Fue creado por el artista aragonés Francisco Rallo Lahoz en 1991 y consiste en un gran globo terráqueo de bronce de más de 3 metros de diámetro, sostenido por una base de piedra que representa las olas del mar. En su superficie, están grabados los continentes y los meridianos, simbolizando la unión cultural y geográfica entre España y América. El globo rinde homenaje a la expansión de la cultura hispánica en el mundo y refleja el espíritu de la Hispanidad, destacando valores como el encuentro entre pueblos, la exploración y la universalidad.

很有意思,但是不太看的懂!
