The Sayalonga peace monument (Monumento de la Paz). You may pass this monument everyday but what is it about?
Before reaching Sayalonga form the coast, one of the towns on the Ruta del Sol y del Vino, we come across the photographed above curious monument which is dedicated to Peace and is the work of Plací de Gaona.
The exact location is here….
Latitude: 36.80378270
Longtitude: -4.00524620
If you are going to stop to take a closer look make sure you pull off the bend where it is located safely.
Its structure and roses that surround it are worth a quick visit. It is definitely a photo opportunity just outside the inland white village of Sayalonga.
The peace monument is accompanied by an explanatory poster explaining it was inaugurated in 2005 in memory of all those people who fought for freedom, justice and equality
