Imagine Peace Tower
The "Imagine the World" tower breaks the stereotypes that towers and monuments should be tall, granite, iron, rough and dimensional. Indeed, in most countries of the world they are exactly like that. If a monument is made in some other way, from paper or wood, it is usually called an installation. The most amazing cities now surprise their guests not only with unusual futuristic installations, but also with "cosmic" monuments. One of these unusual attractions is located in the city of Reykjavik. The monument is the creation of Yoko Ono, the widow of the well-known Beatles legend, John Lennon.
History of appearance
The tower is called "Imagine the World" and symbolizes the song "Imagine" performed by John Lennon. She tells a perfect world in which hunger, poverty, heaven and hell have disappeared, they do not exist there. "Imagine Peace" belongs to the list of those monuments that in such a touching way demonstrate the manifestation of love for their main person in life.
The Imagine the World Tower is a real work of art that demonstrates a very deep message to the whole world. People come from different countries to see this monument. Among them are Beatle fans and ordinary people who are also worried about the fate of our Earth. The grand opening of the sculpture in the form of a tower was on October 9, 2007. This date coincides with the anniversary of John Lennon's birth. It took exactly one year to fully erect the "Imagine the World" tower.
A miracle in the sculpture world
The amazing woman Yoko Ono came up with the "lighthouse of the world". This is exactly what the "Imagine the World" Tower is all about. In society, it is called the well of desires. Bright rays of light shoot upward from it. This action occurs several times (for a couple of days) per year. The rays form a tower that seems ephemeral, unreal, but immaculately beautiful. The six lanterns that emit light are powered by geothermal energy. They reach up to the heavens and pierce them 4 kilometers up. Without exaggeration, these rays are simply gigantic.
The Imagine the World Tower is only turned on in the evening. Immediately after the sun goes out into the night, the city attracts attention in one place. The action lasts until midnight, and there are several days a year when the rays don't turn off throughout the night. These are January 1st and October 9th, the birthdays of Yoko and John.
