Nashville: Mount Olivet Cemetery

This cemetery was by far one of the most amazing I have ever seen. Not only is it absolutely enormous, but it houses the following features:

1. Pyramid! (This grave is the star of the cemetery. Truly worth any tourist visit).

2. Sphinx

3. Mausoleums

4. Tree stump tombstones

5. Globe tomb

6. Masonic tombs

7. "Creepy girl from The Ring" tomb

8. Forlorn angel tombs

9. Obelisks

Now that you know what you're in for, take a look at some photos:

1. Pyramid

Side view of the pyramid in color

Pointing straight up to heaven

Really creepy inscription

2. Sphinx

Close up of the sphinx, who guards the pyramid

3. Mausoleums

These enormous structures greet visitors as soon as they enter the cemetery

They stand in a line right beside each other

Here is a smaller one I found in the middle fo the cemetery

4. Tree stump tombstones

This tree tombstone looks as though it is covered with moss, but it is actually rust

It looks like a smaller tree is trying to climb the larger tree

This has some tree imagery, but is not as natural in appearance

5. Globe tomb

Although not very visible, this black sphere is actually a globe. Indonesia can be seen from this angle.

6. Masonic tombs

There is a masonic square and compass in the center of this tomb

7. "Creepy girl from The Ring" tomb

A side view

Here she is reaching over the tombstone, her face forever hidden.

I cannot believe how creepy this looks...Like she's above to come through the TV

8. Forlorn angel tombs

This Mother Mary was particularly interesting, because she actually stood at my height, instead of towering above me, so I felt like I could look her in the eye.

9. Obelisks

10. Other interesting items

Fake flowers were all over the cemetery. I guess because it is so hot, rela flowers would not survive very long.
