  Very nice little monument to welcome you into the beautiful city of Ponta Delgada. I especially like how it is done up for different holidays. The square it resides in is a lovely space to be and eat and hang out with friends and family and enjoy the Azores. Not sure what else I can write about the landmark, but regardless it is very nice and I recommend visiting the port and the square.
