Lim Bo Seng Memorial, War memorial at Esplanade Park, Singapore.

The Lim Bo Seng Memorial stands as an octagonal pagoda structure made of white marble with a three-tiered bronze roof in central Singapore.

During World War II, Lim Bo Seng led resistance operations against Japanese forces until his capture in 1944, where he remained resolute under torture until his death.

The memorial combines Chinese architectural elements with modern construction materials, representing Singapore's multicultural identity through its design and symbolism.

Located at the junction of Balestier Road and Thomson Road, the memorial receives regular visits from educational groups studying Singapore's World War II history.

The structure holds national monument status as Singapore's sole memorial dedicated to an individual's contributions during World War II.
