Continue to Ariburnu Cemetery and the ANZAC Commemorative Site before enjoying a traditional lunch in Eceabat. In the afternoon, visit the Respect to Mehmetçik Statue, Lone Pine Australian Memorial, Johnston’s Jolly with its preserved trenches and tunnels, the Turkish 57th Infantry Regiment Cemetery, The Nek, and the Chunuk Bair New Zealand Memorial.
