. The idea for such a statue
originated in France on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the USA.
The French people gave August Bartholdis statue Liberty Enlightening the World to the
American people in 1886. The 12 acre Liberty Island was selected as the permanent site for the
statue. It was placed upon a concrete and granite pedestal. The statue with its pedestal is 305 feet
high.
Approximately 800.000 people visit Liberty Island each year. You can walk up 354 stairs to get to
the top of the statue. An elevator takes sightseers to the top of the pedestal, but from there those
who wish to venture higher, must walk up to the statues head, where there is an observation
platform. On a clear day, this platform affords a wonderful view of the harbour and New York. The
right arm and the torch are not open to the public.
There is a museum on Liberty Island, at the foot of the statue
