The Monument of Unity and Peace (centenary) is one of the most prominent landmarks of the city, which enjoys great historical importance and cultural value. It was designed in 1998 AD to celebrate the peaceful and harmonious coexistence between the indigenous people and immigrants in Davao City and the 100th anniversary of the independence of the Philippines. This distinctive monument depicts a group of people shooting 3 pigeons together as a symbol of their unity and peace between them.
