This show is very popular among tourists visiting these islands.Cellular Jail
The Cellular Jail, declared a National Memorial, is located at Port Blair and has stood as a mute witness to the most brutal and barbaric atrocities meted out to national freedom fighters who were incarcerated in this jail. Completed in 1906, the jail acquired the name "Cellular" because it was entirely made up of individual cells for solitary confinement. It originally was a seven-block structure with three stories and a central tower acting as its fulcrum, comprising honeycomb-like corridors. This jail, now a place of pilgrimage for all freedom-loving people, draws everyone down memory lane to the years of the freedom struggle. The Jail Museum is open from 9:00 AM to 12:00 noon and from 1:30 PM to 4:45 PM.
