500px provided description: Any city that has been around for more than a few hundred years has a huge variety in their cemeteries. Some cities are still extra special though, and in Barcelona is the Cemetery on Montjuic. Overlooking the container port (I guess the dead people didn't complain too much about their view being uglified) is a hillside of enormous tombs, alongside more modest graves, and even modern "apartment blocks for the dead" - massive tombs, packed 24-wide & 6-high with dead people.

We walked from the bottom to the top, in about 90 minutes. Unfortunately the associated museum of funeral carriages was closed, which was what we really wanted to see... [#travel ,#architecture ,#cemetery ,#spain ,#graveyard ,#barcelona ,#tomb ,#Catalu?a/Catalunya]
