The Simpang Lima Gumul Monument (Indonesian: Monumen Simpang Lima Gumul) or commonly abbreviated as SLG is a monument at Kediri, East Java in Indonesia. The monument resembles the Arc de Triomphe of Paris, France. Construction of SLG began in 2003 and was inaugurated in 2008. The building is located at Tugurejo, District of Ngasem, Kediri Regency, precisely at the center of the meeting of five roads ("Lima" means five) that lead to Central City of Kediri, District of Pagu, District of Pare, District of Plosoklaten, and District of Pesantren.[1]

Aside from being an icon, SLG is currently also a center of the new economy and trade (Central Business District or CBD) of Kediri Regency.[1]
