0:00today we're going to be talking about
0:02the places you should go and the things
0:03that you should see if you're going to
0:05era for one
0:07[Music]
0:19day hey guys welcome to another video
0:22another video back here in my little
0:23Studio office space and that's because
0:26today we're doing a video All About epra
0:28in a day now let's just touch on that
0:31first the pronunciation of ipra in this
0:33video I'm going to pronounce it Ira but
0:36there's lots of different ways that it
0:37gets pronounced and different ways that
0:39it has been historically pronounced
0:41you'll often hear it pronounced Eeps or
0:44by the locals EPA back during the Great
0:47War the local British tomies there in
0:49that area often would have called it
0:51wipers but for the sake of this video
0:54I'm going to go with probably one of the
0:55more sort of widely recognized
0:57pronunciations which is ipra kind of EP
1:00and then like r on the end IA the last
1:03piece is very sort of mildly pronounced
1:06so that's what I'm going to go with
1:07people going tell me I'm wrong that's
1:09totally fine so today we're going to
1:11talk about era in a day if you're going
1:14to go to Ira for one day what are the
1:17places that you should include into your
1:19itinerary we did a video like this about
1:22the S and it was quite popular and a lot
1:24of people messaged me um some in the
1:26comments and some outside of that
1:27through Facebook Instagram just to say
1:29like thank you and they found it useful
1:31so I thought it might be useful to do
1:33one on era as well now this is just
1:35going to be a few spots that I recommend
1:37places that I think are good to go they
1:39give you kind of an overview of what you
1:41can see when you're in that area if you
1:44go to the prent you could spend a lot of
1:46days there you could look at so many
1:48different sites so many fascinating
1:51sites and a lot of them you could go
1:53there briefly and have a little look or
1:54you could walk around them for 3 4 hours
1:57and so this really is a snapshot but if
2:00you've only got one day what can you do
2:01to get the most of your trip and
2:03hopefully that's what this video will be
2:05useful for so a few things to position
2:07similar to the Som video I'm assuming
2:10that if you're traveling over there you
2:11have access to a car that's going to be
2:13fairly important to really get you
2:15around the different sites nice and
2:16easily without having to worry about
2:19public transport I'm also assuming that
2:21maybe you're going to be staying in the
2:23center of town so we're going to start
2:24our trip in the center of era and I'm
2:27assuming that you've got the ability to
2:29stay around for the whole day right into
2:32the evening now the reason I say that is
2:34qu we're going to end our day's tour
2:37with a really important part of it which
2:39is going to happen at 8:00 in the
2:41evening lots of you will already know
2:43what I'm talking about but we'll save
2:44that for later in the video because I do
2:46think it's one of the most important
2:48things and one of the most powerful
2:49experiences you can have during your
2:51visit to era okay so let's start our day
2:54we're kind of assuming that we're
2:55probably starting around sort of 9:00 in
2:57the morning you're probably staying
2:58somewhere in the C center of town so the
3:00first thing we're going to do just take
3:02a short drive not too far probably about
3:047 8 minutes Drive something like that a
3:07little bit north to an area called
3:08boosinger and we're going to go to the
3:10Essex Farm Cemetery now this is a
3:14cemetery that was used from 1915 through
3:16and also in 1917 as well but it's a
3:20cemetery that has a couple of really
3:21interesting things about it this
3:24cemetery is an area that was used as an
3:26advanced dressing station it sat just a
3:28little bit behind the British lines in
3:311915 and it is here at the cemetery in
3:34May 1915 when a famous Canadian by the
3:38name of John McCrae wrote the poem in
3:40Flanders Fields really fascinating spot
3:44and when you go to the cemetery just to
3:46kind of the back left they have some of
3:49the bunkers that is the area that was
3:51used as the advanced dressing station
3:53now those have been um kind of recreated
3:55slightly they've been modernized a
3:57little bit with some concrete um
3:58compared to what they would have been at
4:00the time but they're still original that
4:01is where they were that is the right
4:03sight and it is around that area where
4:05John McCrae was working when he was
