Andaman Cellular Jail, a small review


A friend of me had recently visited Andaman and shared information about site seeing experience and some useful tips. In that a very interesting thing to know about is the Cellular jail in Andaman. Though it was constructed to arrest the freedom fighters, now the new look of the jail attracts the visitors and had become a good tourist spot. Lot of visitor’s visit this place since it is an icon for the sacrifices of the freedom fighters for Independence.

The architecture of this jail is unique British style, and looks like a cycle spokes with the seven wings. It has around 700 cells, and the center building is the place where the jailers used to watch the entire jail. It was constructed with the bricks bought from Myanmar. You could now see the new statue’s which tells the harassment in the jail. Apart from this there is also a statue’s kept for the fighters who have sacrificed their lives there in the jail.

A model of the building architect is also available in the jail museum, also the hanging room and the rope makes us to cry thinking about the sacrifices of our leaders.
