Orlando, FL, USA & Tainan, Taiwan Sister City Monument - Orlando, FL - Rock and Mineral Displays on Waymarking.com

This unique monument from Tainan, Taiwan to Orlando, Florida, USA features a huge stone that has been sculpted by the winds for tens or thousands of years. There is a nearby plaque that reads:

"This huge black marble stone was sculpted by the winds for over ten thousand years. It was discovered first in the mountains in Jua-Lien County on the eastern coast of Taiwan at an altitude of one thousand six hundred meters. It has been a major undertaking to remove this stone from the mountain heights, transport it to the seaport and prepare it for shipment. There are two significant words chosen by Tainan City’s Mayor Su to be inscribed on the stone. ‘Loyal to Country. Filial to Parents.’" (from (visit link) )
