The stone statues of presidents were built at the suggestion of a historian in the State of Dakota,with a view to carrying forward the US pioneering spirit everlastingly.
The statues are 18 meters high.They are the highest and greatest realistic stone statues in the world,taller than a 6-storied building and larger than the Great Sphinx of Egypt.The size of each head is 20sq mt,with a 20-meter-long face,a 7-meter-long nose,a 2.6-meter-wide mouth and two 1.5-meter-wide eyes.Though not facing the same direction,they are all lifelike and look ahead gravely in harmony with fixed gazes.On clear days,one can have a sight of the four presidents with their firm and steady expression at a distance of dozens of kilometers.
Since the stone sculpture is unique in style,the Monument is now the US National Art Centre of Popular Education.Groups of people keep streaming everyday to the site for a visit and tourists across the world are also interested in taking a view of this great Monument.
