The tallest world's sculpture "Kind Angel of Peace" with a height of 135 meters will be built on five continents. 

 

The environmental organization TERRA VIVA initiated the construction of the first "Angel" 5 years ago to unite all people with the idea of Kindness and Peace.

 

[Nikolai Drozdov, Head of TERRA VIVA]:

"This idea of uniting people living according the principles of goodness and justice, came on the eve of the third millennium. There is a need to create a unifying moral principle. And so a symbol was created - the "Kind Angel of Peace."

 

The author and chief architect of the international project is the honored Russian artist Peter Stronsky.

 

For the first "Kind Angel of Peace" will come to Europe. 

 

It will be constructed on the island of Cyprus. 

 

The other four continents have not decided on a place yet.

 

The architectural and monumental "Kind Angel of Peace" will consist of a base with a transparent sphere that is 49 meters high and the figure of an angel standing 86 meters tall.

 

Special illumination will make the work visible even from space.

 

Inside the sculpture there will be a hotel or a concert hall, as well as offices, restaurants, cafes, bars and an observation deck.

 

Experts predict that "Kind Angel of Peace" will attract more than 1 million visitors from around the world in the first year after its creation.

 

After several years, the number of tourists will increase to 3.5 million. 

 

According to organizers, this will positively affect the local economy.

 

To date, small sculptural ensembles of the "Kind Angel of Peace" have been installed in 30 cities in Russia and abroad. 

 

A "Kind Angel of Peace" monument was unveiled in 2007 in the "Park of 850th Anniversary of Moscow" in the Russian capital.
