Cemeteries with Unique Architecture and History
Here is a compilation of cemeteries with unique architecture and history around the world.
Chichicastenango Cemetery, Guatemala
Chichicastenango is a Mayan traditional cemetery with hundreds of vibrant tombstones. The graves have symbolic colors: white represents purity, turquoise is for protection, yellow represents the sun?s life force while others are usually the favorite color of the deceased. The colorful architecture of the graves aims to encourage the living with the inevitability of death. However, these tombs are for rent. So, if a family cannot pay rent, the remains of the dead are exhumed and transferred to a mass grave.
