Anzac Cove
ANZAC Cove is a historic site located on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey, notable for its role during World War I.

The campaign faced strong resistance, leading to significant hardships and loss of life. ANZAC Cove has since become a symbol of national sacrifice and bravery for both Australia and New Zealand, with ANZAC Day, observed on April 25 each year, commemorating those who served and died in military conflicts.
