Arcos del Milenio, Steel sculpture in Guadalajara, Mexico.
The Arcos del Milenio consists of four yellow metal arches of increasing size, reaching a maximum height of 52 meters and weighing 1500 tons.
The municipal government of Guadalajara approved the construction project in July 1999, with the first three arches erected between 2000 and 2001.
Mexican artist Sebastian designed this metallic structure at the intersection of Lazaro Cardenas and Mariano Otero avenues to mark the beginning of the third millennium.
The monument occupies an area of 17,000 square meters and stands as the largest sculpture in Mexico, visible from multiple points in the city.
While the original design called for six arches, only four have been completed due to funding limitations, with a miniature replica of the full concept displayed in Tapalpa.
