A garden set up on the Yarkon Park lawns to commemorate Tel Aviv residents who fell in the Israeli wars.

Inside the garden are pillars of granite, the head of which is carved with names that fall in wars. The pillars are divided into woods according to the Israeli wars, with different type of wood in different groves.
