    The Cemetery was started during the Second World War for burials from the several military hospitals posted in the area. Later, other graves were brought in by the Army Graves Service. There are now 486 Commonwealth servicemen of the Second World War buried or commemorated in this cemetery. Of these, 25 burials are unidentified. The cemetery also contains 24 Chinese war graves, and two non-war graves. The place is quite peaceful and beautiful.

    This is a well maintained cemetery relating to be the Second World War (1939-1945). Here lies buried around 500 personals from the army and airforce who lost their lives during the war. A visit to this cemetery makes one realize the negative effects of a war which leads to the loss of life.

    Resting place of World WarII brave soldiers. This place have historical significance but least known. Take a walk along the graves of those brave hearts who sacrificed their life for the country. With soldiers as young as 22 years being martyred here you will feel weak at heart. The place is well groomed with lush green grasses and beautiful flowers. It's very peaceful and calm. One can spend a hot summer day here in the shades of the huge trees around.

    Well maintained war cemetery in the midst of busy city. Roads are narrow. 11 numbers Japanese cemetery were taken back to country in 2012. At present more than 500 graves are situated here. Visiting hr is from 9am to 5 pm (May to Oct) & 9am to 4 pm (Nov to Apr). Note; there are only two war cemeteries in Assam, thats in Guwahati and Digboi.

    Gauhati, the capital city of the state of Assam in North East India is on the Eastern side of the River Brahmaputra some 600 kilometres east of Calcutta. It is best reached by air either from Delhi or Calcutta. The war cemetery is in the residential area of Silpukhuri on Navagraha Road, leading to Navagraha Hindu Temple which is situated on the hill top past the war cemetery.
