Dataset of the Tallest Statues in the World
Among the tallest statues in the world, the Statue of Unity stands the tallest at 182 meters, excluding its base which itself is 58 meters tall. Now, imagine four Statues of Liberty stacked atop each other - that's how tall the Statue of Unity is.
Completed recently in 2018, the statue depicts the highly respected Indian statesman and independence activist Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel (1875–1950), who was recognized and respected for his leadership in uniting the 562 princely states of India to form the single large Union of India.
