Jose Marti Memorial in Cuba, Havana Resort
Rating: 7,6/10 (300 votes)  One of the symbols of modern Cuba. The memorial is located in the central Revolution Square in Havana and was built in honor of the centenary of the birth of the most famous Cuban poet, who actively participated in the battles for the liberation of Cuba from colonial dependence. The memorial is an obelisk , an idea borrowed from the Lincoln Memorial at the Pentagon in Washington. It differs from the American prototype in color and in a slightly different shape. This monument rises to 109 meters and is visible from many points of the city. The recently completed elevator and observation deck at the very top give the memorial a modern touch.
