Pere Lachaise cemetery

I don't know if it exists elsewhere, but at the Pere Lachaise cemetery there is an area called the "remembrance garden" where the ashes of the deceased are scattered in a grassy area. There is no grave, no plaque, nothing except your memories.
My dad would have been 90 years old today so I went where he was "burried" years ago.
This photo has no relation to that particular area, I saw it on a grave and it has catched my eye. the weather was warm with a taste of spring so I took a long walk and many pictures.

Fascinating, I'd never heard of such a thing!

J'adore Père Lachaise. So many interesting things to see. I never knew about the remembrance garden though. Nice capture of this urn which has seen better days.
