#Cellular Jail
During the British occupation of India, the prisoners were sent to Cellular Jail, to keep them far off from the revolution.
Once in these places, it was very difficult to get out and this led to the death of a number of prisoners. After a brief occupation by the Japanese forces during World War II, the town of Port Blair became the base of the Azad Hind Fauj. The execution rooms, the cells, the torture rooms and different areas of the jail are open for public viewing.
Presently, there are no prisoners and the jail is open to visitors. Inside the compound of the Cellular Jail a well maintained, beautiful garden has been created. There is a light and sound show every day at 5 pm in Hindi and 6 pm in English.
