Quimbaya is widely recognized as one of the primary gateways to the Cocora Valley and the coffee-growing axis of Colombia.
The monument serves as a central meeting point during the annual Festival of Candles and Lanterns, a significant cultural event held in December.
Monumento De La Madre is a localized commemorative park located in the center of Quimbaya, Quindío. The site features a central sculpture dedicated to mothers, serving as a focal point for civic gatherings in the municipality. It is situated within an urban square characterized by paved walkways and integrated benches. The park provides an open-air environment for residents and tourists to experience a typical Colombian town plaza atmosphere. It functions as a historical and cultural landmark honoring the maternal figure in the coffee region.

Stay for sunset when the local square becomes the primary hub for community social activity.
Avoid visiting during midday hours as the lack of extensive tree canopy in the central plaza exposes visitors to direct tropical sun.
