Cenotaph

A monument is erected at the seaside of Old Guanzai Cape, with written descriptions to commemorate the unknown martyrs who died gloriously in modern world history and Malay contemporary history. The seaside scenery is very beautiful and the geographical environment is very good.

A monument by the sea is just one street away from the city hall. The monument is surrounded, people can not go into the appreciation, can only turn around in the periphery. Not far from it is the cruise terminal, which is a good place to view tall cruise ships from a distance.

I saw it when I was visiting the seaside area, but I didn't pay much attention to its historical story. I thought it was a local celebrity monument. It turned out to be a war monument.

Penang, Malaysia, was once a British colony. The war monument near the coast was built in memory of the victims of the World War. In order to commemorate our ancestors and remind our descendants of the cost of war.

Where war is commemorated, there will always be monuments to commemorate the past of those who lived in the past. It is essential to remember that history is necessary.
