    US War Memorial

    As it leaves Honiara, Skyline Drive overlooks the Mataniko River, providing a breathtaking view of village life below it. Enjoy it from the US War Memorial, a compound of marble slabs bearing detailed descriptions of battles fought during the Guadalcanal campaign. It was unveiled on 7 August 1992, the 50th anniversary of the US beach landings. It's a steep 30-minute walk up from Mendana Ave.
