Monumento Shrine: A Revolutionary Icon at Monumento Circle
Approaching Monumento Circle in South Caloocan, traffic thickens, jeepneys weave through buses, and overhead wires frame the skyline. At the center of it all stands Monumento Shrine, widely known as the Bonifacio Monument. It is impossible to miss. Positioned at the junction of EDSA, MacArthur Highway, Rizal Avenue Extension, and Samson Road, the monument marks the northern threshold of Metro Manila. For travelers arriving from Bulacan, Pampanga, or even Baguio, this structure often becomes the first unmistakable sign that the capital is near.
