THE UNESCO WORLD HERITGE LIST

STATUE OF LIBERTY 

Resultado de imagen de estatua de la libertadOne of my big dreams is travelling around the world. One of the places that I'd like to go to is the famous city New York. In New York there are a lot of monuments, one of these is the statue of liberty.

The statue of liberty was a french present made by sculptor Bartholdi, in colaboration with Gustave Eiffel, located in the entrance to New York Harbour. This statue was a gift on the centenary of American Independence and it welcomes millions of immigrants to the United States ever since. It also means the ideals of peace, liberty, human rights, abolition of slavery, democracy and oportunity.
This construction is made of steel and is a woman holding a torch in one of her hands and in the other hand holding a book of the constitution.

I would like to visit this monument because I love the city it's in and because when I was little all of my favourite series and films took place in New York city.

The statue of liberty was inscribed in the Unesco World Heritage List in 1984 as cultural site. You can found its official site in this link: http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/307
