Description
This is the Peace Arch Park at the USA and Canadian border. A grand arch stands against a partly cloudy sky, adorned with the American and Canadian flags at the top. The phrase "CHILDREN OF A COMMON MOTHER" is inscribed near the top of the arch, symbolizing unity between the two nations.
From Wikipedia: Peace Arch Park is an international park consisting of Peace Arch Historical State Park in Washington, United States and Peace Arch Provincial Park in British Columbia, Canada. The park straddles the international boundary between the two countries at the extreme western end of the main contiguous section of the two countries' land border, between Blaine, Washington, United States, and Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, where it reaches Semiahmoo Bay of the Salish Sea on the continent's Pacific Coast.
