The Andrés Bonifacio Monument, commonly known simply as Bonifacio Monument or Monumento, is a memorial monument in Caloocan, Philippines which was designed by National Artist Guillermo Tolentino to commemorate the Philippine revolutionary Andrés Bonifacio, the founder and Supremo of the Katipunan, who fought for independence from the politically and socially ruthless colonial rule by Spain.[1]

The monument 13.7 meters (45 ft) in height with symbolic images and other features known as the "Cry of Balintawak" is acclaimed as one of the best monuments in the world.[2][3]
