A measured one mile walkway for Peace, alongside the river in Memorial Park, Hamilton. The Peace Mile links the city of Hamilton with the global family of Sri Chinmoy Peace Blossoms, inspiring and significant places which foster the cause of Peace and kindle the flame of hope in our hearts and minds.

This stone memorial marks the Hamilton City peace mile.

In 1985 Sri Chinmoy, with the then Mayor of Oxford, inaugurated the first "Sri Chinmoy Peace Mile", which is a measured mile in Cutteslowe Park, Oxford, giving joggers something against which to measure their progress. There are now several "Peace Miles" around the world.</p
