What people are saying:
Location Melbourne just outside the city within walking distance.Experience Beautiful structure, great surroundings of the botanical garden, beautiful trees at the entrance great place to click pictures, and if you are interested in the history this is one of the place to be. We were there just to click some pictures but I guess there is more to see and explore at the place. ServiceNo shops around it's within the walking distance from the city surroundings.

Additional Information
Introduction
The National War Memorial of Victoria is a stunning tribute to the Australians who have served in armed conflicts. Its monuments and gardens were first dedicated in 1934, but has changed over the years, and regularly contains new exhibitions. A visit on Remembrance Day (November 11th) is a particularly touching experience: at exactly 11 am, the Ray of Light shines through the roof onto the Stone of Remembrance, illuminating the word "love."

Another awesome Australian war memorial I visited. There is amazing museum, and if you go up you will get amazing view on city for free. I had really great time but because I was there with kids I will need to go there again to enjoy properly because this shrine deserve that. After visiting this place is great idea to make some Anzac biscuits :)
Beautiful tribute to the soldiers of Victoria. We happened to be in the area on Remembrance Day, so visiting the shrine was even more meaningful. Climb up to the top to get a great view of Melbourne.
Gorgeous place to go to learn about Australia's involvement in the world wars. Particularly wonderful to visit in the lead up to Anzac Day.
Not a favorite but I also don''t discourage others to go here. If you are into war history, of course, this is the exact place for you. I did not find this place too stimulating but I''m sure others will or do.
