After-Life in Punta Arenas (3)
in the cemetery of Punta Arenas, Chile..... the whole cemetery is surrounded by a high wall where the urns of loved ones are kept ... a five storey arrangement here, my linked image has eight storeys .... a truly unusual way of saving space ...

Ich vermute, daß diese Art der Beerdigung von Spanien kommt. Jedenfalls habe ich es dort so ähnlich gesehen.Gelungene Aufnahme,

This way of keeping the urns is a most sensible way. Population in these cities there dont keep much space for the living,- so why should the dead use so much. It is nice, that there is a possibility to decorate the places individually.A very interesting documentation.
Kind regards,
Brigitte

C'est impressionnant !!!il y en a aussi dans les cimetières français... mais beaucoup moins car l'incinération n'est pas habituelle dans notre pays !!
bien vu

At least there is some room for decoration - not just name plates.Andreas

Es ist ein Platzproblem, das stimmt.Aber es bleibt hier jedem doch genügend Raum, um die Nische nach seinem Geschmack auszuschmücken und Lieblingsdinge des Verstorbenen mit auszustellen... LG! a.
