The Presidential Rock is located on the southeastern slope of Mount Rushmore in South Dakota, USA. It is the largest human face sculpture in the world. Mount Rushmore is named "Presidential Mountain" because of the portraits of four U.S. presidents carved on the mountain. The four presidents are George Washington, the founding president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson, the third U.S. president who was one of the drafters of the Declaration of Independence, Abraham Lincoln, the president who maintained the unity of the United States and won the Civil War, the father of modern America, The 26th President Theodore Roosevelt. According to historical data, as many as 360 American sculptors participated in this magnificent project at that time. In 1939, the huge project of the cliff face statue, commonly known as "President Hill", was finally completed in all aspects. Since then, the "National Mount Rushmore Memorial Site" has been presented to people with a new look. The "Presidential Mountain", which was excavated and carved by the mountain, on the dignified, dignified, majestic, and bare granite peaks of the past, now stands on the top of George Wharton, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Giant busts of Roosevelt's four presidents. These stone bust statues, which are both virtual and real, are large in size. The faces of each president, from the chin to the top of the head, range from 18 meters to 21 meters respectively. At the foot of the mountain with the carved heads of the four presidents, surrounded by vigorous pines and cypresses, there is a wide avenue. There are more than a dozen square columns erected on both sides of the avenue. The state flags of the fifty states of the United States are decorated in groups of four on the square columns with marble veneer, symbolizing the federal state of the United States of America. Their heads are embossed in high-relief realism and embedded on high mountain peaks. Although the faces are not facing in one direction, they echo each other harmoniously, with a solemn appearance and piercing eyes, staring straight ahead. The closed lips reveal wisdom and perseverance, each revealing different character traits, and the great man's temperament emerges spontaneously. The tourists who come to pay their respects are all in awe and moved.
Mount Rushmore National Memorial Park is a huge sculpture of the granite surface of Mount Rushmore in Montenegro near Kistom, South Dakota. The stone sculpture features 18-meter avatars of former US presidents Washington, Jefferson, Great Roosevelt and Lincoln. The four presidents represent the birth, growth, development and preservation of the country.
Tourism is South Dakota's second largest industry, where President Hill is located, and has rightly become the state's most tourist attraction. Now nearly three million people visit from around the world every year. So you think there don't seem to be so many people in the US attractions, and the head of the main line of the entrance center is a striking and exquisite-looking presidential avatar sculpture. But in fact, the scenic spots are still full of people, highlighting the status of tourist attractions. Going further, I came to the Grand Observation Deck Grand View Terrace, , which is the best location for watching sculptures and taking pictures. Lunch can be settled near the souvenir shop and visitor center. Friends who have a special interest in desserts can go to the long queue to buy ice cream named after the president. Friends with plenty of time, you can take the presidential road The Presidential Trail, which is a path from the Grand Observation Deck, through Lincoln • Borgrum Museum Lincoln Borglum Visitor Center, and through the yellow pine forest, and finally reach the sculptor's studio Sculptor''s Studio, which provides people with a good opportunity to get closer to the memorial hall and sculpture art. Will. It is said that the entire Mount Rushmore will be illuminated by lights at night, with different sensory experiences. Fees and tour time: many national parks do not require entrance fees, the fee is parking fees, here is $11/car, bus $50/car. Tour time: about 1 hour with the group, free travel is recommended at least 1.5 more than an hour.
The night before, it rained heavily, the next day it was clear, and the direction of Mount Rushmore was very suitable for getting up in the morning to take pictures. It was not retrograde before noon. The park was free, but the parking lot was for money, but it was not expensive. A car has ten knives for unlimited time.
The weather is great for a stroll to this historical place!
Rushmore の President Hill! It is already the spiritual totem of the United States, the American logo の symbol! The old news is famous, it is rare to see it today, quite emotional! Ah, the carving is between the mountains, and it looks really small from afar! But the four great presidents are lifelike, each has its own advantages, enough to shock and worth seeing!
When I arrived at President Mountain, I felt that it was better to see it. The scene felt spectacular. It is said that there are activities at night, but I only have day trips, so I didn't experience it. The overall price is very high, $11 a car, and this ticket is an annual ticket, the price is quite close to the people. Hopefully, friends who have time can go and see it.
