Liberty Sculpture Park Reviews

I own the property next to the sculpture park and ever since they started putting up statues it has made my life a living hell. I have people driving acrossed my property some getting stuck in the sand and turning my 10 acres into a wasted place its full of dirt roads now. I moved out here before Eddie world and the sculpture park I liked the quite but I don't have that any more, I don't care people going to there's places but they don't have to destroy my property, so please people the entrance is on yermo rd not telstar

This place is designed to bring awareness to communism and the need for freedom. The park is odd but makes more sense if you google it and read about the goal of the artists who owns the property and learn more about the statues. Like I said, it is interesting.

We've passed by this particular attraction a few times on the way to Las Vegas and one day, we just were interested on the way back home and decided to stopover. The park is relatively new, but it was certainly interesting to see how art was used to raise awareness of the events going on in Hong Kong (as well as in China).

The only issues I had with the park was:

-The way into the park was a little tricky; I've seen cars go in some strange ways to enter the park but hopefully the artist/owner of the park will make it easier for accessibility

-Vandalism was becoming increasingly evident; I know the owner can't do much but I hope they'll come every now and then to clean up the graffiti left behind by kids

-Some strange men were hanging around the park grounds; I'm not sure if there is some security detail, but in our visit, we saw 2 men in dark clothes hanging around in a corner. Not sure if they were guards but I hope the owner is aware and will explain whether or not these men were protecting the park or not.

All in all, I'd say it's worth checking out, as the park only requires visitors a 10-15 minute window to view the whole lot.

If you are stopping at Peggy Sue's, swing by the Liberty Sculpture Park. I was driving from Las Vegas to San Diego, which I had not done in 10 years and as I was getting off, noticed the sculptures off the side of I-15 and decided after my stop to loop back up the regular road to the exit before. It was easy to miss the entrance, but I was determined to explore this roadside attraction.

Having lived in Hong Kong in 1981-82 and not a fan of CCP and was very sorry to see Hong Kong and Macau fall into Communist China and fear the same may happen to Taiwan. This Park is all about the people of China yearning to be free and will not be silenced. It's really worth the stop to be seen.

After spending the night in the camper parked at Eddies World Truck Stop in Yermo, California. Noted several sculptures in a field a short distance from the truck stop. Naturally, had to investigate these monuments. Located a 36-acre desert lot known as Liberty Sculpture Park. This park was established in 2017 by a group of Chinese dissidents. Its purpose was to highlight the Chinese people’s desire for freedom and to condemn the actions of the Chinese Communist Party against the population of China. Weiming Chen a sculptor, was one of the founders of this park. Utilizing the concept, that sculptures could be used to portray the desire for freedom, he set about constructing large piece of artwork that could be seem from the Interstate and surrounding area. Activist Li Wangyang is honored with a 16-foot-high statue depicting him in chains standing before a military tribunal court. Convicted and sentenced to twenty-one years in jail, he was later “eliminated.” A giant 20-foot-high monument with the numbers 6 and 4 represents the date (6/04/1989) of the massacre at Tiananmen Square. The names of two hundred individual who died that day are listed on the reverse side of each number. “Tank Man” is a life size monument to the unknown individual standing defiantly in front of a column of Chinese tanks as they rolled into the square. This 1,300-pound concrete statue is remarkable and reflects an individual with no fear of the tanks. His determination to stop the tanks is etched on his face. The tank is an actual size replica of tanks used that day in 1989. These few sculptures will arouse your desire for freedom. Additional sculptures located in the park represent other aspects of the Chinese Communist Party attempts to curtail civil liberties and suppress democracy for the Chinese people. Signs of arson and vandalism are noted throughout the park. The CCP Virus 1 statue was destroy and remains a pile of rubble. Graffiti artist have been busy, and their decorations can be observed on several of the pieces of art. Sad that liberty and freedom means so little to some individuals. Additional works of art are in progress. A remarkable collection, well worth an hours of your time.

This is an exceptional sculpture history museum. Take your time to read about each sculpture. Most of the sculptures are about Chins’s history from the Great famine, the Great escape to Hong Kong, the Tiananmen massacre, the COVID-19, the struggle for freedom in 2019 Hong and other events.
The sculptures are massive.
There have been multiple times when the sculptures had been vandalized and even fire bombed. The FBI got involved.
Most saddened was when three dogs guarding the park at night were beaten to death.

Very impressive massive structures. Almost every sculpture has a detailed background story behind.
The recreation of the tank man of the Tiananmen Square massacre in Beijing in 1989 is especially heartwarming that 6000 miles away, the courage of the tank man

Long desert drives require a bit of unexpected eye-gaze. There are several sculptures one can see off the I-15 freeway. You are not certain if it is real, fake, and instantly intrigued. It's more of a sculpture display in the desert landscape. Desert art is becoming quite popular. Seven Magic Mountains, still stand en route to Vegas. Each sculpture is massive and interesting, although no placards to describe anything about these sculptures. What is really neat is that the armored tank can be explored. You can touch, take pictures, go inside and have a wow time. Plenty of space for kiddos to scream and adults to take a nice stretch break. When you are done, don't waste you time in Barstow, walk across the street to Eddie's World. A magnificent experience of delicious food choices, ice cream, and every candy known to man. in fact, Eddie's claims it has the cleanest restrooms in the world. I may agree, and they smell floral as well.

Very interesting art pieces a lot of history I didn’t know myself very cool art work but very sad stories behind it. Would be nice if they maintained the dirt roads but my Nissan was able to drive through it nicely also the way into there you gotta just take a bunch of little dirt roads to it they should definitely put more sings out but I really enjoyed it

This park is a private park with the ability to have tables in the shade to rest. Entrance is on Yermo Road via a dirt road. This is a tribute to those Chinese still fighting to be free in Mainland China. There are status in the area that you can drive or walk to.
