Week 37 - RIP
Taken at Mount Auburn cemetery. This cemetery is a 175 year old 175 acre cemetery, famous for its historical importance and beautiful landscapes. Usually the word cemetery reminds us of a scary place only for the dead. But mount Auburn cemetery redefines cemetery. Mount Auburn is a beautifully landscaped place, with around 5000 trees belonging to 630 species, thousands of shrubs and herbaceous plants, weaving through 175 acres of hills, dells, ponds, woodlands and clearings.
One of the founders believed that burying and commemorating the dead was best done in a tranquil and beautiful natural setting.
Around 80,000 people are buried here and cremates around 900 people annually.
This cemetery is one place you would die to rest forever.
