from www.junglejam.tv Outside the Provincial HQ, this bronze statue of Che Guevara, probably dating to 1997, is one of the most unique statues of him. He is portrayed holding a child but also many tiny works of art on his body are said to represent various stages of his life. Another one beside this shows a large sculpture recalling the star he wore on his beret.
