EDITORS COMMENTS
The Australia and New Zealand Monument in Port Said, Egypt, stands as a poignant reminder of the significant role played by the Australian and New Zealand forces during World War One. Located at the northern entrance of the Suez Canal, this commemorative monument honors the thousands of troops who passed through Port Said on their way to the battlefields of the Dardanelles and the Western Front. During the early 20th century, Port Said served as a crucial transit point for the Allied forces heading to the Middle East and Europe. The ANZAC troops, known for their bravery and resilience, made their way through this bustling port city, leaving an indelible mark on its history. The monument, dating back to the 1920s, is a testament to the strong bond between Egypt and the two countries. Inscribed on its base are the words "Australia and New Zealand," flanked by the emblems of both nations. The monument's design is reminiscent of ancient Egyptian architecture, reflecting the cultural fusion that took place during this period. As the sun sets over the Mediterranean Sea, the monument casts a long shadow, evoking memories of the past and the sacrifices made by the brave men and women who served their countries during World War One. The Australia and New Zealand Monument in Port Said serves as a symbol of unity, friendship, and shared history between Egypt and the two nations.
