It is truly a beautiful work and the meaning of each of its sculptures is interesting.

This monument would not be so serious if it had not occurred to them to place it in the middle of a place where the historical value of the hacienda and its buildings and nature predominate. It is a gigantic work that is completely out of harmony with its surroundings, to exalt a single man as if he were a God, in that human habit of personalizing historical achievements and events, detracting from the collective. The sculpture represents Bolívar with the Goddesses of Freedom and Prosperity, with the Angel of Progress and the Victory of Colombia stepping on the Spanish yoke. It was built in the 1930s. Since the 80s it has been complemented by a flag yard, with all the American banners.

I attempted to visit the place on December 31, 2018. However the place was closed at 1 pm. In 2019, Bolivar the series made a profound impact on me as a person and I found a new resolve to visit the Quinta to pay my respects to this hero. No human is perfect and Bolivar the hero he is, is no different. However, liberating Venezuela, Grand Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia remains his greatest achievement and there can be no history of Latin America without mentioning this great man. The death place, to me is a sanctuary, to pay homage. Excellent maintenance, beautiful architecture, memorials well maintained, life size statues of Bolivar, adorn this beautiful place. I did not take the help of guides as I was well aware of the history of the place, however guides are definitely recommended if you want to know more.

Altar De La Patria Esta obra arquitectónica está construida en la Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino fue realizada en 1930, cien años después de la muerte del Libertador en conmemoración a su centenario, fue en esta Casa donde Bolívar pasó sus momentos finales y tomó su último respiro. Emplazada frente al altar se encuentra la Plaza de Banderas, construida en 1980, rinde honores a Simón Bolívar al conmemorarse los 150 años de su muerte. Allí permanecen izadas todas las banderas de América, como expresión del sueño de unidad continental Al centro, en primer plano, La República Victoriosa de Colombia está representada por la escultura sedente que pisa el yugo de la tiranía española. Detrás de esta figura hay una puerta que simboliza a Colombia como la entrada a América del Sur. De pie, a su izquierda, está la Diosa de la Libertad; a la derecha la Diosa de la Prosperidad; detrás de ella hay un león humillado simbolizando la fuerza bruta de la opresión que ha sido vencida. En la parte superior izquierda está la figura sedente del Ángel del Progreso. Al otro extremo, la figura sedente del Ángel de la Paz. En la cúspide del monumento está El Libertador Simón Bolívar, Padre de la Patria