4:08inspired to write his poem in Flanders
4:10Fields if you go there you'll see
4:12they've got an information plaque about
4:13it and that's really interesting and
4:15it's incredible just to stand there and
4:17have that experience that's where he was
4:19that's when he had those emotions that
4:21led to him to write that poem now I did
4:24do a video about the cemeterian about
4:26the poem I'm going to link it up the top
4:27here if you want to go check that one
4:28out but maybe make a note of it what's
4:30the rest of this video then you can go
4:32back and check that one afterwards now
4:34of course it's well worth having a look
4:35around the cemetery in general there's a
4:37couple of memorials here at the cemetery
4:40a couple of bits of information um but
4:42also a couple of interesting Graves and
4:44one which I would definitely recommend
4:45you go to is the grave of Valentine Joe
4:49strudwick he was only 15 years old when
4:52he was killed in this area and he was
4:54one of the youngest soldiers to be
4:55killed on the Western Front it's a very
4:58well decorated grave when you go there
5:00lots of school trips and stuff like that
5:01come to it but it's one that you should
5:04visit if you go to ess6 farm Cemetery
5:06you definitely want to take the time to
5:08visit that grave okay so we're finishing
5:10up at Essex Farm probably only going to
5:12been there for for maybe an hour maximum
5:14probably a little bit less than actually
5:16I'd say half an hour is enough time to
5:17have a little walk around and see what's
5:19going on and from here we're going to
5:20take another probably less than 10
5:22minutes drive over to langar and we're
5:25going to the German Cemetery at langar
5:29so some of you who are familiar with the
5:31area reapa will know why I've included
5:33this cemetery and some people might be
5:34thinking who it's surprising to include
5:36a German Cemetery um during a one-day
5:39visit to era but I think it's a really
5:41important place to go langar German
5:44Cemetery um has the graves of more than
5:4744,000 German soldiers
5:5144,000 and just over half of those are
5:53buried in one communal grave um like a
5:57mass grave is often described as but
5:59there's a little bit more to it than
6:01that it's a fascinating cemetery and one
6:04that I really recommend you go to if you
6:06want to go to EA and learn about the
6:08history around there uh it's important
6:11to recognize the German sacrifice that
6:13also took place there during the war of
6:16course there were huge masses hundreds
6:19of thousands of casualties in this area
6:21on both sides but the Germans suffered
6:24tremendously here as well and by going
6:26to langar cemetery I think you really
6:28understand or start to have the feeling
6:31of the impact that it had on both sides
6:33there's some stuff to see here as well
6:35you can take a walk around towards the
6:37kind of back sort of right of the
6:38cemetery you'll see a series of bunkers
6:41that is pretty much where the German
6:42front line came through um during a
6:45period of the war here in
6:471917 uh but but as well as that there is
6:49just a lot of history here and in fact
6:51there's some World War II related
6:53history at langar as well the famous
6:56Austrian with a little mustache during
6:58World War II or in the earlier part of
7:00World War II he actually visited langar
7:03Cemetery himself and used it for some
7:06propaganda photos and stuff you can find
7:08those if you jump on Google I also made
7:10a video here at langar which talks a
7:12little bit about that again I'm going to
7:14link that one up the top here so that's
7:17our fascinating visit to the langar
7:19cemetery and from here we're going to
7:21take another little drive again probably
7:22about 10 minutes and we are going down
7:25to a commonwealth Cemetery this time
7:27we're going to the famous
7:30OT Cemetery so the OT Cemetery here at
7:34tcot you'll be visiting the largest
7:37Commonwealth grave cemetery in the world
7:40and it is a site that you absolutely
7:43must go to if you go to Ira you you go
7:46there and it is one of those places
7:47where you can really feel the weight of
7:50the history and what happened in that
7:51area and what that Cemetery represents a
7:55couple of logistical bits before we go
7:56into the cemetery itself when you kind
7:58of arrive there
8:00depending on how you've got it into your
8:01Google Maps you might arrive at the
8:03front where there's kind of sort of the
8:04archway gate or it might take you to the
8:06visitor center um at the back The
