A recent tour of Highgate Cemetery resulted in these photos. A worthwhile trip and highly recommended. I would have liked longer to take photos but wasn't allowed to separate from the guided group. It would have been good to have wandered off on one's own! This is the entrance to The Egyptian Avenue flanked by Egyptian style columns and obelisks.

The association of the Egyptian style of architecture with the memorialization of the dead was a natural one. An avenue, lined with tombs, leads up to the Circle of Lebanon

Der Highgate Cemetery ist der schönste Friedhof Europas. Er kann als Tagesausflug ab London besucht werden. Die Grabsteine verfallen und überwuchert, mit Engel-Statuen. Perfekt, um schöne Gothic Foto Shootings zu machen. Es ist ein Geheimtipp für deine Reise nach London.
Highgate Cemetery has almost 180,000 burials spread over 37 acres on both sides of Swain’s Lane. Legacy denizens of Highgate Cemetery include Karl Marx.
