    2020.02.22 Monument to the heroes of Iquique, Valparaiso, Chile. During the war in the Pacific, beginning May 21, 1886, this monument paid a tribute to the heroes of the naval operations of Iquique and Punta Gruesa. This Iquique hero monument is located in Valparaiso. The Iquique naval battle is a naval battle between a Chilean wooden ship and a Peruvian armored warship. Chilean commander Pratt (the statue on the monument) is about to sink on the warship. On the occasion, after jumping on the enemy ship to do the desperate struggle, the country was formidable, so cast a monument in memory.

    It is located near Plaza Sotomayor. Around the area there is small artesenal market to walk around and Muelle Prat is also not far from here.

    Beautiful war memorial in the center of the town plaza. This Chilean monument may be the only one not vandalized as there are armed guards protecting it 😅
