Teave
Kiired faktid: Saate jalutada viktoriaanliku monumendi ja kõrgete tammepuude vahel looklevatel vankriteedel, kus marmorist inglid ja graniidist obeliskid kaunistavad rohelisi haljasalasid. Suffragett Susan B. Anthony ja orjanduse vastane Frederick Douglass puhkavad haudadel, tänu millele ajalugu tundub sageli vestlusena minevikuga.
Esiletõstmised: Susan B. Anthony hauakivi meelitab külastajaid, kes jätavad pärast riiklikke valimisi väikseid münte ja värskeid roose, mõnikord on hommikuks kivi peal kümneid pakkumisi. Vaiksed pärastlõunad toovad kuulda jalatsite kriiksu pakitud mullal ja marmorist pinna jahedat puudutust, muutes nikerdatud näod ja karestunud sissekanded üllatavalt lähedaseks.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Wear comfortable, sturdy shoes; many paths are gravel or uneven.
- Bring a zoom lens for sculptural details and a wide lens for landscape and monument group shots.
- Visit early in the day on weekdays to avoid weekend visitors and funeral traffic.
- Pick up a cemetery map at the office or download one in advance to locate notable graves quickly.
