Very beautiful place to visit! We were there at night and everything is lit up very nicely! Very clean and tidy! I’ve always wanted to go here on Nov 11 for the ceremony! This has such a nice view down Elgin street and the opposite when looking from Elgin. Very cool place to visit. It wasn’t busy at night at all! Pay your respects!

Good to see them back, and with added security. The troops off duty were happy to engage in brief conversation. Nice people. Also had a long chat with the tenting community behind. A good, calm debate. You may not agree with their views but they have every right to be there and made some interesting points. Be nice!! Peace out.
This is a really nice memorial. On remembrance day, they do a big service which is quite moving to attend. On other days you can walk right up and pay your respects at the tomb of the unknown soldier.
I noticed the benches all over the place where you can sit around after the long walks, and enjoy something to drink or snacks while looking around. It's nice here. Watch the people go by and wait a bit to see some Lambos and riders go by. Rental scooters are also everywhere. Reading the little things by the statues are interesting.
The National War Memorial pays respect to over 2,300,000 men and women who fought/ fight for Canadian values.This memorial stands proudly facing Canada's Parliament Buildings on Eligin street. It is the centre of activity each November 11th where Canadians remember our armed forces. Remembrance day commemorates the date when the armistice agreement was signed ending World War I. The cenotaph includes many meanings from the archway of troops entering and leaving the battlefields to the wreaths and poppies laid in respect for the fallen. Over 118,000 Canadians have paid this ultimate sacrifice and we have our freedom because of their commitment. On October 22, 2014, this was the site where cpl Nathan Cirillo was murdered by a coward who shot him in the back. Cpl Cirillo was standing as an honor guard at the memorial while holding a special rifle that is designed to not fire bullets. The coward was eventually gunned down in the hallways of the parliament buildings. If you like my reviews, photos or videos please give them a thumbs up. Or even better, thank someone from our armed forces foŕ their service