8:09Visitor Center at the back is the best
8:10spot for you to go to you can park
8:12easily there there's some toilets and
8:14stuff there as well if you need to use
8:15those and The Visitor Center is up there
8:17at the back as well now you can walk
8:19through into the cemetery from the back
8:22you kind of come through um sort of by
8:24the memorial to the missing and we'll
8:25talk about that in just a minute but if
8:27it's your first time going there I would
8:29actually recommend walking around the
8:31outside and come in the front gate you
8:34can't necessarily partk by the front
8:36gate I mean you can fit a couple of cars
8:37there but it's quite tight but it's
8:39worth it because this cemetery is kind
8:41of on a slope and when you walk through
8:43that front gate you really see the
8:46impact of what that cemetery is about it
8:49is absolutely huge there's more than
8:5111,000 burials here and more than 8,000
8:56of those are unidentified that in itself
8:58speaks volume volumes to the type of
9:00fighting that went on here and the awful
9:03loss of of men into the ground into the
9:05mud who who weren't identified when they
9:08were later buried there's also the
9:10memorial to the missing which is the
9:12wall along the back of the tcot cemetery
9:15it's got the names of more than 33,000
9:17men who are missing um again from from
9:21this area now there's another big
9:23Memorial to the missing in EA Town
9:25Center which we'll get to and I'll talk
9:28then about sort of what's the difference
9:29between that one and the one here at
9:31tcot now when you come to tcot there's
9:33lots of different bits here that are
9:34well worth looking around you can see
9:36some of the original bunkers which still
9:39sit in the cemetery those were German
9:41bunkers defensive bunkers that were
9:45attacked by the um the Commonwealth
9:46forces here specifically the Australians
9:49as they pushed through this area in
9:511917 when you walk around it's well
9:53worth getting on to sort of Google and
9:55stuff before you go to the cemetery and
9:57in fact I made a video all about
9:59Cemetery again I'll link it up the top
10:01right here because you can visit the
10:03graves of several recipients of the
10:05Victoria Cross when you're here at Ty
10:07cot and it's really worth doing that and
10:09and reading some of those stories of
10:11those men whilst you're by the graves
10:13and again the memorial to the missing
10:15there's some Victoria Cross winners on
10:17on the memorial as well and you can go
10:19and read about those whilst you're there
10:21and and it's worth just having a wand
10:23around and just really kind of taking in
10:25the amount of names that are there um on
10:28that wall
10:30at the back is the visitor center well
10:32worth taking a look into the visitor
10:33center there's some really cool
10:35information in there I think it changes
10:36sometimes but but ultimately they're
10:38talking um about some of the men who are
10:40buried or commemorated at tcot Cemetery
10:44so it's really worth checking it out now
10:47here at tcot you're kind of starting to
10:49work your way around that EA salent at
10:52this stage we're kind of into sort of
10:53the kind of northeastern part of that
10:55bulge around era and out here we're in
10:58the direction of passendale often
11:01referred to as passionale the battle of
11:04passionale the third battle of epra in
11:071917 it's through this area where that
11:10part of the battle was fought and so
11:13where we're going to go next is actually
11:15just slightly further Northeast from
11:17here at tcot towards the village of
11:20passendale now if we had a little bit
11:21more time I'd actually really recommend
11:23walking this because it's a fascinating
11:25walk but actually going to drive it's
11:27only about three four minutes Drive and
11:29as you drive
11:31Northeast you're going to be heading
11:33towards the Canadian Memorial of
11:35passendale if you type into your Google
11:37Maps or you sat have um passendale
11:40Canadian Memorial it's going to take you
11:41to the right spot uh and it's just about
11:43a three or 4 minute drive but when you
11:46drive this three or 4 minutes take your
11:48time drive slow and have a look out the
11:50window as you go because you are driving
11:52through the area that really would have
11:55represented the essence of what that
11:58battle of passionale was about this is
12:01where that mud was this is where the
12:03water was the flooding the absolute
12:05Quagmire that these men fought their way
12:08through and as you move up towards the
