Inside the memorial are four beautiful gardens, which are the Australian garden, the English garden, the Borneo Garden and the Contemplation Garden and pool, where the list of all the soldiers who lost their lives are engraved on the wall, as a symbol of their courage, contribution and ultimately sacrifice during the war.
