Manila American Cemetery and Memorial

The Manila American Cemetery and Memorial is located in Fort Bonifacio, Metro Manila, within the boundaries of the former Fort William McKinley. It can be reached most easily from the city via Epifano de los Santos Ave. (EDSA) to McKinley Road, then to McKinley Parkway inside the Bonifacio Global City. The Nichols Field Road is the easiest access from Manila International Airport to the cemetery. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.abmc.gov/cemeteries-memorials/pacific/manila-american-cemetery )
The cemetery, or 615,000 square metres in area, is located on a prominent plateau, visible at a distance from the east, south and west.〔 With a total of 17,206 graves, it has the largest number of graves of any cemetery for U.S. personnel killed during World War II and holds war dead from the Philippines and other allied nations.〔 Many of the personnel whose remains are interred or represented were killed in New Guinea, or during the Battle of the Philippines (1941–42) or the Allied recapture of the islands.〔 The headstones are made of marble which are aligned in eleven plots forming a generally circular pattern, set among a wide variety of tropical trees and shrubbery.〔 The Memorial is maintained by the American Battle Monuments Commission.
The cemetery is open daily to the public from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. except December 25 and January 1.〔
Otherwise, this cemetery have an only one Commonwealth War Dead burial in World War I.〔(CWGC: AMERICAN MILITARY CEMETERY, FORT BONIFACIO, MANILA )〕
==General layout==
The entrance to the cemetery is at the far (east) side of the large grassed circle just beyond the military sentinel's post which is at the junction of Rizal Drive and Eighth Avenue . Immediately beyond the gate is the plaza with its circular fountain; at the right is the Visitors' Building. Stretching from the plaza to the memorial is the central mall, which is lined with mahogany trees (''Swietenia macrophylla''). Circular roads leading eastward and westward through the graves area join the straight roads along the edges of the mall.
