Mount Rushmore 拉什莫尔山

Though most notably a memorial to former U.S. presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln, the 60-foot granite sculpture—carved by Gutzon and Lincoln Borglum between 1927 and 1941—is also a work of art. Located in South Dakota, the manmade landmark attracted over 2 million people last year. Photo by Shutterstock.

尽管以其纪念美国前任乔治·华盛顿(George Washington)总统、托马斯·杰斐逊(Thomas Jefferson)总统、西奥多·罗斯福(Theodore Roosevelt)总统和亚伯拉罕·林肯(Abraham Lincoln)总统而出名,这座由格鲁(Gutzon)和林肯·波格伦(Lincoln Borglum) 于1927年至1941年间雕刻而成的60英尺高花岗岩雕像同样也是件艺术作品。,这座坐落在南达科塔州(Dakota)的人造景观每年吸引了超过两百万的游客。由 Shutterstock拍摄。
