In 1976, as part of the Bicentennial Celebration, landscapers at Kings Island created a living replica of the Liberty Bell, complete with the crack, and hung it on International Street near the Grand Carousel.

The Liberty Bell topiary is composed of 14,000 alternanthera plants, weighs two tons and is one of the most photographed attractions in the park!

Share in the comments below if you have taken a photo of the Liberty Bell during a visit to Kings Island.
