Elmwood cemetary is in my opinion the most beautiful cemetary ever and I've been to alot of cemetarys all across the eastern U.S. It's so pretty. The monuments are magnificent. Some very famous people are buried here. The mosoleums are the best part though. Some of the designs on those things are so intricate it's amazing. Those graves date back to the 1800's. It's amazing to just walk through it and you can feel the history of the place. The best time to walk through it is when it's covered in snow. There's a sad part to though, it also harbors the graves of yellow fever and bubonic plague victoms, alot of them children and infants. Its also has the graves of civil war, WWI and WWII victoms, countless. So although there is the beautiful monumments and mosoleums there is a dark side of everything beautiful.