12:10Canadian Memorial you're into the area
12:12where the Canadians made their final
12:14push towards the village of passionale
12:18itself now again I've made a video about
12:20this one I made a video where I did walk
12:22this area and I recommend checking that
12:24one out I found it really interesting
12:26walking it and hopefully you'll you'll
12:27enjoy checking that out as well again
12:29I'm going to link that up the top just
12:31here so when you arrive at the Canadian
12:34Memorial you're in an area that was
12:36known as Crest Farm it was captured by
12:38the Canadian fourth division at the end
12:40of October
12:421917 now if you park up your car here
12:44and walk into where the memorial is and
12:46you look towards the village of
12:49passendale you can see the church spy in
12:52the middle of the village and what
12:53you're looking across here is that final
12:56piece of ground that the Canadians had
12:57to push through in in order to capture
13:00that final part of the village this
13:03short distance that you're looking
13:04across here took those men nearly 10
13:07days to fight their way across that's
13:09how thick the mud was and how bad the
13:11defenses were and how heavy the defenses
13:14that they were going against were 10
13:17days to get across just this small
13:19section you'll also see the Canada gate
13:22Memorial there this is one of two
13:24memorials there is one of these um in
13:26Canada which kind of represents the
13:29final steps that those Canadian soldiers
13:31took on Canadian ground before they
13:33boarded the ships to head over um to
13:36Europe to fight uh in the Great War and
13:40this gate represents the final steps
13:42that many of those men took as they went
13:44into that attack towards pendal and of
13:47course thousands of them never returned
13:50a really moving Memorial actually that
13:52and and won this really worthwhile I'm
13:54taking the time to have a wand around
13:56and and check it out on this visit we're
13:58not going to head into the village of
13:59passendale itself mainly because we've
14:01only got one day and we've got an awful
14:03lot more to see but if you had a bit
14:04more time you definitely could do so
14:07depending on how long you've taken to
14:08have a look around the site so far we're
14:10probably getting into like a late
14:11lunchtime by this point and that's okay
14:14cuz we're going to go somewhere for
14:15lunch right now we're going to take you
14:16guys on probably about a 10 12 minute
14:19drive something like that I don't know
14:21for sure I should have looked up these
14:22Drive times but I'm guessing it's about
14:23that long down towards uh the H crater
14:28Museum
14:29now they have a really fascinating
14:31Museum there and we're going to touch on
14:33that in just a second but they also have
14:35a really nice little cafe there I've
14:36eaten lunch there a couple of times
14:38myself definitely recommend it that's a
14:40great place to have a little stop off
14:42have some food have a drink use the
14:44toilet facilities and we're also going
14:46to take a look in the museum and also
14:48the cemetery just over the road the hook
14:51crater Cemetery now the museum here at H
14:54is not a huge Museum it's um a museum
14:57that actually is part of a private
14:58collection
14:59but it's probably one of the best
15:02museums in the era area at least I I
15:04believe now there's lots of other
15:06museums as well there's the INF Flanders
15:07Fields Museum in the center of town uh
15:10there's also the passendale museum um
15:12but I really like the hug Crum Museum
15:15and it's also one that's good to visit
15:18uh when we've only got one day cuz it
15:19takes a little bit less time to walk
15:22around it's not too expensive you pay a
15:24little fee um get your lunch first then
15:27pay a little fee and go have a wand
15:28around the mum Museum they've got such a
15:30great collection of stuff in there and
15:32I'm somebody who loves a museum where
15:34you're kind of looking at artifacts
15:36rather than just reading information and
15:38this Museum definitely is one of those
15:41they have so much stuff packed into a
15:43small space they also have some bits in
15:46there um that are actually artifacts
15:48related to some of the men who are
15:49buried in the hug crater Cemetery over
15:52the road so after you finish visiting
15:54the museum definitely step over the road
15:57to have a look in the cemetery the
15:59Cemetery here has nearly 6,000 burials
16:01about 3 and a half thousand of those are
