Beautiful place thats tidy, clean, well-kept, and well-organised... As a patriotic ambience, this place symbolizes our nations spirit... A 10 minute drive by OLA Auto is necessary to reach Asias largest Marina Beach that is only 7 to 8 minutes from MGR Chennai Central Railway Station.Victory War Memorial is surrounded by Indian Army Regional Headquarters, Indian Navy Base Camp (INS Adyar), Chennai Port and Central Inter-Service Battalion, and the CISF office and mess.

Victory War Memorial, formerly called the Cupids bow, is a memorial in Chennai, India, originally constructed to commemorate the victory of the Allied Armies during World War I (1914–1918) and later became the victory war memorial for World War II (1939–1945), erected in the memory of those from the Madras presidency who lost their lives in the wars.[1] Later addition includes inscriptions of 1948 Kashmir Aggression, 1962 War with China and the Indo-Pakistan War.It is a circular rock and marble structure built in the area that formerly housed the coastal belfry. Within what was once called Cupids Bow stands a flag post with the Tricolour aflutter, and a squat tower that lances the sky. Beyond the red-and-gold pennants that line the path are steps that lead to a plaque replete with the names of men from the Madras Presidency who fell in two World Wars and those that followed Independence. The towering National Flag will be visible over a long distance and would be there throughout the year. The flag is expected to instill a feeling of oneness and patriotism amongst all the citizens and remind them about the supreme sacrifices made by our soldiers in the highest tradition of the Services.The flag mast measuring 30.5 meters in height proudly holds aloft the 20 feet by 30 feet Tricolour which adds to the grandeur of the Victory War Memorial.

Saw it yesterday on my way back from the station, beautiful structure. Memorial to the the soldier who protect our Country.

What a design and what a structure simple super so patriotic scenarios if you visit that surroundings just opposite chennai port office.And midst of signal point on main road and almost 2kms from chennai central railway station and so neat and well protected by the staff the surrounding walls I mean some chains rounded this place.It is written 1938 and 1945 the war period memories.The stones color is so unique and as the morning sun rays falls on that memorial pillar its so bright and blowing with beautiful coloring and so photogenic and at the ground level ap Greene the park type they maintained.

The design of the War memorial is awesome. It was originally constructed to commemorate the victory of the Allied Forces during World War 1 & later to celebrate the victory of World War 2. Later addition includes inscriptions of 1948 Kashmir Aggression, 1962 War with China and the Indo-Pakistan War.

This memorial called Victory War Memorial or simply War Memorial by local people is a Memorial built to honour and respect those who laid their lives in World War I (1914-18) and World War II (1939-45l) and to commemorate the Victory of Allies.Later it included the heroes of those who laid their lives in Wars of Kashmir Aggression (1948), Indo-China War, Pak war etc. Inscriptions on the tower describe this.I visited it in my young days and have been seeing this on number of occasion while passing through.It is centrally cated on Kamaraj Saalai in between Fort St. George and Marina Beach. From here a road lead to Central Railway Station.This place is very well maintained, spotless clean, and has a spread if Green carpet like lawns. Salute our Army people for this. It gives a patriotic feeling to all those who sees even from distance.This is a Circular Marble structure and there is a beautiful tower with inscriptions on those who lost their lives. Tricolour is hoisted and visible from long distance.When you pass through tell your children about this Memorial and those martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country. This will instill patriotism in young age and take them inside. History is seeing and feeling the events happened.

Victory War Memorial is located in south of Fort St. George. It was built in memory of allied armies fought in World War-I. People from Madras presidency who lost their lives in the World War-II war are also remembered here. Later became the memorial for those who lost their lives in Kashmir aggression, war with China and Indo-Pakistan war.War memorial on Beach road dedicated to martyrs who scarified their lifes in freedom fight and war. It is well maintained and managed by the Armed forces.

Greeny environment! Simply awesome! Constructed for a noble cause!

This Victoria war memorial was located near south to St.George Fort near marina beach. Within that cupit bow standing a flag post. Opposite to island ground. This memorial was built for the victory of first world war and added extra structure after winning second world war during the period of British colonist india and addition includes Kashmir aggression in 1962(indo-pak war).

Had a great view at night. The place is lit up and had a nice feeling

Nice coolest place but not alowed to pepole inside. Watch out side no prblm

The huge national flag in front of victory war memorial it looks very good to see

Gud place gud maintained and clean but very small.

Beautiful mausoleum dedicated to the memory of martyrs who had fought in many wars that India was forced into. The place is in the middle of a busy road and adjacent to the gate 10 of Chennai port.You would see this but you wont look at it closely, thats what I had observed over the years. The place is designed like a traffic island. We couldnt find a proper entry way or a note about the monument. We went inside after jumping over a barricade.The atmosphere inside is calm and the traffic around us didnt bother us a lot. It is well maintained but theres no documents or note about the monument at the location.I wont suggest you to go to the spot to just visit this monument. But since attractions like marina beach and Napier bridge are around, you might want to take a detour and visit the spot. Its a nice place to get pictures. (Thats what I think :) )

It is a small memorial for second world war. Located in the middle of a round about.

Maintained by indian army, nice to visit

A poi in the middle of a huge traffic roundabout with no lights. Its really difficult to get in and out. And there was a dude that didnt allow us in because its closed at like 4pm. Huh?

