★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Hong Kong Veterans Memorial Wall is situated between a busy road and Rideau River. The monument itself looks solemn, decent and clean. The natural landscapes and wildlife surrounding it are also interesting to observe.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very moving memorial to a horrible passage in the lives of many brave Canadians. The backstory of the monument is itself a tale of struggle and injustice. A beautiful worthwhile visit for any student of history of spectator of heroism.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A memorial wall with all the names of the Canadian warriors defended Hong Kong in 1941.
For me as a Hongkonger, this means much more than just a wall with names, but a reminder that we shall never forget those who helped to protect our city.
For all Hong Kong travellers who come to Ottawa, drop by and spend 10 minutes to read through the names.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A unique style of monument, and excellent it has names of all Canadian troops involved, showing who died in the initial days of occupation and who died in captivity.
A long way from the national cenotaph, and sort of tacked on the side of the road. A little sad that those abandoned by their government to fight a hopeless battle were forgotten again when time came to approve a memorial.
