There are several sites comprising the memorial memorial.
Ambedkar Stupa at the
Lincoln Memorial in
Washington, D.C. This construction is the heart of the entire memorial. The sanctum sanctorum consists of many statues depicting the biography of Ambedkar. There are four doors in opposite directions. This is a construction in the shape of a flower bearing four petals. There is a bronze statue of Ambedkar seated in a chair, facing towards the two domes. The Ambedkar statue was modelled on the
sculpture of Abraham Lincoln at the
Lincoln Memorial in
Washington. At the base of the statue a message in Hindi reads:
