American Memorial Park


American Memorial Park honors the American and Marianas people who gave their lives during the Marianas Campaign of World War II. At the park, memorials stand in tribute to the courage and sacrifice of the US Servicemen and Chamorro and Carolinian civilians who were killed in the battles between the United States and Japan that took place on Saipan, Tinian, and the Philippine Sea in 1944.

The park is centrally located along the western shoreline of Saipan, adjacent to downtown Garapan. From airport, proceed north on Airport Road (Tun Herman Pan Highway) until the road ends at Monsignor Guerrero Road (Highway 16). Turn left and continue until the road ends at Beach Road. Turn right until the road ends at the American Memorial Park Mall. Turn left onto Micro Beach Road. The parking lot is on the right.
