Sandakan Memorial Park

Shannon Chow · August 29, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Sandakan Memorial Park is a place filled with rich history during the world war 2 in Sandakan where the Death March took place. 
The park currently, it is a must visit if your in Sandakan as this place is in memory of all those in the Death March a walk from here to Ranau during the second world war. If googled is accurate the walk from Sandakan to Ranau is about 219KM imagine you gotta walk for more than a day just to reach Ranau.
some of the remainders that were not destroy can be found in the park
Boiler, Alternator and Excavator
Concrete Water Tanks used in Prisoner of War (POW) camp.
Sandakan Memorial park now remains as a memorable place for all especially to surviving families and friends who had someone sacrifice during the death march. It’s only takes about 15 – 20 minutes to walk the entire park. The park is a recreational park now for local residents some come here doing their evening walks or jogs as well just relaxing in the quiet park.
