The Statue of Liberty is one of the most famous sights in the world. The statue was not made in the US. It was a gift from the people of France in 1884.
At first,the statue stood in paris. It was brought to the US in pieces. But the city needed a lot of money to put the statue up on Bedloe's Island. For two years the statue stayed in 220 boxes.
The statue was the first sight of New York for many immigrants. The look in her eyes was a promise of a new start in a new world.
