Visit San Juan Historic Park and the Peace Tree (Árbol de la Paz), a place where it was developed an important battle of the North American-Cuban-Hispanic War, and the tree in which it was signed the surrender of Santiago de Cuba.

In the Loma de San Juan Hill you can admire various monuments in memory of the numbered casualties in both sides in the battle developed in the surroundings of Santiago on the first of July 1898. You can witness sculptures to the Victorious Mambí, to the Unknown North American Soldier and to the Spaniard Soldier surrounded by a series of cannons and artillery objects decorating the place.

Furthermore, quite close to the hill, a ceiba tree named the Peace Tree (Árbol de la Paz) witnessed the surrender of the city, although nowadays just remains the trunk of this historic tree which fell few months after the centenary of the battle.
