The National Memorial

The National Memorial

The national memorial is situated at Savar in Dhaka. It has great significance for the future generation. Our descendants will learn about the liberation war and its glorious achievement from it. It symbolizes the nation's respect for the martyrs of the War of Liberation. Arithmetically, It stands 150 feet tall. But every martyr it symbolizes stands much taller. It is an achievement which is immeasurable. There are seven towers in it. Its foundation was lain on the first anniversary of the Victory Day. It is built with concrete. It stands on a base which is 130 feet wide. The relics of the Liberation War will be kept in the museum built near the monument. The memorial reminds its visitors the great sacrifices of the freedom loving people of Bangladesh. It was built to warn all oppressors that the weapons of freedom need not be very big and that oppression will always be defeated. I feel proud standing before it. I show respect standing before it. About 5 months ago I visited it. I feel very happy reaching there. The largest complex of the national memorial have impressed me most. People show respect thereby giving garlands and bowing their heads.
