José Martí Square, a minimalist and elegant design on Gran Mariscal Avenue (Eng - Esp)
Greetings friends lovers of architecture and design I wish you have an excellent and blessed day in union with your loved ones, today I share my visit to the José Martí square, located on Gran Mariscal Avenue in the city of Cumaná, it is a very new square in fact it was built this year, by the "Cumaná I love you foundation" and pays tribute to José Martí, a prominent Cuban leader, the square stands out for its modern and elegant minimalist design, its location in an area where several avenues converge, makes it eye-catching and a great reference point, it has concrete benches, LED lights of various colors and in the center a gray rectangle, where other accessories will be placed later, the square is shaped like a roundabout and has a very nice design, on several occasions I have passed by there and I have been struck by the simple design of the square and how its elements combine with the surroundings, creating a pleasant space for recreation and sharing with family and friends.
Being located in an open space with little vegetation, visits should be made in the evening or at night. In the latter, its beautiful lights create a great spectacle of colors that looks very good. The white benches take on the color of the lights. These are located at the bottom, in small boxes that serve to protect the lamps.
Saludos amigos amantes de la arquitectura y el diseño deseo que tengan un excelente y bendecido día en unión de sus seres queridos, hoy comparto mi visita a la plaza José Martí, ubicada en la avenida Gran Mariscal en la ciudad Cumaná, es una plaza muy nueva de hecho fue construida este año, por la "fundación Cumaná te quiero" y rinde homenaje a José Martí, un destacado líder cubano, la plaza destaca por su diseño minimalista moderno y elegante, su ubicación en una zona donde convergen varias avenidas, la hacen llamativa y un gran punto de referencia, cuenta con bancos de concreto, luces led de variados colores y en el centro un rectángulo de color gris, donde posteriormente se colocarán otros accesorios, la plaza tiene forma de redoma y un diseño muy bonito, en varias oportunidades he pasado por allí y me ha llamado la atención el diseño sencillo de la plaza y como sus elementos combinan con el entorno, creando un espacio agradable para el esparcimiento y compartir con familares y amigos.
Al estar ubicada en un espacio abierto y con poca vegatación, las visitas se deben hacer en horario vespertino o nocturno, en este último sus hermosas luces crean un gran espectáculo de colores quese ve muy bien, los bancos que son de color blanco toman el color de las luces, estas se ubican en la parte inferior, en pequeños cajetines que sirven para proteger las lámparas.
I've passed by this place several times, but I hadn't had the opportunity to see the Plaza de Ceca because I was traveling on public transport. From the moment I saw it, I thought it was very interesting, and I was eager to visit. A few days ago, my wish came true, and I had the opportunity to see the plaza while running errands in the area. I was able to take several photos. I didn't know its name because the common fund roundabout had previously been located there.
I paused my errands, walked over, and took several photos. I also spoke with the caretakers, who explained that the plaza pays tribute to the legacy of Cuban leader Martí and its design aims to promote simple, elegant structures with few materials that beautify the city. I liked its design, which combines colors in both the lights and the plants in the gardens. These come in various shapes: triangular, circular, and trapezoid. It has four concrete entrances or walkways. One of the entrances reads: "Gobernación del Estado Sucre" (Sucre State Government), and the other says: "Sucre te quiero" (I love you).
Around the square there is a bank, several educational institutions, commercial establishments and more, very close is the hospital and a well-known bakery in the city, visiting this area allows you to connect with different avenues, the benches are shaped like a semi-arch in the front and straight in the back, the floor is made of concrete and has several gray stars.
The gardens are surrounded by a green wall, and in front of them are the benches. It was exciting to explore the plaza and see its elegant design up close.
En varias oportunidades he pasado por este lugar,pero no había tenido la oprtunidad de ver la plaza de ceca, porque iba en el transporte, desde que la ví me pareció muy interesante, y estaba inquieta por visitarla, hace pocos días se me cumplió el deseo y tuve la oportunidad de conocer la plaza, mientras hacía diligencias en esa zona y pude tomarle varias fotos, desconocía su nombre pues anteriormente, allí se encontraba la redoma fondo común.
Hice una pausa en mis diligencias, me acerqué e hice varias fotos, además conversé con los encargados de cuidarla y me explicaron que la plaza rinde tributo al legado del líder cubano Martí y su diseño tiene como objetivo promover estructuras sencillas, elegantes y con pocos materiales que embellezcan la ciudad, su diseño me gustó y combina colores tanto en las luces, como en las plantas los jardines, estos tienen variadas formas; triangular, circular y de trapecio, cuenta con cuatro entradas o caminerías que son de concreto, en una de las entradas se lee: Gobernación del estado Sucre y en la otra dice; Sucre te quiero.
Alrededor de la plaza se encuentra una entidad bancaria varias instituciones educativas, establecimientos comerciales y más, muy cerca queda el hospital y una panadería muy conocida en la ciudad, visitar esta zona te permite conectar con diferentes avenidas, los bancos tienen forma de medio arco en la parte delantera y en el posterior son rectos, el piso esde concreto y tiene varias estrellas de color gris.
Los jardines tienen alrededor un muro de color verde, al frente de ellos se encuentran los bancos, fue emocionante conocer la plaza y ver de cerca su elegante diseño.
¡Bendiciones!
Blessings!

Greetings @mayramalu, it's a beautiful plaza with a great design and colorful lights that pays tribute to the Cuban hero.
Have a great week!
Greetings friend, the result of this square was really beautiful. At night it is even more beautiful with the lights on. Many years passed without working on it, but it was worth the wait. A hug
Hi friend, it's true, it looks very pretty. I passed by at night once and loved the view. The colored lights give it a youthful and elegant look. I didn't know its name, but I used to call it a common fund redoma.
Best regards!
I didn't know there was a plaza in Venezuela that pays tribute to our National Hero, José Martí. There are several spaces here dedicated to Simón Bolívar, which defines the brotherhood between our countries.
Greetings, friend. I'd been passing by the plaza and didn't know its name. Its design is minimalist but very elegant. At night, the view is spectacular. It was a pleasant surprise to learn its name. Besides the plaza, there are several spaces in the city that honor Cuban heroes.
Happy night!
