A statue of Christopher Columbus is installed along Columbus Roundabout, in Guadalajara, in the Mexican state of Jalisco.[1]
The statue is supported by a large column.[2] It formerly had a plaque that said "The discoverer of America".[3]
Around 2008, the statue received unfavorable comments by indigenous groups as it is located in a zone where the statues of several American liberators are located.[3]