Memorial for the Indian soldiers who fought for Britishers in first and second world war.

Well maintained

Historic place to visit

One of the places which you need to visit while travelling to Chennai..

Good

Nice place..

#. A large traffic island type design.#. A very tall Sthubha engraved with different names, is in the middle.#. Indian National Flag on one side, guarded by army men.#. Built, in memory of soldiers, who had to fight for our mother land.#. There is a circular building around.#. Inside, thick lawn.#. No proper guidance.#. Restrictions in stand & video photography.

A good location

Good place ....

Nice experiance

Tribute to Second world War martyr. Maintained by army people. Hoisted flag appears good. Saluted the place and paid tribute to the martyr.

Great and Strategic Location. Tall flag mast with our national flag bring patriotism at sight. Actually, it is a roundabout road helping to drive across different directions.

An island ground. Its a quite good spot. But dont travel that much there just to see it. Nothing much is there. Just a pillar of warriors. Can see if you are patriotic. But i love it.

Good Historical place. Can visit. Near Marina beach. Cool location.

Awsm place to visit

A memorial for war veterans that lost their life in different wars, dating back to 1914. The place is decently maintained by the army.The place does not have parking and is located in the middle of a main intersection. Crossing the road could be a difficulty.Free entry.

Beautiful war memorial in Chennai daily early morning 60 clock National flag raising very nice

First I thought it has something more to see.... But theres nothing more to see there.. But I got a good feeling seeing our national flag there.. One time watchable

My landmark

Excellent place, neatly maintained, generate some patriotism, imagine the history, sit in calm... Feel it....

Wonderful place, must visit to see the sacrifices of martyrs.It is located to the south of Fort St. George and marks the beginning of the 13-km-long Marina beach.Memorial for Martyrs those who laid down their lives in the World War I and WWII and Kargil wars..The tall flag hoisted there brings you goosebumps for sure, very protected place and We can see army guards on each security point..I saw martyrs family members visit on their birthdays or special occasions and could see flowers on the memorial.Each Inscriptions has a list of martyrs died in that war.Each side of the stupa has Tamil, Telugu Urudu and English written on it

It was pretty much good.Victory War Memorial is located to the South of Fort St. George where the Flag Staff Road meets the Beach Road adjacent to the Island Ground. A solemn place in Memory Martyrsthose who laid down their lives in the WWI and WWII. Later the Names of those Martyrs who fought the 1948, 1962, 1965, 1971 and Kargil Wars were added.There is a Large Tri-colour Flag of India which inspires the visitors to salute the Armed Forces and Para Military Forces for their selfless service to the Nation. The intensity is at the peak when you stand at the Tower for a few minutes with moist eyes. But the problem at present is that it is not accessible now. The people around hardly help through guiding which way to go. Own Google map is the only solution.

Victory War Memorial was constructed in the memory of allied armies who lost their lives in World War I. It then became a memorial for World War II. It commemorates the sacrifices made by soldiers of the Madras Presidency in service to the British Crown.Victory War Memorial was protected by army ,when I visited 3 army officers guard this famous place in Chennai.The flag of India are situated in front of gate.On special occasion fountain will be shown and hence fountains are mostly not shown on regular days.This place should be visited atleast once in a life time.It is open 24/7 .You will find different languages on the memorial wall.

Ironic places in Chennai and a heritage Site. Maintained by the Indian Army in a very excellent way.It has a memorial pillar, dooms around it and a green garden inside and a huge Indian flag.Mostly public allowed to view from outside, its very visible from the entrance.As a citizen of India its great moment to remember out soliders who has given their life for us! Jai Hind!!!# no parking# wheelchair accessible entrance# one way

Good watchable place

The Victory War Memorial is located to the south of Fort St. George and marks the beginning of the 13-km-long Marina beach. It is a circular rock and marble structure built in the area that formerly housed the coastal belfry. t’s a windy morning and the road outside the Victory War Memorial is busy with the sounds of daily living. Within what was once called Cupid’s Bow stands a flag post with the Tricolour aflutter, and a squat tower that lances the sky.

Nice place.... But the army personnelare little bit suspicious... Be careful..

It is good place to see but u cant go inside

I feel indian when iam crossing this place yeh mera india

One of the major monuments of British era in chennai! Historical monuments like these hold interesting stories behind them and this holds a lot of info regarding our country and our peoples involvement alongside the allied forces in world wars and also regarding Indias wars after Independence.

Oh WooW one more beauty of Worldwar second even today it is mainted by Indian army proud of them.Well groomed and flags are being hoisted regularly.

Its a memorial for soldiers who fought and died since WW 1 including Chinese Aggression & Indo- Pak Wars. Their names are engraved. Its beautifully maintained by Indian Army Southern Command and definitely worth a visit if you have time.

A magnificent depiction of the World War I and tribute to the ones who laid down their lives.

I didnt know that this was there in Chennai but while explore marina area I saw this place and sat there with a soldier and heard his stories about the borders and military life. Loved this place ...

A place where u can pay respect to fallen soldiers. A must visit if u love ur country

Its nice to see the national flag flying so high in this place, one can feel the patriotism while crossing this place.

Nice place
