Lima Peru Cemetery

Posted by Shawn Worlow Tuesday, November 17, 2009
This was the first official cemetery in Lima and was inaugurated in 1808 by the Viceroy Abascal. The designer was the well-known master builder and priest Matías Maestro. There are more than 766 mausoleums in the neoclassic style and among them are fascinating statues and monuments inspired by Saints and theological virtues. This was the largest cemetery I have ever been in. Tomorrow I will post a wide picture of the cemetery from a nearby mountain top.
