Cellular Jail

Built in 1906, the Cellular Jail was a penal establishment during the times of the British Raj. Today, this is one of the biggest landmarks of the islands. In 1997 it was declared a national monument. The damp and dark jail housed many Indian freedom fighters who fought against the British rule over India. An interesting Light and Sound show in the evenings is something to definitely look out for.

Chatham Saw Mill

Chatham Saw Mill is one of the oldest mills in Asia. Situated on a tiny island which can be reached by a bridge, tourists go here to see logs being unloaded, sorted, cut, planed and finally stored in warehouses to be shipped to the mainland.
