Description: This is the Mask of Sorrows built on a hillside above the port of Magadan to commemorate the many lives lost during the Stalin era. Magadan was the port where many poltical prisoners were landed during Stalin's era. These prisoners were sent to work mainly in the labour camps in the gold mining area to the north. They first had to build the 'Road of Bones' - so called because so many people died in its construction.
