Big, Bigger , Biggest

Countries, Cities, and Communities need their own type of identity. Many of Contries, cities and the communities have captured their own identity by displaying giant statues of their own importance. For example, a Big Duck in New York Citythe giant curling rock in Manitoba, and don't forget the Big Banana in Australia or the Giant Easter Egg in Alberta, and last but not least, we have a 12m bright re apple near highway 401 between Toronto and Kingston. These giant figures, attract many travelers and tuorists from parts around the world. More than half a million people come to see the Big Apple annually. These giant statues are developing as years pass on. In Australia, the Big Banana has evolved into a main attraction at an amusement park, with slides, ice rinks, cafeterias and not to for get, the famous choc coated bananas. These attractions also helps people learn more about the community and the meaning of why they were built.

I think this is a great way to build an identity of a country, city, and communties. They are built for a reason which will show some kind of detail and identity of them. It was told that there are more and more statues and monuments being built in order to expand on their name. This is a great idea if your starting with something small, because as mentioned, tourists from all over the world come and observe the big statues which is a great way if you want to lure attractors.
