Symbol of Bangladesh Nation

The National Memorial  at Savar Dhaka in the Bangladesh. It is a symbol of the nation’s respect for the martyrs of the War of Liberation . It is built with concrete, but made of blood. The National Memorial stands 150 feet tall, but every martyr it stands for stands so much taller. It is an achievement the dimensions of which can be measured, but it stands for an achievement, which is immeasurable . It stands upright for the millions of martyrs who laid down their lives so that we may stand upright, in honour and dignity , amongst the nation of the world.

Most prominently visible is the 150 feet tower  that stands on a base measuring 130 feet wide. There is actually a series of 7 towers that rise by stages to a height of 150 feet . The foundation was laid on the first anniversary of the Victory Day.  There is actually a plan to build huge complex in several phases. The entire complex will cover an area of 126 acres . The plan of this complex includes a mosque, a library and a museum. The relics of the liberation war will be kept in the museum. They will ever remind our countrymen and all who would come to visit the museum of the valiant struggle to all oppressor that the weapons of freedom need not be very big, & that oppression will always be defeated. The will of people prevails, for man is born to be free.
