This part of the cemetary was somewhat like the section I had previously explored. There were massive monuments and mosuleums, with intricate designs and strategic placement. However there were still many differences. Some of the most memorable aspects about the tour was the fact that some of the monuments looked like logs with a very natural look even though they were made out of stone. Also the scenery was absolutely gorgeous. Their were all kinds of different types of flowers and plants. The lakes were also very beautiful. One especially was very eye catching and unique with tree roots sprouting up around the border. The bridges across the lakes were very convienent and added much beauty as well.
I learned that the sculptures on the monuments of past prominant leaders in history do not reflect the actual physical characteristics of the deceased, rather they act purley as representations of their acheivements. Also many of the histories behind the well known last names such as lunken and how their fortunes came about were very different from what I would have assumed. For example one gained their fortunes from farming and fruit. One main question still lingers in my mind. I still would like to know on average how much the big mosuleums cost and how much the spaces cost.
