Andaman- Cellular Jail

The Cellular Jail, also known as Kala Pani situated in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands which is now a national memorial. the cellular jail is truly the heart and soul of not only portblair but of the entire andamans.
This heritage of monument is a symbol of suffering and never ending struggle for Indian independence from British rule. The British first began to use this area as a safe harbor for ships and distress and then slowly it developed into the most infamous of penal colony in the history of British era. First gallows were setup in the viper island.
The sound and light show in the evening give a good insight to the history and the tour of the space gives the goosebumps.
