The Maynamati War Cemetery is a war burial ground and a commemoration in Comilla, Bangladesh for Second World War graves from adjacent territories amid the war. Before the war Maynamati was a village of a couple of dozen cottages, however amid the war a substantial military camp was built up there.
It was found necessary to transfer also graves from small cemeteries at Dacca, Faridpur, Paksay, Saidpur, Santahan and Sirajgany, where they could not be maintained. The burial ground was begun by the Army and spread out by the battalion design. It is overwhelmed by a little level finished slope delegated with indigenous blooming and evergreen trees. Between the passageway and this slope lie the Christian graves, and on its most distant side are the Muslim graves. On a porch about most of the way up the slope, confronting the passage, stands the Cross of Sacrifice, and on the opposite side a sanctuary investigates the Muslim graves to a tree-confined perspective of the field past.
After reaching at Comilla Sadar Upazila, one can take rickshaw and go to West forezpur to visit this place.
