Embassy Park Presidential Burial Site, commonly referred to as Embassy Park or Embassy Memorial Park, is a national monument in Lusaka, Zambia. It serves as the official burial place for the country's presidents and is a site of immense historical and cultural significance.[1] Designated as a National Monument in 2009,[2][3] Embassy Park is also known to be a symbol of Zambia's political and social heritage.