16:03unidentified now this is an area um that
16:06was fought over very heavily there was
16:09lots of fighting here in the earlier
16:10part of the war and in fact this is the
16:13site where the Germans used
16:15flamethrowers for the first time against
16:18British troops in
16:201915 it's an area that had lots of
16:22fighting was captured by the British in
16:25[Music]
16:261917 it's an area that was recap
16:28captured by the Germans during their
16:30spring offensive in 1918 it's an area
16:33that changed hands a fair few times and
16:35lots of fighting in this area but it's a
16:37really fascinating cemetery and one
16:40which I really recommend taking the time
16:41to have a wand around and have a look
16:44quick recommendation here um Paul Reed
16:46at the old front line he's done a video
16:48where he walks a bit of this area and
16:50talks about the flamethrower attack and
16:52stuff like that really recommend
16:54checking that one out um I'll try and
16:56get that one into the link in the
16:57description below because he uh is
17:00somebody who just knows so much about
17:01this area and I certainly found that
17:03video interesting so it's well worth
17:05checking that one out okay we're
17:07probably midaf afternoon by this stage
17:09so we're going to take about another
17:1010-minute drive to go to our kind of
17:12last visit around the Salan for today
17:15apart from heading into the center of
17:17town we're going to head down towards
17:19Hill 60 now there is a little car park
17:22here by Hill 60 I think actually if you
17:24put Hill 60 car park into your Google
17:27Maps it takes you to the right spot this
17:31is a really interesting site uh where
17:33we're going to take a little walk around
17:34probably a good sort of half hour maybe
17:3545 minutes walk around this area uh cuz
17:38it really is fascinating you're going to
17:40take a park up there and head into have
17:42a look around Hill 60 now Hill 60 is a
17:46fascinating place just to walk around
17:49they've built um kind of like a
17:51boardwalk there and it's really cool to
17:53have a a walk through and along and
17:55they're actually marked on those boards
17:57um at different point points where the
17:59British front lines were and where the
18:01German front lines were and you can see
18:03here how incredibly close together they
18:06were that's something which you really
18:08realize on this area when you walk
18:09through here is how close those front
18:12lines were to each other now again this
18:16is an area that had fighting right
18:17through the war there was fighting here
18:19in the earlier part of the war in the
18:20middle of the war at the end of the war
18:22pretty much all of the E salent had
18:25fighting right around it but of course
18:26there were bigger events in different
18:28are at different times and one of the
18:31more famous events around Hill 60 was in
18:351917 when a huge number of Mines were
18:38blown in this area as part of the battle
18:41of meines and in this area Hill 60 the
18:45top part of the hill was pretty much
18:47Blown Away by a huge British mine that
18:51was placed underneath it now it wasn't
18:54just one mine there were a series of
18:55Mines through this area and one of the
18:58they've got here um is the caterpillar
19:01mine Crater where you can walk through
19:04and see the resulting damage of one of
19:07these huge mines it's full of water now
19:10and I'm assuming it's full of water year
19:11round I've never seen it not full of
19:13water so I think it must be the entire
19:15time now but you can really see the side
19:18of that crater and how big that mine was
19:20that exploded there in June
19:231917 there's also some germa bunker
19:26positions when you walk around this area
19:27too and it's an awful lot you can see
19:30it's one that's really worth taking the
19:32time uh to explore and have a look
19:35around Hill 60 and I actually haven't
19:37done a video at Hill 60 um my friend
19:40Chris over vlogging through history has
19:41he's done a really interesting video
19:43over there um so worthwhile checking
19:45that one out and again I will link that
19:47one in the description below so you can
19:49go and see somebody else's video about
19:51Hill 60 so by the time you get to finish
19:54your little walk around the hill 60 area
19:57we're probably going to be into late
19:59afternoon and what I'm going to suggest
20:00at this time is it is time to head back
20:02to your hotel head back to your
20:03accommodation um in E era uh and get
20:07yourself ready for the evening now if
