Menin Gate Memorial, Ieper (Ypres)

A wonderful memorial. Spend some time here to reflect on the men who walked through on their way to war and never returned. Be sure to catch "The Last Post" ceremony at 8:00 every evening. Be there 30 minutes early to catch a good viewing point.

Excellent. A fitting & moving monument to the soldiers & service men & women of The Great War. The daily evening service provides a few minutes to reflect & ponder the past as well as the future. The thought of so many with unknown graves is so sad. The people of Flanders & in particular Ypres to maintain such a monument & tradition is testimony to their gratitude to those who died.

Excellent a sobering experience to see so many names from so many continents called to war. There were pipers who marched though this evening and we listened to the last post. A truly humbling time on a beautiful sunny evening.

A very moving memorial monument in Ypres, which was built to honour over 50, 000 Commonwealth soldiers who died in World War One who have no known grave. The names of every one of the lost soldiers are engraved on the monument. Definitely worth visiting.

What an amazing experience to share. Utterly speechless that the last post is done by volunteers. Big crowds so get ther early. As for the Gate, a truely breath taking memorial, so many names to read, very humbling. But so worth visiting. As with all of Ypres, everything is so tidy. Fantastic place.
