I’m currently holidaying in Scotland, and today I visited Edinburgh (been several times before) however today I made my way around to the beautiful grave yards here.
I could walk/sit looking at the old graves and tombs for hours. I find them hugely relaxing and amazing to admire.
Anyone else do this? |

You should do the ghost tour they do. You visit graveyards at night. Obviously not ideal in the Summer months,want it nice and dark |

I mow the lawn in my village graveyard.
The old dude who used to do it struggled one day so I helped him out and the sneaky bugger somehow angled me into it weekly.
The Highgate cemetery guided tour was one of the best things I have ever done. The history and symbolism on the graves are really interesting. |
