That is a fact. The Statue of Liberty was indeed a gift from France to the United States, intended to symbolize friendship between the two nations and celebrate the centennial of American independence. It was dedicated on October 28, 1886, and has since become an iconic symbol of freedom and democracy.

No, the real statue is in New York, USA.The mistake may stem from the fact that Liberty was created in France by a French sculptor (it was his idea in the first place), then shipped in crates to New York where it was reassembled on its definitive location.There are also the facts that:- There is a (much smaller) replica of the original statue on the Ile aux cygnes (the swans' island) on the Seine river in Paris;- The original torch, which had been replaced, has been reinstalled alongside the river Seine, near the Pont d'Iéna in Paris (most English tourists mistake the torch for a memorial to Lady Di, who died of a car crash in the tunnel below)

What causes the Statue of Liberty's color?

Originally, the Statue of Liberty was green, due to the fact that it is made of copper. However, after years of exposure to outdoor conditions, sulfuric acid in the rain has reacted with the copper, corroding the copper to produce copper salts. Copper can corrode into different colours depending on the conditions it is exposed to; in normal outdoor exposure, as is the case with the Statue of Liberty, copper usually corrodes into a blue-green colour.

Can you see Statue of Liberty from JFK airport?

The Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower are many thousands of miles apart, and you would be even close to being able to see one from the other, even if you were at the top, giving the broadest field of view. You can see for miles from the top of the Eiffel Tower, but you can't see for thousands of miles.
