Good move! Hope the Bamiyan Buddha which was destroyed in Afghanistan by Taliban militants is also recreated!

A replica of a 2,000-year-old arch in the Syrian city of Palmyra that survived attempts by ISIS militants to destroy it is to be erected in London and New York using the world's biggest 3D printer.
The 15-metre-high arch is one of the few remaining parts of the Temple of Bel in the Syrian city. It was almost completely destroyed by ISIS militants as they systematically destroyed Palmyra over the past year.
The construction of a replica will be the centrepiece of a series of events around World Heritage Week, planned for April, with a theme of replication and reconstruction, The Guardian reported.
The pieces will be made in China using the world's biggest 3D printer and then assembled in place in Trafalgar Square in London and Times Square in New York.