20:09you're an early Diner you might want to
20:11go get some dinner before
20:128:00 otherwise you can go get some
20:14dinner afterwards but we are going to
20:16head down to the menning gate the
20:20menning gate Memorial to the missing for
20:22the last post ceremony which happens at
20:258:00 every single day and it is
20:29something that is such a moving
20:31experience and if you go to E you must
20:33must go to the last post ceremony there
20:36at the menning gate the mening gate
20:38Memorial to the missing has the names of
20:41nearly
20:4255,000 men who were lost during the
20:45Great War and have no known grave now
20:48earlier on at tcot of course we saw the
20:50tcot memorial to the missing so briefly
20:53what's the difference between the two
20:54well there were so many men who were
20:56missing that they had to draw draw the
20:58line they had to arrange a cutof point
21:00at some point for the mening gate so men
21:03who were killed after the 15th of August
21:071917 rather than being named on the
21:09mening gate and named on the ttin cop
21:12Memorial so the mening gate here
21:14represents men um who were killed or or
21:17missing up until the 15th of August
21:201917 casualties from Beyond that are
21:23named on the T cot Memorial so that's
21:25briefly the difference between the two
21:27there's a bit more to it than that but
21:28that gives you the rough summary so here
21:30at the mening gate they have the last
21:32post ceremony it's at 8:00 p.m. uh every
21:35night and they have the um the bugers
21:37out there and they play the last post
21:39and it's such a moving experience now it
21:41gets very busy I have been there on days
21:43when it's actually a fair bit quieter
21:45but I've been there on days when it is
21:47absolutely packed so I actually
21:49recommend getting down there by kind of
21:52at least sort of 7:30 maybe even
21:54slightly earlier than that I've been
21:56there before at sort of 7:00 p.m. and
21:58crowds have starting to to build up um
22:01if you're staying nearby in EA hopefully
22:02you can walk there if not the um square
22:05around the cloth Hall is a good spot to
22:07park and you can head down uh to the
22:10mening gate you're going to be there for
22:12probably about half an hour plus you're
22:14waiting time beforehand um only until
22:16sort of you know 20 past halfast 8
22:18something like that and you'll be be be
22:20done and and and leaving the area um
22:22either before if you get there a lot
22:24earlier or afterwards I really recommend
22:26having a walk around and read some of
22:29the names on the
22:30panels at the point of recording this
22:32video some of the memorial is still
22:34closed off where they've been doing some
22:36um some important uh restoration work
22:40but I believe that's coming to an end so
22:41hopefully very soon you'll be able to
22:43get back and have a real good look
22:45around the memorial and you better see
22:46all the panels and all of the names on
22:49those panels that's the most important
22:50thing the names of those men on those
22:53panels after you finished walking around
22:56and taking in that moving uh ceremony
22:59your your day around EA is pretty much
23:02finished I'm going to recommend you
23:03round off by heading back down to that
23:05square by the cloth Hall there is so
23:07much history in in that square thousands
23:10of Men passed through that area during
23:12the Great War and it's a great spot just
23:14to sit and have a meal I've been to a
23:16few of the restaurants around that
23:17square and had some nice meals there you
23:19can have a drink and think of what
23:21happened in that area think of so many
23:23of the men who passed through that area
23:25to never return the men who are in these
23:27cemeteries who are named on those
23:30memorials I hope you found that video
23:32interesting hopefully that's given you
23:33an idea of what you can do on era in a
23:36day now of course I did miss Lots out we
23:38didn't go to to places like polygon wood
23:41Yorkshire trench have done a video at so
23:44many really cool sites that you can go
23:46to around e that we just simply did not
23:48have time for today Now spoiler alert we
23:51might visit some of those places in my
23:53EA in two days video um but EA in a day
23:56those are the spots that I would
23:57recommend other people might recommend
23:59different ones like I said there's so
24:02much you can do around epra you can head
24:03West to places like poer ring you can uh
24:07do more in the the South where we spent
24:09a little bit of time on on this video
