In commemoration of Bayambang’s 405th Founding Anniversary, the 400th year of the St. Vincent Ferrer Parish, as well as the 600th Death Anniversary of St. Vincent Ferrer himself, a 50.23 meter statue of the saint was erected in the St. Vincent Ferrer Prayer Park last April 5, 2019. It has been recognized as the tallest bamboo sculpture in the world, landing a top spot on the Guinness Book of World Records.
The structure was constructed with steel framing and engineered bamboo cladding, epitomizing the beauty and artistry of a historical town in a prosperous province. The park is also equipped with a chapel and food establishments, as well as strategically placed Stations of the Cross.
