The Bali Bombings Memorial is a stone sculpture on Horseguards Road in Westminster featuring a curved wall with a marble globe. Into this globe are carved 202 doves, each one representing a person who died in the attacks.
The memorial was unveiled in 2006 by Prince Charles and the Duchess of Camilla to honor victims of the 2002 terrorist attacks in Bali. It was built several years after the attacks and has served as a place of remembrance ever since.
The names of all victims are carved into the memorial wall, with those from Britain positioned in the center. Visitors from around the world come to this spot to remember those who were lost.
The memorial sits across from St James Park near the entrance of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office building on Clive Steps. Access is wheelchair-friendly, making it easy for all visitors to pay their respects.
The memorial records the ages of the 28 British citizens who died, preserving their personal stories within the broader commemoration. These details transform it from a simple list of names into something more human and memorable.
