Mayflower II is a replica of the original Mayflower, the ship that carried the Pilgrims from England to America in 1620. Built in 1956, it was designed to resemble the original vessel as closely as possible, using traditional shipbuilding techniques. The replica is docked in Plymouth, Massachusetts, where it serves as a floating museum. Visitors can explore the ship and learn about the Pilgrims' journey and the early colonial period in America. Mayflower II plays an important role in commemorating the history of the Pilgrims and their impact on American culture.
