Experience a deeply moving and meaningful journey as you attend the Anzac Day Dawn Service at Sandakan, the very site where the infamous Sandakan Death Marches began during World War II. This emotional commemoration pays tribute to the courage, endurance, and sacrifice of the prisoners of war who lost their lives in one of history’s most tragic events. Standing amidst the quiet dawn, you’ll feel the powerful connection between past and present as you honor their memory alongside fellow travelers and locals who come together in remembrance.

Continue your journey with a visit to the Sandakan Memorial Park, built on the original site of the POW Camp. Here, history comes alive through exhibits, photographs, and memorials that tell the harrowing yet inspiring story of survival and resilience.

I tried to find this place but missed a few times as the location on Waze wasn’t clear. I didn’t explore this place except taking some pictures of the beautiful water lilies in the ponds. For those who loves to see flowers like me can check out this place, you will immediately see the pond once you enter from the entrance.

A must-see for war and history enthusiasts, Australians and British, or if you want a rainforest walk that's not too taxing. The former should make a stop at the house at the top of the stairs - it is a beautiful, dedicated memorial telling the story of the POW camp, death marches and thereafter, with a rolling wall of remembrance.
