The monument of Tsunami disaster

There are places to relax in the area. You can enjoy the view of ocean and sunset here. The monument is not very fancy and is quite small than what I imagined. But its a good place to visit once.

The Tsunami Moment is a freestanding memorial to the victims of the devastating 2004 tsunami, located in Boduthakurufaanu Magu in southeast Malé. The tranquil location is perfect to reflect upon the events of the fateful day, and is frequented by history enthusiasts and kin of the victims. The beach nearby is a popular surfing spot too.The tsunami that struck the Indian Ocean on the 24th of December claimed the lives of 74 Maldivians, and the Tsunami Monument is a monument marvel that stands as a beacon of hope after tragedy. The 20 steel spheres encircling the monument symbolize the atolls of the country, while the rising pillars stand for the waves of the tsunami. The rods of the structure pay homage to the victims of the disaster and the names of the 74 victims are carved on the edifice.

Very beautiful place but it needs new decoration and design in the area overall I love the place

A symbol of the memory of Tsunami. Just beside the ferry jetty of viligilli island. One can spend time here who are in male to visit or before going to viligili Island.

Its an unique structure.

This is a nice place for an outing with a friend or family. This Tsunami Monument was originally erected in Henveiru Lonuziyaaraiykolhu area. It was there for many years. However, it has been moved from there to the current location, to make way for the bridge.

It is a fantastic monument made of steel to remember people died in tsunami in 2004.

This is a area in the coastal part where people can freely Come, sit, relax and leave. They have managed well for tourists.

good place for a photo shoot and have a nice walk. view is also very nice from here. u may experience the noise from the boats

nothing special but people here just think this is extraordinary

Small monument with a small garden beautifully developed.

Nothing much to see here. There is a mini park with some seats and pathway around the area for a short distance stroll.

Its a good place for dates at night if u dont mind the boats that pass by and waste managing place on the side. The place on its own is beautiful.

Not maintained properly...but the location is good.

Not a worthy place to go in Male.

Tsunami Monument honors the victims of a 2004 tsunami that claimed the lives of more than 100 people, destroyed countless buildings, and left nearly two-thirds of Male flooded in the aftermath. The spiraling monument stands on the edge of the sea in memory of those who were affected by the tragedy. Ponder the incredible power of nature as you look out over the sobering memorial and the waters beyond. Plan my day in Male using traveler tips and tourist information provided by Inspirock.

Catch the sunset here, must visit when you were in Male

A neat quiet place by the seaside.

At sunset this place is really amazing

It was a nice walk all the way there. Just a monument and there are no signages, so you may not know what it is unless you are looking for it. Good to visit nonetheless, if you want to show some respect.

The monument represents 2003 tsunami which hit the county causing so much destruction and lost many lives.

a palce built in the memory of the Maldivians who lost their life on the Tsunami disaster.

The monument is fine but not creative, too many smokers and it is very polluted since it is right next to the jetty which also makes it very noisy. Tourist should not go there because its a waste of time.

Nice place to sit down and think for a minute about this disaster. Worth knowing the symbolism of the monument.

you can go and sit down to enjoy the breathtaking view of sunset

Nice place to hangout in the evening with kids. The monument is made in remembrance of the victims of the tsunami in maldives
