The Guwahati War Cemetery

I visited this place on the second day of exploring Guwahati. The place wasn't hard to find, I reached Silpukhuri by bus and had to walk only a few steps to get there. It is situated in one of the prime locations of the city. One of the most notable things I would say was well to do maintenance that has been done in this place. The place is quiet and peaceful. One can spend time here in the summers as the wind brushes off your face which feels nice and cool. There were lots of flowers there which were pretty to look at. Moreover while walking I was able to see the names of the soldiers who lost their lives in the Second world war and was able to sense the historical significance linked to this place. Therefore it was a nice experience to remember. ~12th May, 2023

The Guwahati War Cemetery is a very peaceful and well-maintained place. It is not just a cemetery, but a place full of history, respect, and silence that makes you think deeply. This cemetery is dedicated to the soldiers who lost their lives during the Second World War, mainly those who fought in the Burma campaign. The moment you enter, you feel a sense of calm. The surroundings are clean, green, and beautifully maintained. The grass is neatly cut, the flowers are fresh, and every grave is properly marked with names, ranks, and messages. It clearly shows how much care and respect is given to the soldiers resting here.

Resting place of World WarII brave soldiers. This place have historical significance but least known. Take a walk along the graves of those brave hearts who sacrificed their life for the country. With soldiers as young as 22 years being martyred here you will feel weak at heart. The place is well groomed with lush green grasses and beautiful flowers. It's very peaceful and calm. One can spend a hot summer day here in the shades of the huge trees around.

The Cemetery was started during the Second World War for burials from the several military hospitals posted in the area. Later, other graves were brought in by the Army Graves Service. There are now 486 Commonwealth servicemen of the Second World War buried or commemorated in this cemetery. Of these, 25 burials are unidentified.
