Around the World - Part 2

 

Torrance County, New Mexico

An article in the April 20, 2013 Wall Street Journal written by Lee Mindel:

America does not have great cemeteries because of our fascination with youth culture.  But places like Sweden do.  Skogskyrkogarden Cemetery, was designed to focus on death, but it is really about nature and life.  Spread over 250 pine-covered acres, it is now a Unesco World Heritage Site owing to its modernist cahpels by architect Gunnar Asplund.  And Greta Garbo is buried there.
