Typically well maintained and moving CWGC cemetery. Cafe and museum nearby. I would recommend pre reading to get the most from the place.

A very unique place, with a beautiful monument for the thousands of (unknown) dead soldiers in WWI. The cemetery is also beautiful and worth seeing. The place is next to a relatively busy road, with cafés nearby. A must-see, combined with the nearby museum.

A large memorial located about 20 minutes south of Ypres, with several bars and restaurants within waking distance. There's a visitor right next door with plenty of parking. Plus there is additional parking on the main road, the road which separates the small German memorial from the main Commonwealth memorial. There are so many names here, like the Menin Gate, it is shocking that so many soldiers, of all ages and so many nationalities are listed, missing or simply with no known grave. It's large and very well maintained.

Visited the memorial where my great grandad who is remembered. He was killed in April 1918, and like all those remembered here, he has no known grave. Thank you to those who keep the memorial so pristine. I'm so glad I could pay my respects in such a beautiful place. Rest easy great grandad.

It's very calm and charming place to visit. Some people point it out it's too small but importance is to pay the respect of those soldiers who lost their lives during the battle. Besides I strongly believe this place one of the beautiful resting place. It definitely made me feel in peace for some reason while walking around.
