Notes

Places You'll Visit on the Gallipoli Day Tour

Brighton Beach

Originally planned as the ANZAC landing site, this peaceful beach offers insight into the strategic miscalculations during the Gallipoli Campaign. Today, it's a serene shoreline that invites reflection.

Beach Cemetery

A touching war cemetery where many Australian soldiers who fell during the initial landings on April 25, 1915, are buried. The rows of white headstones against the sea backdrop make it a powerful memorial.

ANZAC Cove

The most iconic site on the Gallipoli Peninsula, ANZAC Cove was the main landing point for Australian and New Zealand troops. It now stands as a sacred place of remembrance with commemorative plaques and breathtaking coastal views.

Ariburnu Cemetery

Set at the northern end of ANZAC Cove, this well-maintained cemetery holds the graves of over 200 soldiers. The site offers a moving tribute to those who fought during the early days of the campaign.

ANZAC Commemorative Site

This ceremonial area hosts dawn services each year on ANZAC Day. It serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and sacrifice of the ANZAC soldiers during the Gallipoli Campaign.

Respect to Mehmetçik Statue

A powerful statue symbolizing the compassion of the Turkish soldier (Mehmetçik), who reportedly carried a wounded enemy soldier to safety during battle. A true representation of humanity amidst warfare.

Lone Pine Australian Memorial

One of the most important Australian sites on the peninsula, Lone Pine marks the site of a fierce battle and honors over 7,000 Australian soldiers who lost their lives during the campaign.

Johnston’s Jolly (Trenches & Tunnels)

An area where you can still see preserved trenches and tunnels used by both Turkish and Allied forces. Walking through this zone provides a rare glimpse into the conditions of trench warfare.

57th Infantry Regiment Turkish Memorial

Dedicated to the entire 57th Turkish Regiment, which famously fought to the last man under orders from Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. This memorial honors their incredible bravery and sacrifice.

The Nek

This narrow ridge was the site of a tragic and ill-fated charge by Australian Light Horse troops. The area is now a somber battlefield memorial highlighting the cost of miscommunication in war.

Chunuk Bair New Zealand Memorial

One of the highest points on the peninsula captured by New Zealand troops. This memorial pays tribute to the role of New Zealand forces in the campaign and offers panoramic views of the Dardanelles.
