Lenin memorial in Regla, Havana, Cuba, November 2025

This work by Thelma Marin was installed on Lenin Hill (Colina Lenin) in Regla in 1984, the 60th anniversary of the man’s death. The hill itself, though, was given its name in 1924, the year of his death, and a tree was planted as the first memorial to Lenin outside Soviet Union. It is now one of few that remain.

Now over to all of you. Do come and join us in our Saturday six-word musings.

I’ll admit that many of us openly break the numeric rule and share far more words (all excellent of course!) so the key rule is to have a title of six words – and then create around that the post that you desire! Perhaps in bunches of 6 words if you’re feeling inspired.

To join the challenge, please put a link in your post to the URL of this post. Then come back here and leave us a comment. If you have any problems with linking, just put your own URL into the comment. And do feel free to socialise digitally with the hashtags #SixWordSaturday and #6WS. You’ll find me on Instagram @travel_travel_with_intent and @dsmythphoto
