STATUE OF UNITY;8TH WONDER OF WORLD

To Be 8th Wonder of World: Statue of Unity

If you know India well, you will also know the big name of Sardar vallabh bhai Patel. Yes you guessed it right. He was from the same community, which is present prominently in the US and lot of other countries as NRIs.

You must also be knowing that, there is a project going on for construction of Statue of Unity in India. It is being constructed near Narmada River in a western State Gujarat, India. The man who will be immortal after this statue is the same Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. Let's have some quick facts about statute.
comparision


  1. The statue will stand at 182 meters (597 feet) twice as high as the famous Statue of Liberty in New York City which rises “only” 93 meters into the sky; and four times higher than the statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
  2. Its total cost, estimated at 29 billion rupees ($450 million) will be financed by public funds and private donations, according to Gujarat officials. The project has been begged by L&T India, who was the lowest bidder.
  3. The proposed 182-meter tall Sardar Patel's statue will be erected on a small rocky island in the middle of the Narmada riverbed facing Sardar Sarovar Dam at Kevadia. The statue will have steel framing, reinforced cement concrete, and bronze coating.
  4. The agricultural iron collected from farmers in the form of used tools will be a symbolic contribution highlighting the participation of farmers in the idea of paying tribute to Sardar. 
  5. A heavy-load open lift with a panoramic view will be built alongside the Statue of Unity. Visitors will be able to rise up to the height of the structure’s head, walk into a viewing gallery and enjoy a panoramic view of the Sardar Sarovar Nigam project and the surrounding region from an astounding height of close to 400ft.



The final visualization will be something like this.

We hope that it will definitely be accepted as 8th wonder.
