Pacific fleet Glory Memorial, Memorial complex at Korablebnaya Naberezhnaya in Vladivostok, Russia.
The Pacific Fleet Glory Memorial sits along the Ship Embankment and includes multiple monuments dedicated to naval personnel and maritime achievements. The site spreads along the waterfront, allowing you to walk among different memorials and view them from various angles.
The memorial was built in 1982 and gained official protection as a regional cultural site in 1991. This recognition marks when the region formally acknowledged the importance of its Pacific naval heritage.
The place reveals how maritime traditions remain central to Vladivostok's identity and local pride. You can observe through the monuments how the community honors its connection to the sea and naval heritage.
The site is easy to reach from Vladivostok's waterfront area and sits in an active part of the city. Visit during daytime when natural light clearly illuminates the monuments and the embankment walk is most pleasant.
A World War II submarine, the S-56, is displayed as part of the site and you can walk inside it. This gives you a rare chance to experience how cramped submarine quarters were and how sailors actually worked in such spaces.
