Foundation of India Gate, memorial of Indian soldiers, founded by Duke of Connaught
The sandstone arch has often been compared to Paris' Arc de Triomphe. Standing forty-two metres high, Memorial Arch was built to honour the brave men who died in WWI and the Third Anglo-Afghan War. The monument bears the name of over 13,516 soldiers among the 80,000 who died in those wars.
