Pacific War Memorial

We were given 40 minutes to see the place. Corregidor has been frequently visited by war veterans along with their families and friends because of the place 's history.

Behind the Pacific War Memorial is the sculpture known as the Eternal Flame of Freedom and in front is the Filipino-American Friendship Park.
