This monument in Kolkata is one special one which is dedicated to the lost and unknown soldiers of the World War I. This monument was built by the British in the year 1924 and it is located on the Northern side of the city. The architecture of the place is kept simple yet is attractive to capture the attention of the people. You can feel the warmth of positivity in the ambiance of the place. Timings: 10 AM- 7 PM Entry Fee: Free

Erected by the Britishers in 1924 in remembrance of the British soldiers who had laid down their lives in World War 1,this war monument is a unique piece of architecture located beside Mayo Road and offers an unobstructed view of the Eden Gardens.

Except the mosquitoes here buzzing on your head in a thick column the view is nice. I dont think there is a closeby place to park your car and check this place out. You may have to park a bit further and walk down here to visit the cenotaph.

This Colonial architecture is Memorial of world war 1 but very much deprived of tourist attractions. Deserves some care and beautification

The glorious day. It is a war memorial. It's location is near the Red road. It is a heritage monument. After first world war it was built for commemoration of dead European Soldiers. While going to the Eden Gardens or Kolkata Maidan we see it and salute in mind's eye. There are two statue of British Soldiers whose heads are bent in token of respect.
