Cementerio de Humahuaca (3xPiP)

Cementerio de Humahuaca (3xPiP)
Cemeteries don't have to look sombre as this one shows.
Humahuaca is a small colonial town founded in the late 16th century. It lies at 2939m in the far North of Argentina, in the Quebrada de Humahuaca, an old Inca route which has been inscripted as UNESCO world Heritage in 2003.

Wie dieses Beispiel zeigt, müssen Friedhöfe nicht düster aussehen.
Humahuaca ist eine im Norden Argentiniens auf 2939m gelegene kleine Kolonialstadt, die im späten 16. Jh gegründet wurde. Sie liegt in der Quebrada de Humahuaca, einer alten Inka-Handelsroute, die 2003 zum Weltkulturerbe ernannt wurde.

Thank you, Graham! Yes, it's very arid there, a semi- desert with cacti. Only along the river and in the rainy season it's green.

Herzlichen Dank, Karin! Ja komisch, dort hat mich der Kitsch auch nicht gestört, dabei sind diese Schwäne mega-kitschig;-)

Gudrun, I love love love these photos. What a marvelous cemetery! The more "modern" we get, the more boring our cemeteries become. Why not be colorful and creative with death - it can't be cured anyway!

Thank you so much, Diane! Latin American cemeteries definitely look more positive than ours, much nicer to remember people in colourful surroundings! Our modern cemeteries also are plain boring, even the flowers look the same everywhere- begonias and low maintenance evergreens....
