A war memorial with graves and a giant statue to the unknown soldier (that resembles Sam Nujoma). Designed and built by an North Korean firm, the Soviet aesthetic does show. Few visitors; the restaurant and toilets seem perpetually closed and the exhibition halls are empty.
Heroes' Acre is an official war memorial of the Republic of Namibia. Built into the uninhabited hills 10 kilometres (6 mi) south of the city centre of Windhoek, Heroes' Acre opened on 26 August 2002. It was created to "foster a spirit of patriotism and nationalism, and to pass [this] to the future generations of Namibia".

Hiking, biking, birding, wildlife viewing. Security present during day, but don't go after dark.
