The "I Love Guyana" sign stands on the lawns of the Guyana Bank for Trade and Industry at High and Young Streets, Kingston, a short walk from the Umana Yana, the Lighthouse and the seawall.
It is 12 feet high and 30 feet wide and is painted in the green, gold, red, black and white of the national flag, the Golden Arrowhead. The sign was conceived and built by Impressions, the Georgetown signage and branding company, and unveiled on 18 December 2019 with GBTI as its sponsor and the Tourism and Hospitality Association of Guyana in support. The bank's sponsorship covers the sign's upkeep and lighting.
It is lit at night and free to visit at any hour. Stand in the walkway in front of the letters for the classic photograph, with the Atlantic breeze coming off the seawall behind you.
