The Monumento al Divino Salvador del Mundo (Monument to the Divine Savior of the World) in San Salvador.

A popular spot for skateboarders, demonstrations and impromptu rap-battle sessions, it's a beautiful spot to visit while in town. Just be sure to wait until later in the afternoon, once the scorching sun begins to fade some.

I have visited El Salvador many times. This monument was originally used to decorate the tomb of Manuel Enrique Araujo, the President of El Salvador between 1911 and 1913, and presented by Araujo's family on November 26, 1942, in connection to the first National Eucharistic Congress in San Salvador. The iconic statue of Christ on the globe sphere of planet earth is part of the Monument to Divino Salvador del Mundo on Plaza El Salvador del Mundo (The Savior of the World Plaza).
