Nowadays replicas of the Statue of Liberty exist almost at every continent. There are 3 of them in Japan. This one was built in 2000 in Odaiba and it's highly popular.
Leaning Tower of Niles in Illinois, US
Robert Ilg built this tower in 1934 as a part of a park for employees of the Ilg Hot Air Electric Ventilating Company of Chicago. It's half as large as its prototype but not less popular.

Tower Bridge in Suzhou, China
The replica is 40 meters high. The only difference between the copy and the original tower is that the replica has twice as many towers as the original version and lacks raising mechanisms that allow boats to pass under the bridge.
Mount Rushmore in Chongqing, China
The monument is located in one of the parks of Chongqing that was the capital of China from 1937 till 1945. It was built in honor of American soldiers who helped China in the war against Japan.

Clive Palmer decided to build a replica of the Titanic in 2002 and finished in 2018. Seems Clive missed the boat....again.

I knew about the Parthenon in Nashville, Tennessee. I saw it back in 1971 when my husband and I went on our honeymoon. Didn't go in though.
