Set against the peaceful greenery of Icho Park in Oirase, this towering 20.8-meter monument stands as Japan's largest replica of the Statue of Liberty. Built in 1990 to celebrate the town sharing the exact same latitude as New York City, the colossal icon makes for a delightfully unexpected sight in rural northern Japan. Visitors exploring Aomori Prefecture can stroll the tranquil park grounds and snap photos of this grand, cross-continental tribute lifting its torch to the sky.
