enlarge icon

The Çanakkale Sehitleri Aniti (or Çannakale Martyrs Memorial) is the main Turkish memorial at Gallipoli where the Turkish commemoration of the campaign takes place every 18 March. The statue is based on a photograph of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, then Lieutenant-Colonel Mustafa Kemal, looking out over the battlefield from a trench at Anzac in 1915.

Panorama help
Once the movie downloads (about 1-2 mins on a 56k dial-up connection) you can move around inside the image with your mouse pointer, click and drag to explore. If the question mark symbol in the grey bar is highlighted you can click on it to see hotspot links. These are either in the form of roll-over text (an empty circle appears when rolling over) or links to other panoramas (a small globe appears when rolling over). The + and - are to zoom in and out. This panorama requires QuickTime 5 or later to view.
