Honeymoon: Recoleta Cemetary

Page 1 | Page 2




This large, new tomb belongs to someone who died at 21.










Not sure if this one is in disrepair or just artful disarray.


Here you can see in to one of the altars over the casket.


Evita's tomb.


All but one of these plaques is for Eva Peron; the others (to the left of the door) are for other family members.






This was one of the prettiest corners of the cemetery.


For those who want to be buried in the cemetery but don't quite have the resources for an elaborate mausoleum, these niches are available.




Perhaps eventually there'll be another row of tombs down the middle of this walkway.




We're not sure how brand-new mausoleums end up sandwiched between old ones (as could be seen all over the place) but apparently, if someone's maintenance fees are not paid, they can be evicted.


One wall of the cemetery, which stretches for several city blocks.


Another wall of the cemetery.
