The US Embassy Memorial Garden, also known as August 7th Memorial Park, is the site of the former US Embassy bombed in 1998. It is located between Moi and Haile Selassie Avenues in downtown Nairobi. It is a minimalistic well-kept garden with a remembrance gallery featuring antiquities, testimonials and data from the day of the bombing.
The August 7th Memorial Park is frequently visited by people who wish to pay their regards to those who lost their lives during the attack. One can also watch a short film here that depicts the events of 7 August 1998. In addition, a Memorial Wall contains the names of those who died that day. The garden houses a small recreation centre generally used by locals as a relaxing spot.
