ROSS ISLAND
Ross Island from distance Ross Island is another beautiful Island near Port Blair. If you stand at the Marine Park, PB, you can see the island. It is a lovely place to spend few hours and learn about the historical importance. Some ruins on the Island Ross Island is located very near to Port Blair City.
The small island with its treasure of ruins in it become the hot tourists spot in the territory. While visiting to this island, we desire to know more and more about Ross Island. Before the independence, the island is the seat of British power and capital of these Andaman Islands from 1858 until 1941 and also the base for the British Administrator of the penal colony in Port Blair In 1941, the Japanese converted the site into POW camp, and built war installations, remnants of which can still be seen. It now stands as a ruin of the bygone days with the old structure almost in debris and the few signs of its colonial glory, such as the Chief Commissioner's house and the Anglican church, are dilapidated and overgrown. A small museum named 'Smritika' holds photographs and the other antiques of the Britishers relevant to these islands.
