Andaman Islands
A British tourist seems to be pondering the past at the cellular jail. Port Blair, Andaman Islands, India. 2011
The cellular jail, a colonial prison built by the British between 1896 and 1906 must be one of the darkest deeds perpetrated by British rule in India. It was used for political dissidents who were shipped here from mainland India. Today, it is both a museum and a memorial with an impressive series of photos, including portraits of all the many freedom fighters who died here.
